Refresh Grainy Thumbnail Images in FrontPage

You can resample and restore grainy and washed out thumbnails in the FrontPage photo galleries by opening the Photo Gallery Properties dialog box and changing the thumbnails' size. Right-click anywhere on the photo gallery in 'Normal view', and click 'Photo Gallery Properties' on the shortcut menu. Under the 'Add' button, select the thumbnail you want to resize. Do ensure the 'Maintain aspect ratio' box is checked. Under 'Thumbnail size', enter 110 in the Width box, and click OK. Repeat steps 2 through 4 for each thumbnail that needs restoring.
If you need to repeat this procedure on the thumbnails in a photo gallery, first you must return the width of each thumbnail to its original 100 pixels.

Create a Discussion Group on Your FrontPage Web Site

The Discussion Web Wizard is used to create discussion groups on Web sites. By using the threaded discussion feature of the discussion group, you can communicate with your clients, receive their feedback, and respond to their comments in real time. For example, if a client wants the design theme changed, you can change it and receive an opinion back immediately.

To create an instant chat room that you can use to communicate with your client, all you need to do is create a folder on the customer's Web server and then run the Discussion Web Wizard. You can use the discussion group to ask questions, comment on changes, and request text from the client. Open the Web site in which you want to create a discussion group. On the File menu, point to New > Page or Web. In the New Page or Web task pane, under New from template, click Web Site Templates. Click the Discussion Web Wizard. Select the 'Add to current Web check box', and click OK. Follow the directions on your screen to create a discussion group. When you're finished with the job, just delete the folder that contains the discussion group.
