Insert an Image

It is important to remember that Dreamweaver is an html editor, not an image editor. Make all adjustments to your image in Fireworks, Photoshop, the Gimp, etc., before inserting it into your Dreamweaver document. This includes resizing the image, as you risk losing quality and correct proportions.

  • Make sure your image is saved in the local folder you chose for your site.
  • You can insert in in one of two ways:

      1. the image icon (tree) from the Insert window
      2. Insert > Image
  • A window appears asking for the location of the image you would like to insert. Find the image and select it.
  • The image should appear in your document.
