Here, I have a question. How far ahead can I upload my comics? Can I put them in the folders weeks ahead or only the day ahead or what (I date my comics)?
And into which folder do I put them? So far, I put them in both the public_html and the workspace folders...does it make a difference?
Aaaaannnndddd, can I create subfolders for my images,data and comics? i.e. can I create seperate folders inside /images/ so I knwo exactly what is what or should I just print of some key? It would come in really handy when I start to put up more comics (I could folder them by month, storyline, year, etc).<P>Thanks Alot!!!

You can upload your comics as far ahead as you'd like, the further the better IMO.<P>Only ever upload your comics into the /workspace/ side of things - it's less confusing for the AutoKeen, and will cut down on the ammount of server space you use.<P>You can't create subdirs ( folders )in /comics/, at least as far as I'm aware - I don't know if anyone's actually tried. You can in /images/ but then things get messy, as you'll have to do a workaround to get AutoKeen to pull the images from there.<P>The /data/ folder is only used for the <a href=http://members.keenspace.com/storylinep ... oryline</a> dropdown, and is a great way of keeping track of the story, you'd be well advised to check it out.<P>------------------

When I said "things get messy..." I's reffering to using subdirs ( folders ) in your images directory to organise your comics. For any other images ( or files for that matter ) it's not an issue; you can create subdirs ( as for how, that depends on your FTP program ), upload your images, and link to them as you would anything else ( e.g., <font face="courier new"><img src=/images/goodies/goodie1.jpg></font> )<P>------------------

Okay, instead of opening another post, I'm gonna ask here:<P>If I <i>wanted</i> to put folders in my image directory, how would I do that? You said I would have to get around keenspace...when I would put the img src code up, how would I ref to it?<P>I am going to upload a fair amount of images in the near future for a 'goodies' page, ontop of my small pre-rant images that I like to do, and I need to have some sort of system. Thanks alot!
