Batch import images

File import supports multiple selection - you use Control and Shift click to select images in batches, or select a folder and CopySafe will import all the images in that folder regardless of how many. When loaded into the CopySafe directory you have the option of selecting some or all images in the list to configure in batches or creating individual settings.

Saving large batches of images

When you have finished adjusting the size, image effects or targeted link, borders, colors and loading text messages to be displayed, click the Convert button. The next window will ask for a folder location to save into. CopySafe will encrypt and save more than 3000 images with just one click, saving them all to one page, or to newly created web pages for each individual image. Each image will displayed with its image name underneath.

Configuring the image settings

When you highlight an individual image you can then click the Configure button to set the image display preferences. To select all images listed you can use the Select All button. All the images highlighted can be encrypted on the one command - clicking the Convert button. You can also use Shift or Cntrl select to select groups of images. When importing, if a folder is selected, CopySafe will sort the content and import all the suitable images in that folder.

Selecting display styles

After selecting the images that you want to use, click on the CONFIGURE button. A preferences window will open in relation to the image that you have selected in the directory window. Select from the dropdown list the style of display that you wish for the selected image. When converting a batch of images many variations are possible:

  • Static image with no tricks.
  • Image hyperlink to the next page using a targeted frame. 
  • Begin with an image and display product info on mouse over. 
  • Begin with a text message and show the image on mouse over.
  • Swap one image for another on mouse over.

Several message areas are available to present navigation hints, exhibit particulars or purchasing instructions. A message can be shown in the image area as the pic downloads, in the status bar on mouse over and also in the image area on MouseOver.

Encryption

The most important area that image encryption protects is the downloading of the image by direct means after locating its path. CopySafe encrypted images are safe on the server because they cannot be viewed away from the registered web site. They are secure in the Temporary Internet Folder or Cache, and even safe from your server's webmaster.

Editing pages

The new page can be used as template to copy the image applet from for pasting onto existing pages with prepared copy. Or it can be used as the start page to build upon by adding extra images and text, etc.

Customizing the template

If you want to save time with batches, especially if all your pages need to have the same header and footer information, the template file can be edited to any look that you want. CopySafe will insert your image at the position of the insert code.

Uploading

When your pages are finished with the extra content added, simply upload them to your web site, ensuring that all the files produced by the program are in the same folder. It is that simple. Your original images are no longer needed and should not be on your web site.
