-. Copy these images into subdirectory Fimages which is under the great violets program directory. On the development machine I use the VbProject directory as a program directory. Some of the other machines use Great Violets under the Program Files directory.
+  - Run MultiRename to make all image files lowercase.
-. Run Great violets and individually enter each flower and plant picture for the violet name. Do not use the program to point to the filename beginning with an underscore. These are the thumbnails and should not be referenced - the program will automatically pick them up.

+==== Changing the header and footer of the Great Plants Output HTML List ====
-Changing the header and footer of the Great Plants Output HTML List
 The publish button on Great Plants produces a list of violets that have been checkmarked in the EditRecords portion of the database. This listing includes a header and footer that are output into the html pages. To change the header or footer, edit the file named "@listfo.txt". The file can contain html formatting info such as fonts, heading level, etc. The nonstandard tags "tghead" and "tgfoot" define delimiters for the heading and footing respectively. Edit everything between the tag "taghead" and "/taghead" for the header and between "tgfoot" and "/tgfoot" for the footer. Text anywhere else in the file will not be included in the heading and footing.
