Images in two places?

When I create a photo gallery, I understand that FP automatically puts
images and info into the folder called 'photogallery.' I think FP is
creating thumbnail jpgs in the folder. Should the original sized jpg's
stay outside the folders listed along with the htm pages? It seems like
there would eventually be alot of jpg's out in the "field" and
unorganized. Should I move them to the images folder? Should I create
subfolders in the images folder? And if I should, how will FP know
where to look for them? Do I tell FP by moving the jpg's to the image
folder on my home computer and then publish the changed 'image' folder
to the remote site? Thank you so much for your help.

Hello Sam,

I am a novice, but have experience in your issue.

I think you can move those files around. I make new folders within FP to
store the images. I even have sub folders within the Image folder to store
related images. That keeps it neater and cleaner. Otherwise like you say
there are files all over the place.

Yes you are correct. You can drag and drop the image files into the image
folder and then publish. FP will match the remote site to the local (your
PC) site. I have not had any problems or broken links, or anything like
that from moving the files.
