    where to store images

    Hi,

    I just installed Umbraco, and now I want to implement a custom design. I wonder where I have to store the images for my website interface.

    I see that in the Umbraco backend there is a tab 'Media', but there I can only images one at a time. I just need to know where I can store the images for my design.

    Thanks for your help,

    Hi Anthony

    I usually just create a "images" folder in the root on the file-system. I think that is a very common practice. It's not recommended to use the media section in Umbraco for this, unless you do not have webserver access somehow.

    Hope this makes sense.

    Yes, a folder in the root called something like 'images' is the thing to do for any fixed assets that make up your page design.
    Don't upload anything you don't want the editors to change in media and don't put things they don't need to change in there either as you'll just confuse them at best with things they don't need to know about.
