Distribution and Backup

If you later forget the address of your site, you can check your iDisk to see a listing of
sites. From the Finder, choose Go > iDisk > My iDisk, then open the Sites folder. The
names listed in your Sites folder represent your published sites. From that, you can
determine the path to a site by entering your personal information into the sample path:

http://homepage.mac.com/membername/sitename

Exporting Webpages as HTML Files

Integrating your Aperture webpages into your business’s website requires you to
thoroughly understand your website structure and web server. With some planning, you
can modify your home or access pages to provide links to your Aperture webpages.

You can also open your webpages in a standard HTML editor and make the changes
required for them to work in your site. You can add and revise the HTML code that
creates the page structure. You can plan how the pages link to the structure of your
website and provide additional items such as navigation buttons or links that normally
appear on your webpages. If you use a web design service to create and maintain your
site, you can supply your Aperture files to your service as a folder and allow them to
integrate your Aperture webpages. If you are your own webmaster, you can transfer
your Aperture web files to your web server or Internet service provider using a copying
method such as FTP, or using the transfer features of your webpage service.

You can export webpages that you’ve created in Aperture. When you export your
Aperture webpages, you can export them to a folder on your computer to keep them
organized in one place. You can name the folder and choose the image quality and file
types that are created. Aperture has web export presets you can choose that
automatically set up the export of webpages. You can choose an existing export preset
or create your own.

About Updating Web Galleries and Web Journals

When you update the images in a web gallery or web journal already posted to .Mac,
Aperture first checks to determine which images in a web gallery or web journal are
new or changed, and then exports only those images to temporary storage for
transfer to .Mac, saving time when updating large web galleries or web journals.
