About background colors, pictures, and sound

Using color as a background for your web pages

Whenever you select a color for a page, Microsoft FrontPage displays color palettes appropriate for your page. Types of color palettes include:

• Standard colors   This is the basic 16-color palette.
• Custom colors   When you define a custom color, it appears on this palette.
• Document's colors   These are the colors used on the current page.
• Theme colors   These are the colors used by the current theme.
• More colors   You can use this palette to define a custom color.

However, if the palettes do not display the color you want, you can create your own custom color that you can use for backgrounds, fonts, and so on. Any custom colors you define are saved and will be available the next time you use FrontPage.

Using a picture as a background

You can set a background picture for a page, and all page elements, such as text and graphics, will appear on top of the background picture. You can use pictures from a web site, a file system, the World Wide Web, or clip art. You can also set the background picture to be a watermark.

Note   Not all Web browsers support watermarks.

Using background sounds

When a site visitor opens a page, the sound is played. You can play the sound continuously, or play it a specified number of times.
