Download Link to New Catalog

By Amy • August 12th, 2008

I have updated the sidebar Catalog photo with codes to download the catalog for my blog customers, ladies go to the Members page for your choices of sizes and the ‘drop in’ code.*

*NEW* To non-members - Creating a Photo with Link to Catalog:*

>  click on the image (left) and download it to your computer (the image name is 08CatalogTN(1).jpg)
>  FTP it up to a folder on your server (ex. an /images folder) (view a tutorial on downloading SmartFTP on your computer and uploading a file–warning it shows how to upload a Wordpress plugin, however you will just be uploading to an images folder… you get the idea!)
>  Use the code below to map an HTML path to the photo and
   use this code in your sidebar or other HTML area of your site
>Remember to change out the yourdomain.com/images to your actual domain and the folder that you put it in!

LINK TO AMERICAN CATALOG:

<a href="http://www.stampinup.com/us/documents/us_fw_2008_sm.pdf" target="_blank">
<img src="http://yourdomain.com/images/08CatalogTN.jpg" border="0" /><br />
Click here to download</a> the new catalog!<br />

LINK TO CANADIAN CATALOG:

Right click on the photo (left) for the Canadian Cover
(thank you Andrea Walford for that scan!!)
 

The photo name (when you download it is 08CatalogTNca.jpg)

<a href="http://www.stampinup.com/ca/documents/ca_fw_2008_sm.pdf" target="_blank">
<img src="http://yourdomain.com/images/08CatalogTNca.jpg" border="0" /><br />
Click here to download</a> the new catalog!<br />

Some HTML 101:

  • the target="_blank" opens the PDf in a new window
  • the border="0" takes away the ugly blue line that sometimes shows up on a photo when it is hyperlinked
  • the <a href="…> is wrapped around an <img src="….> (image tag) for a hyperlinked image… don’t forget the </a> to close the hyperlink!

*NOTE:   Members are given code that ‘hotlinks’ to my site where the photos are stored.  I am sorry that I cannot give out this code to the public as it drives up my bandwidth. Thanks for your understanding!
