An easy way to obtain the urls of images on Webtv PageBuilder "published" webpages and other non-Webtv webpages is to use:
http://source.domania.net/
OR
Using my area as an example, the basic format for urls of scrapbook images that are on "published" webpages follows:
| The main url is : http://community.webtv.net Add the following to the main url to obtain the url of an image: | |
| 1. Add the account name: | /Pwilliamandx |
|
2. Add the name of the "published" webpage the image was added to: | /images |
| 3. Add the word: | /scrapbookFiles or /media (see chart below) |
| 4. Add the name of the image: | /importD1.gif |
|
So the url for the image below is: http://community.webtv.net/Pwilliamandx/images /scrapbookFiles/importD1.gif  | |

NOTE: Each area of the Webtv Art Gallery has a different subdirectory name in addition to "clipart". The best way to find the url of Webtv clipart is to add the image to a webpage, publish it, and then go to either the Domania or Expert HTML source viewers/url extractors listed at the top of this page to find the url of the image. | ||
Webtv Art Gallery | ||
| Use | Filename | Use |
| clipart/ Maps_n_Globes |
mp00020_.gif | mp00020_.gif |
| URL to use | ||
|
http://community.webtv.net/Pwilliamandx/images2/ clipart/Maps_n_Globes/mp00020_.gif | ||

Note: As of August 1999, there is a great debate raging in news:alt.pagebuilder.help whether the correct url for images and webpages contains a -1 (or -2, etc) after community or not.
http://community.webtv.net/accountname
or
http://community-1.webtv.net/accountname
Images show up more consistently without the -1 or -2 in the urls.
