please help

I’m a new freeway user and have a basic question. I want to know how do you fill a browser window with colour rather than just the web page your designing?

What you want is known as a background colour. It’s what appears
behind everything on your page.

By default Freeway gives you a white background, but you can change
it to any colour you like. Here’s a couple of ways:

  1. Make sure nothing is selected on your page, and go to the Colors
    palette (or the Web Colors palette) and choose a colour. Freeway will
    apply it to the page itself. Note that it won’t extend beyond the
    edges of the page boundary in Freeway, but it will fill your browser
    window.

  2. Again, make sure nothing is selected, and choose the brush button
    in the Inspector palette. The first panel you will see is called
    Background. Choose a colour from the list. The handy thing with this
    method is that you can also choose an image to apply to the
    background - but I guess that’s for another day.

Great, thanks alot.

One other thing. I’m building my own site to show my design work i’ve done. I’m a art director by trade. What do you think is the best way of making a gallery to show my work. It will need to show about 10-20 pieces of work. I’d like people to click on the thumbnail to enlarge it and maybe a scroll bar to flick through. Any ideas?
