After all, time is money.

It will be easier for you to do if you already have a folder called images inside your site root, If you haven’t already defined a site or site root then please see the tutorial on defining a new site in dreamweaver. My basic root directory consists of a defined site name which would be your website name like dreamweavertutorial and inside the root of this site will be a folder called images.
