Please Note: You can only transload your Pagebuilder scrapbook images if they are already saved on a published WebTV page. However, images found or created on another site can be directly transloaded, with permission, by the standard system of isolating the URL of the page, image, or midi, then copying that URL by using CMD-A or Shift+arrow to select, then CMD-C, and going to
http://www.transloader.com or http://onnet-z.com/my_index.htm (offline 11/19/2001) or http://filedex.simplenet.com/. where you will paste (CMD-V) the URL in the appropriate place.
Transloaded files will appear on the main page of the directory you have chosen. They can be moved to a subdirectory while in File Manager, by using the "Rename" button. Click the radio button for the file, click "Rename", place the cursor in the box in front of the file name and type the subdirectory name followed by a slash: e.g., house.gif can be put in the vermont subdirectory by typing vermont/ in front of the image name to become vermont/house.gif. Then press the "Rename" button.
This is
not an advertisement for transloader.com or onnet-z.com (this site appears to have gone off the web --try FILDEX instead being sure to have te website URL copied) -- rather,
these sites are ones I have been able to work. My appreciation to Ella, who steered me to these sites when another closed its Internet doors. If you want to try the transload process with other sites, check out Beth's site.

.Transload One Page with Text and/or Images
This system does transload one complete page,
but you may need to rewrite some to accommodate the new
host: banners, spacing. If you are transloading your WebTV site, you must visit it before going to the transloader. You will need to upload the images separately and have the links on your page directed to the correct address at Freepages.

- Go to http://www.transloader.com
- The URL of your last visited site will be on the line for file transfer. Click on "Proceed to Step #2":
- URL should be entered from previous page
- FTP Host, enter users.freepages.rootsweb.com
- FTP DIR (directory), enter your "community" followed by _html.
Example, genealogy_html
- RENAME (optional), enter name you want for Freepages file, ending
with .html, same as original
- FTP USER NAME, enter your Freepages name without ~
- FTP PASSWORD, enter Freepages password
- Click "Transload File" key
- Wait for system to automatically go through steps.
- When you see the "Transfer complete" statement then
