Huh? I have FrontPage sites. I have an images directory that I import all
the images into. All the images are called from that directory. No
duplication.

I haven't had any problems.
http://www.sarasotaboating.com/
http://www.sterlingcapitalcompany.com/
are two FrontPage sites on my server. They both work fine and, from the
clients standpoint, if they know MS Word or virtually any word processing
program, they can update their own site easily.
For my own sites, I don't use it, although I really like the FP editor to
work on pages.

Or they may not be able to use anything else. Not all clients want to pay
someone to update their site all the time and I'd much prefer to turn the
keys over to the client and just get a lump sum for design and then get an
occasional fee for fixing any problems or changes they can't handle down the
road.
