图 16.13. The “Open Location” dialog window

The most typical schemes to open images with are:

file://

to open an image from a local drive

You can omit the “file://” prefix and open images simply by putting an absolute or relative path and filename in here.

The default base directory for relative paths depends on your operating system. It is typically /home/<username>/ on Linux, C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\My Images\ on Windows and /Users/<username>/ on Mac OS X.

ftp://

to open an image from a ftp server

http://

to load an image from a website
