Putting the entire back or front of car in the air on Jack stands

Hey guys, I have a 2.5 tone hydraulic jack (really nice) and 2 Jack stands. My question is what point can I use on the front/back of the car to get it in the air to put the jacks under… should I do one side at a time? (in the front there is a body point right in the center that looks good) Also, where should I put the jack stands?? (on the normal jack lift points or...? I am guessing that if I lift it one side at a time, the jack lift points will be in use... so i can't put the jack stand there) Thanx!

that front center area you speak of is it... also put the jack stands under the rocker panels. they are right under both doors f/b nearest to each respective wheel.
