I've seen alot of sites you guys have posted with images (Menu bars or something) with links that seem to be embedded into them. Is this possible with the use of just ps7, or do i need something like frontpage 2002 (Which i do not own, and will not download).

Example: http://www.roundpixel.org/index.php?splash=1

Nos.

PS7 will help you slice the images which will make your coding life easier.

Before I start anything, do you have any experience with HTML whatsoever?

A bit. To tell you the truth i just bought a domain name/space so that i can get deeper into web/gfx design. I know basic HTML, and am learning PHP.

So have at it ;)

Okay, lets start with slicing the image.

There's lots of tutorials on the net for slicing, so I won't have to repeat myself. So here's one I found quick, probably there's better ones out there: http://graphicssoft.about.com/gi/dynamic/offsite.htm?site=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.planetphotoshop.com%2Fspivey14.html

When you slice all the images and Save for Web... , open the output HTML file, scan the code for the images corresponding to the images you want to link and just link it. Concept's quite easy.

Say for example you're looking to link boobie32.jpg. Scan the code until you find something like <td><img src=boobie.jpg></td>, make it <td><a href="target.html"><img src="boobie.jpg" border="0"></td>

And just repeat for the rest of the images.
