Slicing For Web

Hi, I'm new to Photoshop, and was wondering, how exactly do you slice and save the images for a webpage. I already made my template. A not so good one, but now that im done making it, how do i go about slicing it?
O, and a OFF-TOPIC question, a few members didnt like my sig, they said it was to big, is this sig better?

i have no idea about slicing.... i just do save all the components by hand and put them together in dreamweaver but..... that sig is ok me thinks

lazyroll - Why the fsck would you post if you don't know the answer? Have you not listened to any of my/our comments? Only post when you need to - and you definately didn't need to then. Please have a bit of maturity about you - it helps if you use capitals and proper punctuation, too. It pisses me off when people spend two seconds to post a reply to a question that they don't know the answer, too - and you do it regularly. Please stop before I get really mad.

As to the question, it's kinda hard to explain, but there is a good tutorial at www.hybridfusion.com. It teaches you to make a layout (which you have already done), slice it, save it for web, and then use it as a website. I found it useful myself. Either that or read the manual - it has some useful information about the basic tools in it.

Oh and that sig isn't bad - but do you really need links to your sites underneath? Just use your sig as a link to your site. :D

Thx trhaynes, I hope it helps me.

Okey open your template and take save for web.
Now press Ctrl + R that should open up some messuring tools on around the canvas.
Okey now take the arrow tool so that you can take blue lines from the white messuring tool.
Just drag down and you'll see what I mean.
Now you have to figure out how you should slice the layout.
Now put the blue lines the way you want it to become sliced.
Buttons, windows...etc...
When you are ready with this there should be a button on the bottom of the tool bar that puts the layout in to image ready...
Now when you have image ready open take create slices from guide lines.
Now there should come some numbers of the corners of the squares you made with the blue lines.
Now take the knife from the tool bar...Not the first knife but the second on if you are using photoshop 6 or 7...
Now you should have a lot of squares all over the template.
Now you need to make the images just the way you want them...
Now click on one of the squares and you'll see that the square changes the color a bit...right?
Now you are able to drag the squares in to a bigger square by dragging from the right to left.
This you should do because you will probably have a lot of squares for example in the main window on your site.
and you want it just to become one.
So make all the windows just as one big square same with the buttons...
Another thing that helps you is if you click o a square you can put a name in the tool bar that has animations , slices options in it...
Now put a name for all the images...this will make it easier to code once you have come this far.
You'll just know what is what.
So after all this is done take save as slices and html/code...
Or something like this...
Now it will save all the images and make up a html code for the whole site.

Okey not sure if you understand anything about what I just tried to explain...
I'm at work now and I don't have photoshop or imageready here so I'm just trying to remember every step of the way to slice a site.

This is the way you should do it if you want image ready to slice your site and code it for you.
This can be good if you are just starting making sites but the best way is to slice it by hand as lazyroll does it.

Thx Censored, Helps, but also i am the kind of person that needs pics as examples.
