I'm referring to using guides inside Photoshop. But I'm not talking about using the slice tool. I place my guides, then draw a selection for the image I want. Then I CTRL + SHIFT + C (which copies from all layers) and paste into a new file, then I export that. I know it sounds like more work, and it might actually be, but I'm so fast at this method that it probably balances out. Plus I don't have to clean up the extra files and code that Photoshop or Image Ready generates.

Hi, Andy... I use PS for most of my designs and end up slicing them from within PS. I do manual slicing in PS, but that's tricky...one pixel off and...well, you know. But you suggest no slicing from within PS, and to use guides...what guides are you referring to, if not the guides within PS?

I started my career as a designer so I'm thoroughly familiar with slicing. My suggestion is to NOT use slices from within PS of FW or IR. It may seem like it makes things simpler, but it really doesn't. My suggestion is to make extensive use of guides, then manually select each area you want to slice. This way you ONLY get the areas you need as images and you can name each image whatever you like. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:256303 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
