[WSG] Slicing With Photoshop
Hi, I have some questions about slicing in photoshop. First of all, I noticed that when I slice and save it with the css settings instead of tables, photoshop uses the x and the y axis thingy to put the layout in order which means everyhting cannot move ... I wanted to know how to center the layout if it was not a whole page...? Second, I want to know what the default layout settings, the width is. I sometimes try 800*600 but I hate it because it is too small and wanted to know what the default if for people with 1024*768 or whatever it is...

Re: [WSG] Slicing With Photoshop
To move your sliced images to another place on the page, place all the stuff ImageReady (Photoshop) generates inside another div !-- generated slices here --/div, give the enclosing division position: relative and control its position on the page as you wish. I don't understand your question about default layout settings. If you're asking how wide to make your total image before you slice it, you would be better off using 800x600 since statistics indicate that more people use that setting than the higher ones. However, it depends on your audience. It may be that most of the people who view your site will use a higher setting on their screen and you can get away with creating a larger graphic.

Second, I want to know what the default layout settings, the width is. I sometimes try 800*600 but I hate it because it is too small and wanted to know what the default if for people with 1024*768 or whatever it is... I'm assuming you are asking what the best default monitor resolution you are going to lay-out your webpage for. If you look at rought stats: http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp It shows that aroung 1/3 of browsers have are using 800x600. And roughly 4/5 have either 1024x768 or 800x600. If you want a lay-out that looks ok with almost everybody, try making an 800x600 layout that can adapt to 1024x768. - regnard mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ . ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ Proud presenters of Web Essentials 04 http://we04.com/ Web standards, accessibility, inspiration, knowledge To be held in Sydney, September 30 and October 1, 2004 See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **
