Hi, I've a question regarding, preparing the navigational tabs for a ul background. Would someone take a look, offering suggestions on correct slicing so as not to leave it to ImageReady's, sometime non- standards solution? http://working.bushidodeep.com/remix/remix_bg.jpg

If the problem you're having seems to be the page Imageready generates, then you only need to change the code on the generated page it seems. Use the guides that you pull out from the rulers, then you can slice with the slicing tool. At least the generated page will give you the x y placement
