Do you mean you want to make the boxes with HTML or graphics

no, psp doesn't. what you need to do is use divs and position them right over the little boxes in your pic on a notepad program or something, (it takes ALOT of guessing & checking) or you can get paint out and measure the little boxes :)

Please don't reply if you don't know what you are talking about (this is in general, not to specific people). That confuses people allot :)

this is a start if you can use CSS. for each div you have to replace the #'s with numbers. Top means amount of pixels from top and left means amount of pixels from left. Just fill in something (in between 500 and 500 becuase that's the size of the image) and see where it appears.

Another way would be a table. Just set your image as the background of the table and make the table the size of 500x500. Then make cells for the parts that you want to have text in. OR you can use the image slicer from PSP that generates a table coding for you. Then all you need to do is for the parts that need text in the table cells you set the image itself as background and then add the text in the cell (normally the image is inside the table cell, when slicing with psp)

Good luck, if you have any questions just ask :)

Love,
Mirna

ok on paint i found out the sizes of the boxes and what not but when i put them in it is to high and to far to the left now i figure it is because it counts it from the website. any help on finding the exact spot for the boxes?

you just have to guess thats what i did eventually you'll get it.The very top of the page is 0 and the very bottom of the page is like 3000 so itll probly be somewhere around 300 ish
