I really really need to know how to make an imagmap using image ready cs2
please help!

Well, I'm using ImageReady CS, but I'll try to help you. Open your image >> Find the Rectangle Image Map Tool (you can also just click on P) >> Select the part of your image to want to map >> go to File >> Save Optimized As >> Choose HTML and Images.

i use both image ready and image mapper (free online tool that generates the code for you) for image maps. if the images are: not going to be equally sized; cannot be cut straight across or up and down; not rectangles; or you dont want it to be cut and you want to map the whole image, then skip to step 2

1. if you want all the slices to be equal or you know exactly how you want them cut up and down, then in imageready, go to slices >> divide slices >> (adjust the settings to what you want) ok >> file >> save optimized as >> (choose html and images) >> save.

2. after dividing and saving the slices / or if you want to make your own coordinates (image size aren't equal), then go to <a href="http://pcoward.com/imagemapper/">image mapper</a>. scroll down and click where it says "lets get started" >> (browse for you image and put in its width and height) >> stage 2 >> (follow the directions from there)

image mapper maps the image exactly how you'd need it and gives you the html code. but you will still need to upload all image slices to an image host on the web and insert the link where it has something like "images.jpg"

thanks ppl!!
