Ok, I know it’s not PS itself that does the slicing, but I’m completely new to PS(to a lot of things graphics/web related actually) and forgot the name already of the associate program. Anyway, what’s happening is, I’ve downloaded a template that I want to use for a site I’m working on. It has a graphic in the upper left corner that I want to keep, but several things I want to get rid of. Have it pretty much where I want it, but when it slices, it picks the very bottom of that graphic, and then runs the entire way across the page. Not sure if I’m explaining this well or not, but I’m trying. 🙂

Anyway, I don’t want it to take the whole width of the page, I want it to stop right after the graphic so that when I pull it into Dreamweaver, I can remove that portion and put something else there that I want.

First, did any of that make sense? Second, can anyone help out a complete newbie here?

Thanks!
Shawn

Shawn,

If you’re using DW, I would recommend that you edit your sliced image with Fireworks, not Photoshop or ImageReady.

Photoshop is good for generating the original image and slicing it, but not for modifying an image once it has been sliced.
