Hi guys,
I am pretty new to photoshop - I'm currently using CS 8.0. I recently was asked by a company to design an image for their "under maintenance page". I did this and sent off a few examples to the guy. He replied, can you please send them in html format. I figured out that I could slice the image up into smaller files using the slice tool and then save as "html with images". I sent these off and his reply was, "These aren't actually HTML pages, just a big graphic cut up into parts. I'd like you to create a real HTML page for each design."
I'm pretty confused now with what I'm supposed to do, but don't want to ask as I'll look like a dummy and that I'm not up for the job. Can someone please point me in the right direction? It's a very basic page - that simply contains an image saying the site is under maintenance.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards, Digger

You want to slice out say the main logo or whatever it is and code it by hand.
Example:
Instead of using images & tables which is what CS produces, use a single image and a background color (replace [color] with the hex) and also add positioning etc.
Example:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled</title>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body { background: [color]; }
img { border: 0; }
-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
<img src="image.ext" alt="image alt" />
</body>
</html>

choose "jump into imageready" and there you can save (or was it optimized) as... it will be the html and all the bits and pieces you are referring too.
