Helo All,
I am pretty confused in slicing my following layout

[epreeminent.com...]

The problem is that i want to have those 1 pixel dark grey borders around menus and content place thru tables and not want them to be as an image or image in the table background, how can i do that?

Secondly look at the weblink
[epreeminent.com...]

If you save it and open it in Dreamweaver you will find that every content box is in seperate table and it has also that 1 pixel grey border along with the menu, it has been done by giving grey background to cells ...has he slice the whole layout in photoshop or has he made the table strcuture first in dreamweaver or frontpage and then put the sliced weblaouyt in it ..because when i slice the layout in ps it always have a single table..

sorry for the bad english but i hope u all can understand my question

Hi ferhanz

Your not really supposed to post links to your designs here. Take a look at the TOS [webmasterworld.com]

Slicing that entire page seems like overkill to me

You could try plopping your 4 sections:

1. top links & logo
2. banner image and text
3. page content and left nav
4. footer

Into separate divs and using CSS to position them might be a better answer. Pages where there is a lot of negative space like this need not be made using image slices and will benefit in many ways as a result.

Then you can create classes for your page elements (like a list of links) to style them e.g. the grey borders you describe.
