How To Slice An Image Into Smaller Images

Introduction

When you are creating HTML pages containing image, a common task is to slice up a big image into multiple smaller images, for example if you want to place the small images in <TABLE> cells. (Although for some uses, you may be able avoid having to do this slicing by using Imagemaps).

(If you don't understand HTML then get yourself a good HTML Tutorial).
  • If you have a good quality professional painting software, it may include a built-in function to slice images up like this for you.

  • If not, all is not lost, with a bit of inventiveness it's possible to slice images up in this way using the Paint accessory that comes with Windows.
In this tutorial, I'll show you how to slice images up using the Paint accessory. There are five chapters in this tutorial:
  1. Slicing Images Vertically Into Two Segments

  3. Slicing Images Horizontally Into Two Segments
