Graphics on the Web!

I have spent much too much time "grazing" for graphics on the web, a most enjoyable pastime! One of my favorite graphics artists is VikiMouse at the Mouse Pad. Her graphics show some of the principles I consider most important: clarity, color, quick loading and appropriate to the page on which they are found (she has such a selection it is easy to find the "right" thing for almost any type of page).

There are many many other fine designers out there and some of the URL's for them are below. Just remember that images are not (usually) the reason for the page and should ADD to, not detract from, the content! Now on to the gifs, graphics and goodies ;)

Imagemaps

I think the best way to create image maps is to make "fake" ones. Client side image mapping isn't supported by all browsers, and server side image mapping is kind of a pain. But you can easily make a fake one by chopping up your image into its composite parts and wrapping <A HREF> tags around each element, making sure you have border=0. Usually an image map is one big graphic that takes way too long to load anyway. You can get a freeware program that will chop up your big image and create the HTML code to put it all back together.

However, if you still want to try making a real image map, there is a good image map tutorial, which includes links to image mapping software.
