Hello all,

I have been trying to learn how use Image Styler to design navigation bars
which fold across the upper left corner of a web page.  In other words, a
bar down the left and one across the top that joins in at the left top
corner.  I have seen this done on many web pages and I can't figure out how
they do it.

When I make my corner graphic in Image Styler or use one of their templates,
when I select the whole image it makes a HUGE rectangle selected.  I have
tried to use the auto slicer in hopes that the image will be cut down to
size and that I'll be able to add text in the center main portion on the
page.  But because the graphic is so large....there is no way to add HTML
code in that space because it would be in the image.  (This is very hard to
explain).

My question is... how can I made this image fold over the corner joined
properly and still have a way to write text in the space where text usually
goes.  Will I have to take the image to another program and cut around it
and then slice it in order to write text in the main part of the page?  And
then how can I get the image to go smoothly together at the upper left
corner?

I realize this is a montage of questions, but I just can't figure out how
people do this... Please advise.  I have PS and Image Styler for Windows
95/98.

Thank you,
Lonna
