Re: Image Slicing in Image Styler

I can think of two ways to do this off the top of my head:

1) Create an table with a border of 0.  Create a row with only one cell and 
put your top image in that row.  Then create a row with two cells, and put 
the side image in the first one.  Be sure to set the width to exactly the 
pixel width of your side image.  Then put your text in the second cell.  The 
edges of the images should meet (you may have to explicitly set 
borderpadding and cellpadding to 0 in your table).  If it doesn't work, then 
first create an outer table and set the bgcolor to the same as the 
background color of your images.  Put one row with one cell in this table, 
and in this cell put the same table as above.  Then set the bgcolor of the 
text cell to the same as the background color of the rest of the page.  Then 
the places where the images don't quite meet will be covered by the same 
background color due to the outer table  (If you need help, I can send you 
some code.)  This is somewhat awkward, but its advantage is that it's all 
HTML.

2) The second way is easier, but requires some CSS.  Put your image in and 
then just write your text, but use CSS to reposition your text from below 
the image to up in the blank space within it.  (I can also send you some 
code for this if you need it.)
