138701 2003-04-25 01:30:00 I noticed that when i try to save some images that i only get a block of the image, then i right click on another part of the image and I save another part of it, then i look at the html and they have parts of a whole image cut into blocks then tile it up on the web page. Why do they do that? to stop people from saving the image, or would the image load faster?

They use a progume called Macromedia Fireworks or Photoshop or something like that to do it.

The images are in tables & if a designer wants an image go over both cells they split the image up so it would work over both cells

I did a course with AUT called webalive & they coved that, Give me a few min’s & I will try & find that bit about splitting up images.

But if that was the case it's hardly likely they'd have the images for download broken up into segments for tables/frames...

138707 2003-04-25 06:55:00 I recall a recent conversation with a customer:

Me - have you got a digital image of your logo?
Him - Yes, it's on my existing website - download it from there, only thing it's broken into pieces by the original designer
