Fixing My Layout

[computerpros]

I got a question.....is PSP any good at making templates? (Also, how exactly would you do it if it is any good.)

It's very good for that, my fellow admin at AG makes most things in psp, including both our templates.

Wouldn't know how though, haven't used it in a while. Perhaps search for some web interface tutorials?

There are not many psp interface tutorials. As far as i know Nick tought him self how too. I also tought my self how to but i dont use the same method as nick. If you can give me which version you use i will try to find you a tutorial

Pinony 7 and Pixel 2 Life have some good tutorials. Pixel 2 life has tutorials for all versions and pinoy 7 is mostly psp 7

Well Thank you. I will figure it out.

My expertise is the pen tool, although when making interfaces, I usually use a combination of the pen tool and selections. If you are interested in learning about either, send me a PM and I'll write up a tutorial or two, or else talk to you over MSN on how you would do this.

Okay, I'll work on a tutorial once I get done with the presentation I'm working on.

I wouldn't recommend slicing. All it does is split up your images in blocks that you don't want creates bad HTML. My recommendation is to copy the pieces that you want, then export them. I find that it works much smoother.

Hmmm....I thought that might be the case. Now...what about buttons. What fonts should I use so that they still look ok and you can see them at a small size.

[Eric]

You could use something like verdana, or go for a pixel font. Usually I select my fonts on a case-by-case basis.

[Gojiita]

Most people like to use pixel fonts.
These are the most popular:

04b_03
04b_03b
04b_21

Keep browsing here. until you find your choice.

And incidentally, check out Dafont.com for more great fonts.

[n!ck]

But in PSP, in order to get smooth looking pixel fonts, you set the size to 6, not the generally accepted 8.

[Gojiita]

I thought eight was smooth enough. Anyway, I usually preferred size 6, lol. Neat, unobtrusive and visible.

Ok. Thank you all! I should have a pretty good template within a few days. I will show you guys when it is finnished.

[computerpros]

Well, it's done! Check it out:

It only looks good in MS Internet Explorer...

How would I make it more like the way it looks in MSIE in FF?
I guess I'll post in the coders board eh?
