:(

I bought a template that I want to use for a site.
I have figured out pretty much how to edit the slices to change text.
However, in the horizontal 'menu' of the site, each time I change the text to what I want it to be, and I save for web, the text comes out too small and/or cut off.
I have tried everything I can think of, including resizing the slices, but somehow because they are horizontally aligned, any change I make, affects both the specific slide and the ones next to it.
I just cant figure it out.
any help is very much apreciated!

Can you edit the text in Photoshop instead of ImageReady? Maybe make a new layer in Photoshop then bring it back into IR and make a new slice? I'm no ImageReady guru and have messed with it exactly once. It did seem contrary when it came to changing things though.

Hi.
I am using photoshop, not imageready.
If I create a new layer and delete the old one, then the html that comes with the template loses the links to the new slices.
My only choice seems to be to find a way to simply edit the text within the slice while maintaning some sort of 'look' integrity.
alas, I cant seem to find a way...
