hmmmm, think i know what you mean. you can put text over an image a number of ways.

you can have an image as a background in a table, table cell, layer or page background, this way you can have text ot any other html element on top of another, you can even put images over images.

Try learning to use Dreamweaver. It makes turning a sliced Photoshop template into a webpage WAAAAAAAAAY easy.

The code is:
Quote:
<TD "Rowspan-Goes-Here" background="Image-Goes-Here">Your text here</TD>

how about adding a scroll bar to and image, so the text in the image can be scroll (lotsa text, too much for image)
is this possible?

OK, try using (God forbid) an iframe. if you need to scrol the area. Otherwise if you inserted the image as the background of your table, then it should stretch to fit your text. The following link will teach you how to code a Photoshop Template into Dreamweaver. Just watch the video. It explains it pretty well.

You could also use scrolable div's.

He can also make the cell expand with the bg image. But it'll need to be able to tile. Your better of designing your sites from a bottom-up approach not the other way around.
But im not sure if the design will expand too. sometimes its hard.

<iframe src="http://index.html" name="frame1" scrolling="auto" frameborder="no" align="center" height = "250px" width = "250px">
</iframe>

Will that do?
