Photoshop Workshop - Lesson 8
Creating Mouseover Buttons
Creating Mouseovers
Mouseovers require at least two images : one that loads when the Web
page loads, and one that loads when the mouse is moved "over" the image.
In order to minimize visual disharmony, the text on the two images
must appear exactly the same size and in the same place. The two
mouseover images must be the same size if one replaces the other.
It is possible to "mouseover" one image and have a different image
change. In that case, there are three images involved; images two and three
(the ones that change) must have the same dimensions.
