In Photoshop, let's say you designed a web page which has text buttons and you want to chop it up and convert to HTML.

My method would be to just create slices in ImageReady and do a save-as optimized. This would create individual images, which is great, but when you need to modify text in the buttons or create new ones in the  future, i have to keep chopping the entire web page image.

is there a better way to chop these up without losing the text?

Imageready makes an HTML for you.

im a nub w/ ps and html, with a psd, how exactly do you chop it up into smaller images for use such as buttons, then reintegrate it with html??

Hmm. Maybe slice the image in Photoshop and save as a .psd before going into ImageReady and saving as optimized. That way you can open the .psd file when you want to change something and your layers will still be there. And a tip for slicing: use rulers and guides (and snap to guides). Hopefully this helps...?

If you have any more questions feel free to ask.

Oops, sorry. I meant without losing the text layer.

I'm not sure what you are asking here. Losing what text?
