Its an image map. Basically, you map out coordinates on an image (in this case, my typecast) and then draw a box, circle or triangle on the image and make it a "hotspot" to a link.
Its really pretty easy and using a freeware tool like Meracl ImageMap Generate (at http://come.to/meracl) makes the coordinate mapping stuff even easier.
Check it out and if you have any trouble creating one, just let me know.
Wow! What an endorsement!! I hope I live up to the hype!
ReplyDeleteSo how did you make that "link" clickable??
