index.htm as a graphic?

Hi all,
I am creating a website with multiple shops and I would like for my home page... what they see when they go to LilleyPadCove.com to be my full size graphic. I'm in the testing mode now but for the life of me I have hit a road block of the brain! ... can I just save the graphic with its embedded links as a htm file or do I need a htm file with the graphic coded into it?:blink: my mind is just blank! :unsure:
Technically what I want to happen is, potential customers go to LilleyPadCove.com, see the graphic and find the store inte graphic they want to visit, click on it, that takes them to the stores front door where they click to enter the ZenCart part of the shop. Hired someone to do the graphics for me, but he bailed before they were complete so I'm having to do the work myself as well as create the zencart part of the shops...who knew a brain could take on so much without exploding! :wacko:
Help! :smile:

You'll need an HTML file with the image and links coded into it. It seems to work that way now.

Ahhhh...ok, Thanks Steve!
The page there is nothing like the end result with be, just have to test a few things until I figure out how to get it to show correctly for the majority of the browsers out there :smile:.
Thanks!

Re: index.htm as a graphic?

Another question.... I have the graphic up now, but it has a .png.map file, can't figure out where that goes so that my buildings are clickable?
Anybody? :smile:

Re: index.htm as a graphic?

isn't there a way to "make" the graphic the correct size no matter what size monitor its being viewed on?
I am creating this on my wide screen monitor and when I view it on my Mom's regular monitor its HUGE and you have to scroll, I don't want this to happen!
This is outside of Zen btw, its just my home page and individual stores home page graphic.

You can see what I mean if you go to http://www.lilleypadcove.com
click on the lower right store titled Nothing But Romance
and that should take you to the front of the NBR store, which then you click on the front door and it goes into my Zencart.

Thanks for any info you can give!
