Website question
Two ways.
First. Use a <u>java applet</u> that does it all for you. You just have to read the notes and configure it. You can get loads of free applets at places like these:
http://www.javagoodies.com/
http://www.cdsony.com/java.shtml
http://javaboutique.internet.com/
http://www.javapowered.com/
A word of caution: not all applets are equal and some are prone to generate errors.
Second. You can use a bit of <u>javascript</u> to automatically swap alternate graphic images that you create. For a big site, this is a lot of work but the effect can be very nice. To see an example of this at work, take a look here where I helped a few friends put this together. It's all done graphically with extensive use of the mouseover, mouseout, mousedown, mouseup commands. I created this, for the most part, using macromedia's dreamweaver program. But it needed tweaking too. To learn a bit about what's behind this, take a look here . Browse the site, there's a lot of good info.
Lastly, something you didn't ask was image maps. That's where there's one graphic, but different parts of it link to different pages. Can be nice.

Well thats what the very first HMTM2 used. You can either do what phin or said OR what i very highly recommend is get the trial version from http://www.macromedia.com and download the fireworks 3 trial version - then get a crack for it if u are dishonest (unlucky me i bought the full version) but it does all of the javascript for you all you have to do is create the pics but fireworks 3 has a library of buttons to configure. Hey you can even use fireworks 3 for some MTM1 & 2 stuff

Try www.buttontool.com. Adobe ImageReady came with Photoshop, so that's what I use.
