There's really no advantage to slicing up a large picture.
If your picture is 500x500 pixels and you slice it into 25
pieces of 100x100 each, you still have to download 25,000
pixels. The total file size of the 25 sliced pictures may
be a Little bit smaller, but now you have to open and
close 25 network connections, and that takes longer than
opening and closing one connection.
So, my advice is to forget the slicing, add the picture to
your Web page all in one piece, and then map it.
To map an image in FrontPage:
1. Select the picture.
2. Choose the Rectangular Hotspot, Circular Hotspot,
or Polygonal Hotspot button on the Pictures toolbar.
3. Mark one picture area you want to map.
4. Specify the hyperlink location.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each area you want to map.
