Interactive Button's Initial State

I made a DWT as a start for a new website. Using Interactive buttons, I created links to pages within the site. Now, I want to change the initial state of the interactive button that corresponds to the page that is being viewed. For example, pages A, B, C, D are part of the interactive button set on the DWT

On page A, I would like that same button set, but with the interactive button for page A in a different state than the other buttons. The same would apply to the other pages that correspond with the interactive buttons (B, C, and D). The problem I am encountering when trying to alter the initial state is that FP2003 wants to overwrite the image files upon save. Those are the same image files that the DWT uses. How do I change one of the interactive buttons, without altering the DWT file?
 
You can't set the state for an interactive button w/o creating a new IB w/ new images for the normal state (normal is the default
when the page loads)
The only states are normal, hovered (on mouseover) and pressed (on mousedown)
To see how to create new buttons (w/ an altered normal state image) see

Plus if your IB are in a DWT you can't change them if they are in an non-editable region (w/o changing the DWT)
