Hi all, i'd like to pick some of your brains if I could.

I'd like to make an eflyer to advertise my club night on it, and would like to have certain parts of it clickable. Now at the moment I just have one big large image (about 750x1500) which I have made, but from here i'm a bit clueless as how to make it into an E-Flyer (which I assume is just an html email with the image in it).

Whats the best way to go about it, i'd ideally want about 8 different sections of the email that are clickable which take you to various sites etc.

The image i've made is here http://www.trancential.co.uk/images/EFLYER.jpg
I would ideally want each of the artists names clickable to take you to the website listed under their name, then also the 3 logos at the bottom to be linkable.

Can anyone help me out with this, or point me in the right direction?

Thanks.
 
Use your favorite graphics program to cut it up and then learn enough html to make tables*. Alternatively, you could also create your tables in a WYSIWYG editor such as Dreamweaver.
Then you'll want to test it by sending it to various email clients (such as Outlook and Thunderbird etc.) and online email providers (such as hotmail, gmail and yahoo etc.)


* Tables are normally a big no no unless you're using them for tabular content but are pretty much required for email.
 
Do you have access to fireworks? If so you can chop the image and add links and save as html in that, look for a tutorial about it on youtube/google?
