Hey Jeff,
Thanx a lot for the kind words and tipps. I’ll definitely concentrate on focusing the musician’s eyes next time.

Hey Andris, the photos look great. Maybe try narrowing down your selection a little next time and using your AF points to keep the focus on the musician’s face.

Cheers!

@mike: Another advantage of creating one image for each button is that you can combine CSS properties like:

#navigation li a:hover, #navigation li a.current {background-position:0 -30px;}

Otherwise you had to set a background-position for each hover state. And that would be a lot more code for a bigger navigation. Or how would you solve that problem?

@mike: You’re absolutely right. To keep it simple and understandable I thought it might be better to create one image per button.

But like you said it would reduce server requests if you would put all images together in one file.

Since you are creating and using sprites for you buttons why not create 1 sprite with all of you button images and use background positioning for the roll over states? This might reduce the overall images file size and would surely cut down on server calls for the page to load images.

I’m really ashamed for my mistake. But hey, if I didn’t published the article I would think this technique is called Sliding Doors forever.
