GoLive is Adobe’s WYSIWYG Web authoring application. If you’re like me and like to design your Web pages in Photoshop before you write the markup, GoLive is the perfect companion program for you.
Importing Web pages with GoLive
You can design your entire Web page in Photoshop and import the layered file into GoLive. You can use the Save for Web dialog box to import and optimize each layer as a separate Web image. GoLive then saves the optimized image as a floating box that you can move, stack, and animate on the Web page. Of course, you can import flattened, nonlayered images as well. You can then select each floating box and drag a Smart Photoshop icon into the box. When you tag it as a Smart Photoshop Object, you can then edit the original Photoshop image by simply double-clicking any of the Smart Photoshop images on the page.
Using sliced images with GoLive
GoLive also recognizes sliced Photoshop images. Slices are sections of your image which you can then optimize individually for speed, appearance, and special functions such as links. Save your sliced image as a native Photoshop file in your site folder (the folder containing all your Web page images). Drag the Photoshop image from the site folder onto a new GoLive page. GoLive converts the sliced image into a Smart Photoshop Object, assembles the slices in a table, and opens the Save for Web dialog box to optimize the individual slices. You can then use the slices for links, rollovers, and so on. Because the image slices are Smart Objects, GoLive automatically updates them when you edit the original Photoshop image. GoLive recognizes native Photoshop, GIF, JPEG, and PNG formats. Again, keep your images in RGB color mode and at a low resolution (72 to 96 ppi).
