Ok, I am following this thread with interest. As the subject field
states, this is a rookie question/thought...

It is the second half of 2008 now. Many more people have broadband and
now CSS is more used and powerful as well, correct? I have never
sliced an image though I have had all the tools to do so forever.
(forever for me) I can already tweak an image down pretty good for the
web as a singular image.

Is there any need to "slice and dice" as they say now a days?
