I have a picture with 4 distinct parts that I want to put on my website. When a part is clicked I want it to take me to a different URL.
you can see that the sections do not have clear rounded edges... and I need when someone clicks on the links labeled: 1,2,3, and 4 for each of them to bring the user to a different website.
What is the best way to do this?
OR
The best tool to do this?
Thanks,
With love,
luke.
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

There is a video tutorial in the website.

You need to know that you have to approximate the image areas with geometric shapes such as circle, square or rectangle.

M$With shape as poly, you can get a rough approximation with a series of coordinates. I don't know if there is an upper limit on coordinate pairs. Remember to close with same coordinates you started with.
I'm not familiar with web image maps that are not dependent on geometry. Looking forward to learning something new.
I like this particular article it gives me an additional input in the information a round the world. Thanks a lot and keep going with

Appreciate the answer, but as per the attached picture they are not geometric shapes.
