Hi Arni! Welcome to the forum!
I have never used one of the templates on the CD for slicing ...and since I am in Korea and my cd in in the States..I'm afraid I can't help you there.
Slicing itself is relatively easy...so maybe dump the idea of using the template and create your own.
Go to File
Choose Export
Choose Image Slicer
Decide which format you want jpg, gif, or png...I usually use png as you get clearer images. Click the optimize button and either use the Wizard or manually set the settings on each of the tabs.
Now you can start slicing! Use the hand tool to move the graphic in the window to the position you want then choose the knife from the tool options.
Drag the knife either horizontally or vertically depending on the type of cut you want. You can use the eraser to erase lines if you get them in the wrong position....and the arrow tool will allow you to reposition the line.
When done.... choose Save settings. That will save a template of your cuts and the optimization. Then choose Save AS.... and give the file a name and tell it where to place it on your hard drive. The resulting file will have the html code and the images.
Note: I seldom use gif when slicing...as the degradation of the images seems to be greater than when saving as a regular gif. Am not sure why this is... perhaps someone else will have some input on that.
Hope that helps!
