If you have Microsoft PhotoEditor, you should just be able to crop your image and save each piece as its own image. You could probably also do it in Paint, but I don't think it has rulers, so you might not get an exact slice.

Hi Maya ... here goes ... 1. Open your image. (Say, Image1.gif) 2. View --> Rulers 3. Assume my image is 2 inches tall and 5 inches wide. 4. I want two images, 2 inches tall and 2.5 inches wide. 5. Go to Image-->Crop 6. For Crop Margins enter, Left: 0 , Top 0, Right, 2.5, Bottom 2. 7. Save image as Image1_slice1.gif 8. Open original image again. 9. Go to Image-->Crop 10. This time enter, Left 2.5, Top 0, Right 5, Bottom 2. 11. Save this image as Image1_slice2.gif PhotoEditor is not the most intuitive program in the world. If you had photoshop, you could just draw a select box around the image and crop. Hope this helps!
