Thanks Matt! I posted on another forum as well and someone referred me to the same tutorial! I went through the process; however, there are a few things that I'm not clear on -
- How do I add more squares to for more icons? I've edited the code in Dreamweaver to add a few more icons, but the design pane only shows six, the rest don't appear.
- Additionally, I'm having problems aligning my icons in terms of the background positions.
Here's my code -
