I made an Image and Im using an ImageMap to create HyperLink Map Regions.

I would like the Text that is within the Image to appear as a HyperLink so people would know to click on it.

I've been using Photoshop 6 for some time and I cant determine if there is an UnderLine Function that I can use for Text.

Does anyone have a suggestion?

    As an aesthetic consideration...

    Underlining a large section of text is clumsy and may inhibit readability.

    You might best cater to inexperienced web visitors by illustrating some sort of button instead of underlining text.

    It does look rather clumsy- unfortunately my experience has been developing not designing....

    I would welcome your suggestion!  Heres where it is: http://davincispainting.com/green.aspx

    I think both ps 6 and ImageReady have the underline in the character palette.

    With the text tool selected there should be an icon in the tool options bar

    to show the character/paragraph palettes.

    This is cs3, but ps 6 is somewhat similar.

    Yes I found the Answer is within the Character Palette, however there is an Arrow Button at the Top which provides more Options including Underline.
