Rollover Images - Is Resizing Possible?

Recommended Posts

I am fairly new to web development (as I'm sure you will see if you take a look at my pages) and have a question about Rollover Images. I am using Macromedia Studio to create my site (Dreamweaver and Fireworks - haven't learned Flash yet) - but also have Adobe software if that helps explain things.Basically, I have a page that one has to keep scrolling to look at pictures:http://www.redgiantproductions.com/zombiepics.htmlWhat I want to do, is use little thumbnails and when the mouse scrolls over a specific image - it enlarges and takes over most of the screen (see links below for examples). When doing rollovers - I can only get it to make it swap same size files. So I tried using layers and slices to get it to work, but can't seem to get anywhere with it. I'm guessing this is a pretty common question and I'm hoping someone out there wil be kind enough to help out this newbie.Here is a link to a Fireworks working file of what I'm trying to accomplish - there are no slices, hotspots, or rollovers on it in it's present state - I'm just providing the link to give you a visual for what I'm trying to say.http://www.redgiantproductions.com/pics.pngI would like it to look something like this when the mouse goes over the first pic (see link below - this link is just a picture inserted on top of the lower image, it is not done through rollovers - that is what I'm trying to figure out how to do) - when the mouse moves off the pic, the big picture goes away and a new picture appears in the same location based on whatever picture the mouse is currently over. Maybe even give the bigger picture an outer glow to standout - but I'm guessing I can tweak that later, so long as I can figure out the first step.http://www.redgiantproductions.com/pics2.pngAny advice would be greatly appreciated. I have a feeling this would be much easier in Flash, but I have no idea where to begin with Flash. So any advice using Dreamweaver and/or Fireworks?
