Create layer-based slices

This is the easiest method for slicing images. The New Layer Based Slice command will create a sliced based on what is visible in the chosen layer. It also allows for effects like drop-shadow.

  1. open index.psd in photoshop
  2. select the layer you want to create the slice from
  3. go to Layer>New Layer Based Slice
