Turning an image into a contact us form?

    Is it possible to edit a image to be a contact us form, like say I have a picture of an envelope that has fields for name, subject, message, etc. can it be coded so it's a contact us form? What kind of coding?

    Thanks :)

    Wow, What? you can put a div, have absolutely positioned form elements in the div, and put a background image of a big azz envelope of the div...

    wow... not what i would recommend but okay. i would suggest having the plain envelope as the background of the div and and then the elements 'floated' within it. absolute positioning really isn't a good idea unless you know how to use it correctly within a relative element and even then it is rarely needed. but anything that you can draw is pretty much capable of being a functional website given the right developer. personally as a designer and a developer, i draw each page of the website before i even begin development on it that way i can visually see what i want to do before i do it and go from there. give me time to think about things instead of just trying something and wandering if it looks good or not. think of it as a blueprint except for a website instead of a structural element.

    What I'm thinking is having the image of the front of a torn open envelope which has all the necessary fields for a contact us form and then distribute it for websites to use for a very professional looking Contact Us form.

    well good luck with it. it shouldn't be too difficult. maybe read up on CSS a little and as a last resort you could always use tables but tables are bad mmmkay? :)
