🎨 Image maps: the relic of web design's embarrassing past. This article attempts to revive them like a washed-up '90s sitcom nobody asked for. 🤦‍♂️ Meanwhile, Mike Worth is living his best life, riding on #nostalgia and Duck Tales dreams. 🦆✨

Revisiting Image Maps | CSS-Tricks

Let’s run through a quick refresher. Image maps date all the way back to HTML 3.2, where, first, server-side maps and then client-side maps defined clickable regions over an image using map and area elements.

“Designing Mike Worth’s website gave me a chance to blend expressive design with modern development techniques, and revisiting image maps reminded me just how important a tool image maps were during the period Mike loves so much.” @malarkey in CSS Tricks.

@vga256 At work, I had to create some fresh HTML imagemaps, because of $LEGACY.

I couldn’t find any reasonable software that could create these any longer. I had to dig out a Photoshop 6.0 (6.0, not CS6 or something), from 2001. Its "ImageReady" did the trick.
