Using JPEG's as Menu buttons

[vegasarian]

I have a JPEG of some'standing stones' a la Stonehenge and I would like to make the different stones be menu buttons. Ideally with either DVD Lab Pro, Architect or TPMGEnc. Any tutorials or am I trying the impossible?.

If you just want a text highlight or a stone shaped highlight, I would do it in photoshop. Just create a new layer for each highlight, then save the lot as a psd file. Import this into DLP as a menu. I would first link all the layers in photoshop and resize to 720 x 540 as this is DLP's native menu resolution.

If you wanted something fancier then might have to look at switched menus in DLP.

In DLP, you can use the "Group Hotspot" Tool to draw a rectangle around the area you want to act as the hotspot.

In DVDA, you can drag a picture onto the thumbnail (or change the Button Properties)
