Hi,

Is this what your looking for: http://www.wowsecretkey.com/images/2012-08-18_1118.png
I can't help with the hover option you are looking for, but maybe this will answer some of your other questions.

1 Create your Table
2 Right Click inside your table choose Table properties then set the width you want.
3 Right Click inside your table again and choose divide cell.
4 Right Click inside the cell you want your image to be, choose Cell Properties/click Style Tab/click Background Tab.
5 Enter Background image e.g (images/your image name) this is mine (images/2012-08-18_1118.png). All pictures you upload to xsite go into the images folder.
6 Write your text choose size, font, colour.
7 Right Click inside your cell once again, Click Cell Properties/Style Tab/Text Tab.
8 Choose the Alignment you want for your text.

Hope it helps

Having used XSite Pro and Photoshop extensively I respectively would not advise doing it that way. Are you familiar with either Photoshop or Paint.net? Paint.net is what I would suggest because it's easier to use. It's brilliant for those starting out. And it's totally free. You will get very professional results when using it.

Edit the graphic using Paint.net and apply your chosen text there as a new layer rather than muck around with tables inside of XSite Pro. Then insert it into the table cell - and embed your link. It's as easy as pie and besides it's good experience editing your own images for future projects your might have as well.

It will take you maybe 15 minutes to learn how to add your text to a new layer using Paint.net. It's valuable experience to play around with your own graphics and way better to do this using dedicated editing apps rather than XSite Pro. You will get far better results. You'll save money too and gain a lot of confidence that you can produce your own graphics.

Paul.
