Generally speaking, I found it useful for my purposes. It is freeware, allows saving/loading of image mapping projects (for mappings that are too big to be done in one time), opens existing html files with image maps, has layers, and its guidelines saved me a LOT of time. The greatest complaints (IMHO), are * The software looks abandoned (latest version as of 20 March, 2000), however, image mapping didn`t change much sinse that time, does it? * Works only on Windows, linux version could be great. I wonder if it would work under Wine... * Copy/paste does not work when entering parameter values!!! Also, if you open existing HTML file with map image without width and height specified, it assumes them to be 0, and this is not what you want. It seems like the authors tried to to create a full-blown HTML editor from it (You can set maaaany image map tag parameters from this tool, and it even has a complete HTML reference build into it). The result is a capable, but way to complex for a novice HTML designer software. And even if you understand all those tweaky parameters, entering them into simple edit box is not the best thing the industry can offer. If you need to create complex maps occasionally, and are not afraid of complex software, GeoHTML is for you. However, don`t try to solve all the problems with it. It is great for producing many areas with coordinates, but I prefer to do other stuff (like setting titles and hrefs) with other, more suitable software (vim and aptana for me).
