Newbie question regarding graphic design - what's the best way to create graphical text (or textual graphics?) for websites? For instance, on the top navigation menu on webhostingtalk.com, the home, profile, register etc items are all compact text images. I'm sure it can be done in Photoshop or some other heavy duty graphics program. But do you know of smaller tools just for that purpose? Also, what's the technical term for creating this text using graphics?

Any information or links are appreciated. Thanks in advance! :)

You can get button generators on the web, search yahoo.
