    copied!<p>There's no real right answer to this, since there's literally many ways to do this, but if you're just asking for an opinion to keep it simple, this is what I would do. However, that does not mean it is the best thing to do.</p> <pre><code>&lt;style type="text/css"&gt; .header { position:absolute; height:200px; width:700px; } /*change width/height to actual size*/ a.link { background-image:url(t.png); display:block; left:0px; top:0px; z-index:1; } a.icon { display:block; position:absolute; top:50px; height:32px; width:32px; z-index:2; } /*assuming icons are same size*/ a.fb { background-image:url(b.png); right:94px; } /* 3 10px spacers plus 2 icons widths */ a.tw { background-image:url(a.png); right:52px; } /* 2 10px spacers plus 1 icon width */ a.yt { background-image:url(r.png); right:10px; } /* 1 10px spacer */ &lt;/style&gt; &lt;div class="header"&gt; &lt;a class="header link" href="#"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a class="icon fb" href="http://www.facebook.com/"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a class="icon tw" href="http://www.twitter.com/"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a class="icon yt" href="http://www.youtube.com/"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>If you're going to take the anchor background image approach, you're going to need to set the anchor to a block, and then set the dimensions of that block, as seen in the example.</p> <p>A nice trick is to combine all of your icons into a single image, that way you only need to load one image, so there's less header calls. You then use the <code>background-position</code> CSS property to re-position the background image for each icon. For this example, we assume you have three 32x32 icons, which would make one 96x32 image.</p> <pre><code>&lt;style type="text/css"&gt; .header { position:absolute; height:200px; width:700px; } /*change width/height to actual size*/ a.link { background-image:url(t.png); display:block; left:0px; top:0px; z-index:1; } a.icon { background-image:url(x.png); display:block; position:absolute; top:50px; height:32px; width:32px; z-index:2; } /*assuming icons are same size*/ a.fb { background-position:0px 0px; right:94px; } /* 3 10px spacers plus 2 icons widths */ a.tw { background-position:-32px 0px; right:52px; } /* 2 10px spacers plus 1 icon width */ a.yt { background-position:-64px 0px; right:10px; } /* 1 10px spacer */ &lt;/style&gt; &lt;div class="header"&gt; &lt;a class="header link" href="#"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a class="icon fb" href="http://www.facebook.com/"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a class="icon tw" href="http://www.tweeter.com/"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a class="icon yt" href="http://www.youtube.com/"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre>
