An image map is one option, but one that is more "usable" is to break the image into "slices" that are displayed in cells of a table. Then for the cells that show the clickable images, you can add a link to those images. This is the most popular method, but does take some work to break apart the image. Some image editing software helps you with this.

You can go to Coffeecup Software, they have good software for little money. They have have an image mapper fairly cheap. Then of course you could buy a $400.00 software like Macromedia Fireworks which you can use to slice your graphic. Really though, Coffeecup Software has a good Image mapper software for around $25.00.

 

Good luck :D
