    If you don't have Photoshop, go to the Adobe website and download a free trial of the latest version. Open your PSD file with that. You can then use the "save for web" option to either: 1. save the entire template in a more web-friendly format or 2. save elements like the header or buttons as separate image files and use software like nvu to build a webpage incorporating them.

      Yes, good explanation. You can also download a free software called "Gimp" instead of Photoshop.

    Unless you know how to do any coding then you won't be able to turn it into a webpage very easily. The easiest and most efficient way to do it is to use a service that will take your psd design and code it into valid xhtml, ie: a working website.

    There are lost of places who offer this service but the one I have been using for years and can recommend to you is Xhtml Team

    For a professional website you need do coding with your PSD. Without coding you will never get a full functional professional website.

    If you know coding just do it. If not just go to outsourcing sites like oDesk, vworker, elance, etc. There have so many coder who can do it with great professional quality with very competitive rate.

    Hope it will work for you.

    Many times a PSD template will actually COME with the html version too - NOT always, so check the specifics, but template sites usually have both html templates (many that include the PSD files) and just PSD only.

    All success,
