Hello, this is my first post here in WF, pardon me for posting a question rather than an introduction about myself but anyway, here's my situation. I need to convert this image to a website, which is a 5 paged, and just uses simple photos and videos and contact form, I can do all of that by coding, but I i don't have much time, deadline is wednesday, and I only started leaning CSS.

My question is, there a quick way to make this photo into a website in using customization? Or should I just code this manually (which requires intensive effort in my situation). The client selected this before I discovered wordpress. This is my first client website, for $250, and i don't know what to charges monthly, i'll use HostGator baby plan because I read about it, having a good reputation and many advertising. All in all, I'm a complete newbie in selling website, not making it though.

Note: The text and images are all lorem ipsum, no grammar nazi. But if you have tips about the design, it will be really appreciated. It's a rental apartment website.

    Hi Logia,

    Welcome to WF. Unfortunately I don't know anything that converts an image into a HTML page and even you will definitely need to code to customize it. Let me know If you want my help in completing it.

    Do you have a copy of Photoshop? If you have... there's a Slice Tool that you can use to slice out each part of your image. After slicing you will be able to use Photoshop to automatically convert it into HTML.

    If you do not have photoshop... i read something about HTML Image Map which you can use to create clickable areas in your image.

      There are some services online that will give you the css to make a page look like an image. (just Google) The problem is that is not exactly the same as having all the code to make a site work. In other words although it will look like the image you still need to add the code that will make your contact forms and menu work properly.

    You are charging the client for something you have no idea how to do it?
    Poor client - I hope s/he will find this thread sooner or later...

    You should pay them that they let you learn on their website

      It's fairly easy if you have Photoshop. You just slice it up and then export > html and images.

      Slicing up a PSD is far from the best way to design a site, especially these days. I'm not even sure CSS is going to help you at all.

      Next time, however, you probably shouldn't sell a service you can't actually do.

        Thanks for the suggestion. I do have some experience in web design and developing, back in high school I'm the president of our web development organisation, and I pretty much do all the work from creating rough draft to coding the website, the only thing my team mates had done is collecting inputs.

        The reason my situation suck is because, I should have discovered WP first and show her premium themes which will speed things up. If there is no way, I'll just review responsive website tutorial which will take me about 5-10 hours to regain my memories. But assuming there is a faster way to do this, I'll try your suggestion guys. This is a simple website which do not require ecommerce and seo etc, just a display website. 2 days is long enough for me to make this website the hard coding way.

    I can only think of Chopfactory, using their services for more than a year and would recommend for sure.
    If interested can share their contact details or you'll get it from the website itself
