      Yeh there are tuts online on how to do this but im not sure how good the results will be. If the PSD is well layered you shouldn't have any problems but if it's badly done you might want to look at getting a web designer to convert it for you for a small fee.

    Search PSD to HTML, there are a bunch of them pretty cheap. They come in handy for front end guys and template designers. As a front end guy myself slice and dice is not that difficult but as someone else already pointed out you have to have a proper layered PSD and a pretty decent grasp of the process. there are tons of tutorials if you are adventurous!

    Good Luck!

    Hi there!

    With the .PSD you have a great start...but it's a start. You'll need to slice it up and convert it to Wordpress theme scripting and then upload the custom-created templates to your server and configure it from there within the WP Admin Panel.

    You could spend time learning to do it yourself and work on it until you get it the way you want it. Or you could hire a designer to do it in a fraction of the time (and fraction of the cost if you value your time).

    I specialize in creating custom Wordpress themes and have been focused on Wordpress for a year now. But it took a couple months and a serious commitment to learn how and then become comfortable with it.

    If you'd like a free 15-minute consultation call to talk more about what you have and how to move forward, happy to help. Just shoot me a message.

    Good luck!

    Try to study some tutorial for dreamweaver. W3C school is a good start.

    I dont understand why people recommend Dreamweaver to setup their websites. Yes dreamweaver is good for people who dont have any knowledge in html and css. But instead of spending time in learning how to make sites in Dreamweaver, it would be better if you learn HTML and CSS. If you even spend 2 days going through the HTML and CSS tutorials, you can start developing websites using them.

    Just a suggestion for the newbies.
