    Halp! any WordPress theming vets out there? I've been attempting to create a theme that originally started as a PSD file. I've sliced and coded it into an html file, and then from there, I've chopped it up into the various php files that I need...I think...

    I uploaded it to my themes, activated it..and I have a blank page with just my nav links...it's as if my CSS files are not being recognized, no images are showing up either...

    the link to my wordpress is http://tordrive.com/torpress/

    look into the html code of your site in the browser - the top part of the header seems to be missing;

    what is the code of header.php of your theme?
    (please use the http://pastebin.com/ if you want to show it - see http://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome#Posting_Code )

    for instance, look into header.php of Twenty Eleven for comparison.

    Here's my code for my header.php and also my index.php, if that helps... though, in the meanwhile, I'll peek into the header file for the Twenty Eleven theme and compare...

    Okay, I've figured out a bit of it - I changed my traditional CSS link to:
    "<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" href="<?php bloginfo( 'stylesheet_url' ); ?>" />"

    And yay! my css is now working (sort of)...my logo image is not showing up still...should I be using different code to link my image, rather than the usual "img src" etc, ?
