    Hello,

    I just designed a test site to try to make this site in to wordpress. The site looks likes this:

    http://www.jupither.net/test/

    A corporate site. This is not for any client just for me to learn wordpress.

    My question: Is there any good tutorial online to make this site in to wordpress or any good tip for a book that can help me?

    For this site I want all pages to be edible and 2 latest news on the frontpage. Thats my goal.

    Any tip?

    WordPress Codex:
    http://codex.wordpress.org/Blog_Design_and_Layout
    http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development
    They have example codes.

    WPDesigner:
    http://www.wpdesigner.com/2007/02/19/so-you-want-to-create-wordpress-themes-huh/

    and you can find more on Google.

    WordPress pages are not edible, by the way.

    Sure they are! Little salt and pepper, hot sauce, yum! A cold beer and you're all set! :)

    All that swell stuff that was suggested starts with "make sure your modem is plugged in" type logic. I've been spending a week going through the same thing over and over -- You can't imagine how many times I've been pointed to "design your wordpress site" and it turns out to be "download a template". Well, I just found this, but it is late so I only got to a few sentences -- looks good -- an honest to goodness article about conversion instead of a treatise on the english language, bill gates, the way of the world and maybe touch on conversion... Look at this one: http://www.jestro.com/web-design/convert-xhtml-css-to-wordpress/

    I hope it answers a few questions for me -- [Yeah, I know, header footer, sidebar and content.... That's swell - for a fun little page. How about a **real** site being merged / converted? Yeah, I get it -- header footer sidebar, content...]

    HA!

    Chris Coyier over at CSS-Tricks.com has an excellent tutorial on how to create a WordPress Theme from the ground up. It's a vidcast.
