 * I was wondering how I could use my own custom photoshop template and create a
   blog from the ground up. Are their any instructions on skinning the site? Please
   hook me up with any useful links. Thanks.

 * i’ve always used ps to skin my site(s) and now that i use wp it hasn’t become
   an exception.. it’s not that hard, really.. you simply need to work on index.
   php and wp-layout.css after you slice ur iface in ps! 🙂

 * yeah your site is nice. ARe you using Div Tags? Where do you add the loop etc?
   Im not sure how to edit the Index.php Page. Being unfamiliar with HTML and PHP
   mixed up, makes it all code and no sense to me!!!

 * You may want to take a look at Kubrick ( [http://binarybonsai.com/kubrick/](http://binarybonsai.com/kubrick/)).
   It’s customizable via a Photoshop template, so you may get some ideas by looking
   at how it’s created.

 * if you’re not familiar with html and/or php i suggest taking a quick read thru
   some online tutorial sites before doing anything with your template.. photoshopping
   is a whole different subject.. you can start at [http://designsbymark.com](http://designsbymark.com)

 * I used to photoshop all my sites. Im a designer by trade. But mixing php with
   HTML gets to me. I know how to use includes etc… slicing templates etc….. Im 
   pretty good at that. But Im not sure how to implement to coding into the photoshop
   template after im done with the slicing etc.

 * I would ignore the php – it’s the css you need to look at if you are integrating
   images into WP.

 * So would I use the default template, then hack into the CSS and try to put the
   images together that way? I think I should study up more on CSS then. Would you
   suggest creating a entire webpage and using it as a background image, or slicing
   up needed pieces and adding it to fit the site?
    What I normally do, it slice
   the PSDs, then where there is text, includes, or whatever, I change that image
   into the background of the table. I hope im making sense here. I only am familar
   with CSS as far as for text, those “TRENDY” scroll bars, and actually thats about
   it LOL. Any other tips?

 * tables?? yuck!!! anyway.. i second podz on this.. use css for integrating your
   sliced images into the html.. simply create or modify the existing divs, ids 
   and classes.. i doodled with almost every element of wp in index.php and wp-layout.
   css you can do the same if you want full control of the layout.. you’re free 
   to hack into my css it’s at [http://jermexpress.com/reinvented.css](http://jermexpress.com/reinvented.css)
   have fun! 🙂
