    It is a great tutorial, and very well explained. However like many other tutorials around the web it lacks the next stage - converting this design to XHTML and CSS. It would be nice to see how the concept can be made into reality.

    Beutiful design I must say. I am sure going to try this one out myself.
    About people asking how to convert the design into a web page and it’s just simple html/css coding really. Just save all the images you need to use (background, menu buttons, the headlines and the scroll bar, if you want to use it. I would recomend using the “opacity” property in css or save just 1px of the content background as an half transparent image (.png) and use that as background. You don’t want to save the entire content background as an image because then you have alot of work to do if yoy want to extend your page with more content.
    There are a lot of css-tutorials out there and it’s mostly just divs with the properties padding, background, float, width and height you need.
    Good luck to you!
