the text of white color

the rest of the text

The inscriptions in the section useful links have the same parameters, shown below: Blending Options>Stroke


Create again a new layer (Create new layer) and insert the pointers near the links, choosing the same tool we’ve applied for drawing the same elements of the menu’s buttons. The color in this case is white.


It’s time to write the site’s copyright, keeping the same demands introduced in the next table:

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.

Yes, where could I go to learn how to convert a design such as this to XHTML / CSS ? I would like to use Joomla as the CMS..

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!

For those who ask about converting the design to html, I found a photoshop plugin that supposedly makes it a 5-minute-job. Haven’t tried it, but I’m about to. It’s called Divine, and here’s the link

aweful tutorials for beginners. none of the dimensions for shapes are included, making it very frustrating when trying to replicate what you have here

It would be nice if the instructions were in English. I cant understand 1/2 of what its trying to say. Besides I got everything working except the photo image straddles the dividing rectangle, not hidden behind like in the example. What am I missing?

State of the Art tutorial…. Superb graphics and color combinations. The layout is neat and methods used in Photoshop is really professional. But how about moving to a bit more advanced and make it to a reality, ae. if you can explain the conversion to XHTML & CSS of the Photoshop artwork!

awesome, but as with the hundreds of other similar tutorials, you’ve made a great PICTURE of a website. Not a website. I can make pictures of fantastic sites all day- but how do you make it functional? Like you drew a slider for a text box. What’s the practical use of drawing it? How do you get it to function in CSS? This is the same place where the line between designer and coder always breaks down. Can anyone point to a good tutorial that will tell me how to turn a great looking design into an actual webpage?

guys bare in mind this is a PICTURE not the actual HTML/CSS file.
this tutorial, as ANY other photoshop tutorial, just helps you illustrate whatever that you have sketched.
In order to deploy a website similar to this one, you will need to have some basic understanding of HTML or even HTML5 (flavour of the month) text scripting and CSS3 to edit for example the page layout and the colours to be used.
After that, the sky is the limit!
