Very good tutorial! I used this to create my own website, but then with some tweeks (twitter instead of second news article, colours etc.).

Hi I really like this and understand how to creat in Photoshop, however can someone explain how I would go about creating this as a website.
Would I slice the psd image up and using as background images in my CSS?
Thanx

The result is very good but i think this tutorial is best for advance user only. A lot of steps are missing or unexplained to the beginner. Specially the gradient tool is not as easy to control the appearance of actual colors.
