Hey,

I was wondering if you are interested in porting a theme I made into WordPress. Here’s the PNG Screenshot.

@Aguair: Sorry for not responding quickly enough. These PSD designs take me a long time to code so I can’t really guarantee anything. Already coded XHTML/CSS designs are greatly preferred. Hope you understand.

I understand. Do you know anywhere I can get something coded? Or even a program that might make it easier to code something?

@Aguair: I usually use Photoshop to slice and a text editor to code. I’m not sure of anything that will make this easier but it’s usually best to do it by hand.

I’m not the best on the ‘Slice’ bit - Meaning I have no idea what it means. To be honest - I’m a F- student when it comes to coding (CSS - I’m OK at).

I thought Dreamweaver did that kind of stuff.

Otherwise, do you know a coder - Preferably free. Yeah - I’m suckish.

Dreamweaver can probably do it too, I’ve never used it though. I don’t know any free coders. Sorry.

Hey,

Off-topic - Can you… help me, Moving my WordPress blog (Currently at http://localhost/wordpress) to another domain? The WordPress.Org tutorial only confused me more.

Thanks.

@Aguair: You’ll need to backup the WP database and files and upload them to your web host. You might need to make a couple changes in the database (chainging from localhost/wordpresss as the URL). You could also try WordPress export function and transfer the theme and other plugins you’re using to a fresh installation.

There are some steps here too: http://hackwordpress.com/how-to-moving-wordpress-to-another-server/
