Creating website using Photoshop

I created a website using Photoshop. I created the slices and
exported html and images. I am now in Dreamweaver and am not 100%
sure what to do. I have been watching several tutorials and read
that you need to make div tags. I have a background image (notepad
image) that I want to place text over for my main content. I'm not
sure if I should create the text in Photoshop or in Dreamweaver? I
know it will probably be a lot easier to edit if I did the content
in Dreamweaver but I can't seem to get it right. Can someone
explain how I do the div tags using CSS? Is it OK to use photoshop
to create the text and if so, is it hard to edit? Please give me
your thoughts.

  • Unable to Create Website using "Create Web Site" action component in Release Management

    Hi Team,
    I am trying to use Release Management to Deploy my Website along with DB in staging servers.
    I have set-up 2 Staging Servers SIT & UAT Both 2012 Servers with IIS 8.5 Configured.
    Defined Release Path and Release template.
    Deployment Sequence is something like this : 
    Deployment Sequence - Server Name - Create Folder - XCopy - Create Website - Configure Website
    Build is successful, drops the output to Output folder and RM gets initiated with it's work.
    It creates folders as mentioned in the "Create Folder" activity.
    It copies the whole content from _PublishedWebsites to the mentioned location.
    It gets stuck with the "Create Website" step.
    Initially I have provided details as follows : 
    AppPoolName
    IsPreloadEnabled
    IsAutoStart
    SiteName FabrikamSIT
    PortNumber 80
    PhysicalPath c:\FabrikamRM\WebSite\SIT 
    Later, I tried providing 
    AppPoolName DefaultAppPool
    IsPreloadEnabled 1
    IsAutoStart 1
    SiteName FabrikamSIT
    PortNumber 80
    PhysicalPath c:\FabrikamRM\WebSite\SIT 
    Then also no luck.
    Deployment gets rejected and the error that you can see when you hover the mouse is : 
    Task failed with the exit code -2146232576".
    No much info available with this eror code in net also.
    Any help in getting this simple site created is highly appreciated.
    Thanking you in advance,
    Regards,
    TFS Queries

    Hi,
    For the deployment sequence, you might need add the action of "create application pool" before creating a website.
    Another method is check whether the build output can be deployed manually. If yes, then you can trobleshoot the problem in your deployment sequence and parameters. You can create the website manually and deploy your build output to the website. If you have
    any other concerns about the deployment, you can also open a new thread in IIS forum for a better response.
    If the issue persists, please elaborate more details about your scenario with sceenshots.

  • Creating websites in photoshop and export to dreamweaver

    Ok. I NEED HELP!!! I tend to create complex designs in
    photoshop, and I can never get my images to line up correctly in
    Dreamweaver. I had sliced each image in photoshop, and saved them
    as HTML and Images, I open it up in dreamweaver, and none of my
    buttons work. I have also tried creating tables in a layout, but it
    never lays out the way I want it to. If anyone knows how to do this
    and create complex designs as well, please give me a hint on how to
    do it. I been having a hard time for a while and I am about to go
    to this program that does all of that for me while in photoshop.
    Also, if anyone heard of Site Grinder 2 (a site builder that
    works with photoshop and helps you create webpages)? It seems
    interesting, but I want to make sure I do not spend unecessary
    money.
    PLEASE HELP!!!

    I think it's worth your time. It's a nice product. If you
    have no
    intention or interest in learning HTML and CSS, it's about
    the only way to
    create stable webpages....

  • How do I create full width photos for a website with Photoshop - Fireworks - Dreamweaver CS3 ?

    Greetings & Help!
    I'm trying to create a full width photo layout using Photoshop or Fireworks CS3 and then end with Dreamwaver CS3 without the photo's being tall.
    Exactly as the following websites - which all seem to be using the same size of photo or very close to it.
    This site is static with full width photos that are not tall.
    http://www.jenniferhandyproperties.com/selling
    This site is static for the most part and full width photos that are not tall
    http://www.gnvpartners.com/web/
    This site is Flash with full width photos that are not tall.
    expodesigncenter
    I would love to create a flash site just like expo but at this point I would settle for a static photo with the same size being the same on each page.
    Also I would like my site to be a liquid layout so the photo and everything else (text, Links etc) on the page flows correctly.
    The problem...
    I'm trying to use photo's from Istockphoto.com. The size of the photo's they offer are
    425 x 282 px (5.9" x 3.9")
    849 x 565 px (11.8" x 7.8")
    1698 x 1131 px (5.7" x 3.8")
    I'm selecting horizontal photo's. I do not know how to match the same width, height and appearence as the websites I mentioned above.
    If I choose a photo that fits the width then the length is too long. Also if I choose a large photo and have to crop it then most of the detail of the photo is lost.
    I'm attempting to create a mock-up for my web in Fireworks CS3 and after search Adobe and www I came across the mock up should be 1004px which would end up being 1024 with vertical scroll bar and small margins.
    I also have Photoshop & Flash CS3 but should mention (if you haven't already guess it by now) I am a rookie when it comes to creating a website.
    So if you can offer a solution in "Non-Tech Terms" I would appreciate it.
    Thank you in advance for your time.

    In the second example, the photo is set to background with a tile. The other parts are over top of the photo and done with layers with a background color setting.

    I have made a website using iweb, as this will no longer be supported by apple, does that mean the gallery I have created on my website will no longer work even though I am hosting it with a different hosting provider. Will the other widgets no longer work?

    There are a few things that won't work on other hosting sites; hit counters and pop-up slide shows for sure.

  • Problem in creating PDF of Website using Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.

      I am trying to create PDF file of full website using "Create PDF from Web Page..." option, in Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.
    It is creating PDF but the page alignments/text/images alignments are lost and doesn't look good.
    Can any one help to create the PDF same as webpage look and feel.
    Thanks.

    Acrobat 8's HTML->PDF engine is quite old and doesn't work well with modern web pages. I'd recommend trying the same page using Acrobat X (trial available) where the engine has been replaced and modernized.

    I am using Photoshop Elements 11.  Do all .jpg formatted file have to be retangular in shape?  I want to create an oval .jpg picture to insert into a book.  Haven't been able to do so.  It would work if I could make the area outside the oval completely transparent.  Can anyone help me here?

    JPG does not support transparency, so even if you create an oval with transparent background, the saved JPG will have white background. Instead, save it as a PNG, TIFF, or GIF which preserve the transparency.
    Here is one of many ways to create your oval:
    Create a new file the approximate size of the oval. Add the oval with the Custom Shape Ellipse tool, and simplify the shape layer.
    In the Layers Palette, Ctrl-click the oval to select it and copy the selection to the clipboard (Edit > Copy).
    Then do File > New from Clipboard. This creates the oval with transparent background cropped to the oval size.
    Then save it as one of the file types that support transparency (and also supported by the application where you are sending the picture to).
    Note:  Is is not even necessary to do step 2. That is only if some reason you want the oval to be tightly cropped. It is sufficient to delete the Background layer in step 1 (or turn off its visibility) and save the file. The oval will appear correctly in the book with either version.

  • Adobe Muse: Is it possible to create a Social Network type website using Muse?

    Hey everyone,
    So ive recently came up with what i believe to be a pretty nifty idea for a social network type website, but i was just wondering is it possible to create such a website using muse? Ive created a few websites with it but never integrated features such as profile pages for users, searching options and other common things found on a few of the more well known sites such as Facebook, Twitter and so on. I dont really want to say what my idea is for obvious reasons, but if anyone knows if you can create a social network style website using Adobe Muse that can incorporate these such features, Id love to know. and if so can you point me in the direction of how to go about it, or to some instructional videos or sites that will help me out. thank you so much everyone,
    Callum

    Hi Prabha Sharma,
    I am afraid that at this stage this is not possible via Muse as that requires server side coding. You can start off creating a skeleton/template for your social networking site via Muse and then use that further with your own custom code. however, I will not recommend that you continue making your site with Muse as you will face issues in altering the muse generated code.

  • I published a website using iWeb.  I began using iWeb to create a second site and now I can't find my original site's work on my Mac.

    I published a website using iWeb.  I began using iWeb to create a second site and now I can't find my original site's work on my Mac.

    If you're publishing directly from iWeb 3 to your FTP server then you'll have the following in your accounts root directory:
    Site 1 folder
    Site 2 folder
    Site 3 folder
    index.html file from last published site directling to the last published site.
    If you want to keep Site 1 as the primary site you'll need to publish it one more time to the server so you get it's index.html file uploaded.
    Now you'll have to publish Sites 2 and 3 to a folder on the hard drive and use a 3rd party FTP client like Cyberduck, YummyLite or Transmit  to upload only the site folder (and not its external index.html file with it).
    The url to sites 2 and 3 will be:

  • Can i create ADM Modeless dialog using Photoshop CS5 SDK

    Hi,
    I am developing a photoshop plugin using CS3 SDK. I am using ADM to create dialogs. Developing ADM Modeless dialog is not possible in CS3 SDK.
    Can any one please tell me whether it is possible in CS5 SDK to create Modeless dialog. ( So that user of my plugin will be free to use photoshop even after invocation of DialogBox. )
    If Modeless dialogs are not possible in photoshop using ADM,..... Is ther any other way to create modeless dialogs in photoshop ??
    Regards,
    Prafulla Vedante

    ADM Modeless dialog is not supported in Photoshop in any version.
    Your only option to make a panel / palette in Photoshop is to use the CS SDK (CS5) or the "Photoshop Panel Developer's Guide" ( CS4 or CS5 ).

As you can see im not very good with this stuff, but it would be nice if i could design and create a UI where i could browse and play family videos etc. Any help would be much apreciated, Thanks.

    i guess I will need to boot into 10.9 to use them.
