PSD to HTML?

Hi! Just wondering if you do have a simple PSD file that I can use to practice my css and HTML skills? Lets start from the basics though...
And if I ever got lost, can you suggest some tutorials (website, video, blog) that teaches to convert PSD to HTML? (not the online converter)... A step by step guide perhaps.
You will be a big help! Thanks in advance

Never allow a graphics editor to convert your PSD to HTML. The resulting code is unstable and too rigid to use in real web sites. Use Photoshop for Design comps and images only.
Use Dreamweaver to build your HTML & CSS code. Then insert images or images slices that you created in Photoshop.

With all the folks using mobile devices on the web now, the web trend has shifted significantly from heavy use of graphics to the power of CSS3 rgba, linear-gradients, border-radius, box- / text-shadows, transitions, and SVG graphics.

The upshot to all this is faster page loads with less bandwidth. Of course, you must build to your target audience. If that includes older, inferior browsers like IE8, then images might be a better choice for you.
PSD to WordPress? I'm not aware of any software that can do this for you. It requires good coding skills and experience with WordPress Theme Development.

How to Export/Convert PSD to HTML??

I'm hoping someone can help me here. I've searched online quite a bit to try and find an answer and haven't come up with anything yet.
I'm using the trial of CS3 right now (hoping it does what I need it to so I can justify purchasing!). I have a web design template that is in PSD format. I went in and did all of my editing and customization and when I got to the point where I was ready to publish, I realized that I had no idea how to get it int HTML format.
When I get web templates they always come with PSD and HTML files, leading me to believe that they are designed in PSD, and then converted. I'm new to the Photoshop world, so if this is really easy stuff, I apologize for the ignorance.
Any help on this (or a link to a tutorial or anything like that) would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks a lot!

hi micah, html is a text markup language (actually HyperText Markup Language). PSD is an image. you cannot convert an image into text.
that said, check into File> save for web and devices. there's a way to export the image files into websites. i believe it's in the save options pane. select save html and images. what that does is create some very basic html code to display your image on a web page. it converts the psd to a web viewable image format like gif, png or jpg (your choice). it's then up to you to upload the output of that, which will include html coded pages AND images to a website for viewing.
it's not as difficult as it sounds. try it, and if the trial version contains the help files (F1) look up "save for web" and read more about it there.

What is the best way to make PSD into HTML for emails

What is the best way to make PSDs into HTML for emails? Will the new feature in Dreamweaver work for emails as well? I am using Cheetah mail, but I need to be able to turn PSDs into HTML so I can use it in Cheetah mail. I have a general idea of how to do this, but I'm stumped about where to begin.

Use PShop for images only. Use DW to create your tables and inline CSS styles.
Many e-mail clients do not show images for security reasons. So graphics heavy e-mails are not an optimal way to communicate with your mailing list.

How do I import/drag a downloaded template with 2 folds, PSD and HTML into GoLive 7?

The index page looks fine in Preview but broken up in Layout. I have been back and forth with their T/S but it slow and unhelpful, plus the guy keeps saying everything looks fine on his Windoze machine. I have the latest iMac running Leopard.
I tried the IMPORT feature, and also tried replacing the folders/files that a created with a new site in GoLive, with the files that came with the template.
THANKS!

Does Dreamweaver CC create the initial html/css from an exported PSD? Or do we have to make that from scratch?

I am experimenting with the new Export feature in DW CC 2014.
In the tutorial, the instructor uses the sample files that we could download from the Adobe DW Homepage, which include a PSD & a HTML file.
The files are named:
"Adobe_Play.html"
and
"Adobe_Play_Comps.PSD"
Is the HTML file automatically made in DW or did he have to code that manually?
For those who have not seen the html file.. I'll quote it below:
"<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Extract in Dreamweaver</title>
<style>
    body{
    background-color:black;
    img{
    display:block;
    #container{
    width: 480px;
    height:1030px;
    padding: 10px;
    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right: auto;
    background-color: #1a1a1a;
    .row:after{
    content:"";
    display:table;
    clear:both;
    .cell{
    color:white;
    margin-bottom: 10px;
    background-color: #ccc;
    #r1-1{
    #r1-2{
    #r1-3{
    #r1-4{
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="container">
    <div id="r1" class="row">
        <div id="r1-1" class="cell"></div>
        <div id="r1-2" class="cell"></div>
        <div id="r1-3" class="cell"></div>
        <div id="r1-4" class="cell"></div>
    </div>

Hi Wang,
Using DW Extract feature you can get the images and css from a psd file. However HTML is what developer has to get done.

XSLT to convert CALS tables into html?

This may be the wrong forum to post this, but I don't know
where else I can, so I would very much appreciate if anyone
can suggest where I can find such information.
I need to write XSLT code that will transform
CALS tables that InDesign exports in XML into HTML.
(I can't simply use the xhtml export feature. I need to
do the transformation from XML to HTML.)
For starters, what would be the XSLT code that I would need to convert
aaaa
bbbb
cccc
dddd
eeee
ffff
into
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
<p class="pstyle_cell">aaaa</p></td>
<td>
<p class="pstyle_cell">bbbb</p></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<p class="pstyle_cell">cccc</p></td>
<td>
<p class="pstyle_cell">dddd</p></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<p class="pstyle_cell">eeee</p></td>
<td>
<p class="pstyle_cell">ffff</p></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
The thing that I am having the most trouble with
is the extraction of the number of rows and columns from
the xml file and creating the appropriate "for" loop
that will get the <tr></tr> tags in the right places in the HTML.
Thanks in advance.

Not really. It's never a good idea to consider the actual web page creation as an afterthought to the graphical design. In fact many times it's just simpler to start the web page as such and only add graphical fancy if and when needed selectively. Anyway, there are a few sites that offer PSD to HTML conversion, either automatic or as a paid service, but it will never be perfect. It's the same why a CSS or HTML file created using Save for Web always was and at best always can be a crude start. And in light of all the above, of course PS (or Illustrator or InDesign) are not web design tools, not even for the graphical aspects. Rather spend your time with Muse, Fireworks, Edge, Dreamweaver or one of the gigazillion free tools out there more suitably aimed at web stuff than PS ever could...

Dreamweaver Hotspots fracturing PSD images

I have a PSD image I want to publish in Dreamweaver CS3. I
can make a hotspot in DW, but after hitting "enter", it sort of
fractures the image template. That is, pieces of the image become
not aligned and it looks really bad. Is there a way to do this in
DW without putting the PSD back thru PS and slicing it again?
Thanks,
Mark

The truth of the matter is that any HTML written by a
graphics application
(whether it be PS, or FW, or whatever), is only useful for
prototyping work.
It is just not robust enough for use on the web.
If you give us a link to your page, so we can examine its
code, the issues
there will be easy to spot.
What this means for you is that if you are serious about
using DW for web
development, you will have to become much more capable with
HTML and CSS. A
good place to start is here -

Hyperlinks from objects

Is it possible to create a hyperlink (to a webpage) from an object, e.g. an image? And if so, how? Can only see how to do it from selected text.
Thanks daniela

I did tell you how to do it but you never seemed to get it to work.
P.
I will give you another chance.
This is just a quick sample I happen to have open.
http://psd.tutsplus.com/tutorials/3d/how-to-create-3d-text-blocks-in-photoshop/
On the right are a series of web ads with links embedded.
Drag select from under the +Subscribe to an update feed:+ text below until you have highlighted all the ads above including the PSD to HTML ad at top (Blue one).
Copy and paste this into a blank Pages layout document. I get the PSD to HTML ad with working link embedded inside Pages.

How can i turn a photoshop file into a website with knowing code? can i upload Muse or DreamWeaver?

How can i turn a photoshop file into a website with knowing code? can i upload Muse or DreamWeaver?
I created a few images (pages for a site) on photoshop and want to turn them into HTML code for a website- Can i Just upload the file into one of these programs and make a file with the correct code imediatly?
I was reading about using EDGE Reform but i did not understand if i can create the code with it, in the end it says it still needs to be sent to website developer after?

You need to look at Dreamweaver as a code editor. You need to learn to create good, clean HTML code with style sheets to make websites with Dreamweaver.
There are tutorials that will take you from a layered .PSD file to HTML. Here's a good one:
http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/site-builds/from-psd-to-html-building-a-set-of-website-d esigns-step-by-step/
Adobe's Muse is a semi-WYSIWYG website layout creator for small websites (1-5 pages). But there is no way you can go from a .PDS file to Muse, you have to start the site in Muse.
I have seen a few Muse sites and they're OK, but there is some code that Muse creates that is kind of odd. If you want a good, clean website that will work for you or your business, Dreamweaver is the best choice. Alternatively, you could hire a pro.

Desktop Manager 6.10 (b034) & 7.0 won't open after install!!!

Hey, I run a windows 7 box that has run Desktop Software now without issues for about 3 years. All of a sudden, whenever I go to load it, the system tells me "it's encountered an error, closing program now" so I can't ever use the dam thing. I've re-installed, removed user settings and restarted as requested in previous posts and still to no avail. Now when I go to do an OS upgrade, it also tells me "There was an error reading the initialization file" are these two possibly connected/ I'm running a Torch 9800 which doesn't mean much since I don't even get a chance to connect the phone. This is getting to be a major pain as I can't connect my phone for syncing contacts or anything. It's pretty much removed my favorite tool for my BB, what a drag! Any help would be appreciated...

RGB to CMYK gives me a white glaze? how to get rid of it

In photoshop cs5 when i convert an image i am working on from RGB to CMYK i get a white glaze over the image? as if i have added a photo filter or something? do you know how to prevent this on a mac computer?

…yes i can see that it is broke, but if you look in your last post the before image is in there for some reason, and the after picture is at the top in the earlier discussions.
Sorry, I don't understand what you're trying to say here. How can the "before" image be in any post of mine if I have never been able to see it?
The image I posted in my post, was your "after" image CORRECTED by me as explained in that post:
"Converting it to sRGB and setting the black and white points via a quick Auto Levels adjustment, brings about an improvement."
In other words, I downloaded your "after" image, opened in Photoshop, went to the Edit menu and used Convert To Profile to convert it to the sRGB color space, then I ran and Auto Levels adjustment. That's how I fixed your mess.
Apple Custard Studios wrote:
Hi station_two
…When i convert from rgb to cmyk, i SIMPLY GO: Image > mode> then click cmyk?…
Geebus Chrysler! No, that is indeed not just "primitive" but totally wrong. Go to the CONVERT TO PROFILE menu item in the Edit menu in Photoshop, and from that menu select the specific CMYK profile you want (or your printer requests). Be careful to select CONVERT TO PROFILE, do not under any circumstances choose "Assign Profile"! Converting to the appropriate CMYK profile will also automatically change the image mode to CMYK mode.
Apple Custard Studios wrote:
…which i am unsure it it may mean i have wrong profiles set, but if so what would i need to change it to?…
Apple Custard, it's obvious that you have no clue as to what Color Management is, and teaching you Color Management step by step here exceeds the scope of what can be accomplished in a forum. A good place to start reading up on it is here:
http://www.gballard.net/psd/cmstheory.html
In a nutshell: Your Monitor profile should be the file resulting from your calibrating and profiling your monitor with a hardware calibrator puck. Calibrate and profile your monitor regularly and often. Your monitor profile thus will be device-dependent, specific to your monitor.
Your working space, on the other hand, should be a device-independent profile, such as Adobe RGB or sRGB. It should NEVER, ever be your monitor profile.
Your target profile when printing should be device-dependent and specific to the combination of ink, paper and printer model you'll be using. For the web, create a copy of your image file and convert it to sRGB, then save it as a JPEG as needed.
Good luck!
