Web designing in Photoshop

I want to know how to design a blogger.com template using photoshop for my technology news blog ?

What has any of that to do with PS (beyond the graphics for the header and so on)? You need to read their specifications on how to define classes and styles for their API before you even begin dreaming up custom themes. Really, if at all, this is only marginally related to PS. This is rock-hard web design stuff with CSS, HTML and possibly even defining custom PHP code...

Which tool we can use in Web design except photoshop?

I have six experience in web design developing,Need more advice,Which tool we can use in Web design except photoshop?

Dreamweaver is pro-level software for web designers & developers. If you have the necessary coding skills, there's not much you can't do with DW. If you don't, the learning curve can be quite steep.
If you join the Creative Cloud, you have access to the following other web design products:
Muse is web design software aimed at non-coding designers & hobbyists. The trade off for Muse's "ease of use" is static HTML pages with limited functionality. In other words, you could not use Muse to build a shopping cart site but it might be all you need for a simple hobby, church or charity site.
Edge Animate
For creating HTML5 Animations and interactive site pages.
Edge Coder
A coding editor.
Edge Reflow
For creating responsive web design layouts that work on mobile phones, tablets & desktops.
Edge Web Fonts & TypeKit -- custom web fonts
PhoneGap -- for creating mobile apps

Web design in photoshop

I wanted to know if I buy the program Photoshop I can draw sites like this www.vmnetwork.ru (not many colors, but glow black and white)? or are needed for this are that the specialized programs, whether training with the program?

You can certainly make the graphics for any web site with Photoshop, but it is not a web design tool per se. It's an image editor first and foremost, with some handy features for helping you with web work (e.g., Save for Web & Devices, slicing, fancy text and layer effects, 3D, etc.).
To determine if it's the right software for you, you may want to consider downloading the 30 day free trial of Photoshop CS5.

There are many, many references and training materials available to help you learn Photoshop. I can't recommend any one in particular, but I'll bet there are those on this forum who can.

Is the HP TouchSmart tm2-1010ea Notebook PC good for a web designer? Photoshop/Flash/Dreamweaver

Thinking of buying the touchsmart tm2-1010ea would this run photoshop, flash and dreamweaver ok?

What are it's specifications ? Specifically the speed of the processor and the rpm's of the hard drive. How much ram does it have ?
If the laptop is 64 bit, it should have at least 4 GB of ram. The hard drive RPM should be 7200, 5400 RPM will work, but that's a bit slow. Processor should be at least duel core at not less then 2.00 Ghz.
There are no specs. listed on the site so you will have to look them up your self.

I had an issue running Bridge CS6 on my laptop yesterday and after failing to troubleshoot I un-installed it from my system but have yet to find any way to download/reinstall it. I have web design premium and tried uninstalling/reinstalling photoshop and illutsrator as I'd seen bridge was coupled with those but had no luck. Is it possible to download bridge as a stand alone with a web design premium license for cs6

restart your design premium installation, select custom install and you should see options to pick which programs you want to install.
tick bridge and install

Which Laptop for Photoshop + Web Design? (under 1000$)

Hey there-
I need a PC laptop and not sure which to buy. Just getting started with photoshop and web design but hope to make it a career. Money's tight so under 1000$ (max) is ideal. Do I need a dedicated graphics card, or is integrated okay? Intel or AMD? Screen resolution? I'm confused.
Any tips are much appreciated, thanks!

Do you really need a laptop? You can get a lot more for the money with a desktop. Many serious users use one or more 24+ inch monitors.
Win7 is better than Win8. The standard recommendation is a dedicated video card with 1 gig of VRAM, min. 2 internal HD or large SSD, and min. 8 gig of ram.

Recently I purchased CS4 Web Design can I deactivated my old Photo. CS4 and Illust. CS3 to sell/gift

I have a full version of CS4 Web Design Premium, now my old Photoshop CS4 and Illustrator CS3 are redundant. Can I either sell these or give as a gift to my girlfriend's nephew - they have been deactivated and removed from my computer (macbook pro).
Thanks for your insight and help!

You may sell or otherwise transfer the individual Photoshop and Illustrator products unless (1) one or the other was used as the basis to do an upgrade to the suite itself or (2) those products were student or academic versions or part of a bulk commercial license.
Make sure you transfer registration of the software using the forms available from Adobe's website.

Need Good Web design books - already a print designer

I'm already very familiar with photoshop, illustator, and indesign and have been using them for years. I'm now looking to start learing web design and need suggestions on a good book or books that aren't just about dreamweaver or fireworks, but rather something covering the intergration of applications as well as the basics. Any suggestions?
thanks

daevaux,
For a start, you may have a look at the one mentioned by Kath in this thread: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/437013?tstart=0
Her post itself is also worth reading, as always.

Is Dreamweaver the best web design software to learn for an aspiring web designer?

Hi Everyone,
Perhaps difficult to get an unbiased answer to this in a
Dreamweaver forum but I'm sure most of you considered other web
development software before you went with Dreamweaver. Of course
the answer is not as straight forward as just choosing one piece of
software over another. I understand that there isn't really one
piece of software that ticks every box for the web designer. What I
mean is that there isn't one standalone piece of software that's
best for web design (HTML, CSS etc.), graphics and animation etc.
and that's why we have things such as Adobe Creative Suite. Anyway,
sticking to web design and development in the Dreamweaver sense,
would I be correct to advise someone who wants to work in the field
of web design to use Dreamweaver as their main tool? Particularly,
I would be interested to know if Dreamweaver really is the industry
standard as it's important to consider future job prospects.
I hope you understand what I'm asking.
Thanks, in anticipation for your help.
P.S. Has anyone heard of Enterprise Works?

LOL... sure!

New To Web Design, How To Get Started?

Just looking for some advice on what I need, I have used Dreamweaver before and have a little bit of web design experience (by little I mean not much at all!)
I was just wondering what other Adobe software I would need along side Dreamweaver to build and maintain a decent site, I basically want to know what other apps work alongside Dreamweaver to make the whole process run smoother and easier
Cheers for any help!

Hello,
Dreamwever is a good start for any web design project, also if you are doing the design side of things, Photoshop and Illustrator would be good additons to the toolbox for you web design projects.
Hope that helps,
Matt

SiteGrinder (PS plug-in) web design question answered

Over at http://www.adobeforums.com/webx?128@@.59b4e1c9 we've been discussing SiteGrinder, the PS plug-in which converts Photoshop designs to working websites.
One of the posters had concerns about the SG coding. (I don't know if he's used the plug-in.) He pointed out that on their users' sample sites at http://www.medialab.com/sitegrinder , if you enlarge the text with cmd-+, everything gets crowded and overlaps. I noted that this is a common problem with most/all sites, regardless of their origins. He responded:
>It's common -- far too common -- but not inevitable. It's bound to happen with SG, though, because they carve up the layout into fixed size chunks and then use absolute positioning, so there's no way for the containers to accommodate changes in font size except by crashing into each other, or growing scroll bars, which is only sometimes going to work. For the same reason -- starting with a single Photoshop image -- they can't identify headings or lists, so the pages aren't properly accessible to some assistive technology. If you don't care about accessibility, you should realize that this also means that they become hard or impossible for search engines to analyze, so people aren't going to find your site so easily.
I've only just downloaded the SiteGrinder demo, so I couldn't confirm or deny this, so I sent it along to the developer at MediaLab, who replied overnight on a weekend. He says:
>The criticisms are partly true. SiteGrinder uses something called "absolute" positioning as its default. This means that if the text size is increased and the text has been divided into several closely packed layers that after resizing the text may overlap.
>But, while this is the default SiteGrinder positioning behavior, it is not the only option. SiteGrinder supports relative positioning through use of a -grow layer. Content in a grow layer (and the footer below it) won't suffer this problem.
>Also, no website is fully resize resistant to any amount of text size increase. The normal expectation is that a site should accommodate two levels of font size changes in either direction. This can also be accomplished by simply keeping text layers away from each other so they don't crowd one another.
>SiteGrinder does a lot of unseen work for supporting accessibility. It always outputs the content in read order, puts title attributes on graphic buttons, doesn't clutter the HTML with IMG tag graphics ( CSS should be used for design graphics, and that's the SG default - semantically important image layers can be noted as such with the -img hint), properly sets the alt attribute when img tags are used and never puts empty alt="" attributes into the HTML (if you are doing that you should be using CSS for the graphic, not an IMG tag). Also, text -menu layers are nicely converted to UL-LI constructs for you - very important for search engines and accessibility.
>However, SiteGrinder does not yet support header tags, simply because there is no simple way to designate them from Photoshop. However, of all the changes one might want to do downstream, those are by far the easiest. It is our goal for SiteGrinder to one day support header tags in an elegant and seamless way, but I personally don't see their current absence as a big drawback. Why would someone who hand codes HTML be upset if a helper tool didn't put in header tags for them? Hope this helps, Chris
>P.S. SiteGrinder has advanced features for importing HTML, inserting HTML directly into a Photoshop layer, as well as adjusting the HEAD portion of a page. Our more savvy users have no trouble getting header tags into their SiteGrinder builds. And others just put them in downstream.
This is mostly Greek to me (and fortunately SG users don't need to understand most of it, as it happens behind the plug-in scenes) but I'd be interested to hear what other html-savvy folks think.

MediaLab's response is encouraging. It shows that they are aware of the issues and try to do something about it. It suggests though that you won't just be able to go with all the defaults, and you aren't going to understand the options unless you find out something about what's going on behind the scenes, which is really all I've been suggesting you should do. The choice of tools is up to you, if they're capable of doing the job. I will persist in believing that starting from a PSD image is not the right way to go, but I won't argue the point with anyone.
Best of luck starting out in Web design. Watch out for Internet Explorer 6.

Is there an alternative web design program to Adobe Muse that accepts .psd files?

I already frequently use Dreamweaver and Fireworks for web design. I do graphic design in Photoshop and export it to Adobe Muse to make websites. I've also used Word Press and Joomla. I love Muse; however, it forces me to flatten the psd layers first before importing. OR I have to use a tool that allows the files to go in Muse as layers but then they never end up aligning correctly. I'd like to design the web background in Photoshop and do the links elsewhere. I've ever tried to import to Dreamweaver, but it never works right.

Slicing was really designed for web use. Though I suppose it has other uses.
What you can do is move each part of the image to its own layer. Then in File>Scripts is a command to export all layers to files. Or if you have photoshop CC you can name each layer a filename with extension to generate individual images.

Can't use Web Fonts in Photoshop, but can in Muse

Hi, I'm trying to use the same font I use in Adobe Muse on an image I'm creating in Photoshop CS6. In Adobe Muse, it was easy to add fonts by simply clicking "Add Web Font" and it opened a browser for me to select from many web safe fonts. Love this feature, by the way. In Photoshop, however, I do not have the same fonts listed and can find no place to get the fonts. I've tried downloading the fonts and putting them in my font folders but they do not show up on my list and they are web safe fonts.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
The font is question is Delius.
Thanks in advance!

Hi, billlywjr73,
Right now you can't use Typekit web fonts in Photoshop.
From the Typekit help, "Typekit only permits web-use for the fonts in our library, so we can’t provide you with a version of the fonts you use via Typekit to download and install. However, each font detail page includes a link to where you can buy an installable version of the font from the font’s designer/owner."
On the Photoshop community forum, Jeff Tranberry says it's something on their radar but no ETA yet.
