If you’re stuck like me on where to start on building up your own WordPress layout = being able to make your own layout… check out WP Designer. I’ve seen Small Potato’s work around the ‘Net with his free templates for WordPress, and finally swung by his site.

Holy crap people!

Small Potato gives a great tutorial on how to get started with your own wordpress layout - which helps those of us (ok, me) who knows “kind-of” how things work but not really… he gives an explaination of codes…. ya! and I think he does in a way that we can all understand - coders or non-coders.

I printed it out and read it. I think that helped me get a grasp on what he was doing - and then I went to the computer and went step by step with him. In 2 1/2 hours I had the template up on my demo/practice site. Very basic layout - nothing to flashy, but damn it I understand now! LOL.

He gives great tips as to where to look for CSS code and how to validate your site. How nice is that. Things I wouldn’t have thought of… he’s got it. So if you’re curious as to how to get started… Small Potato has a great tutorial.
