So my friend made me this awesome layout I wanted to turn into a website.

But...I have no idea...how to turn it into html or whatever. I tried reading guides and tutorials but it just flies over my head.

Is there any way someone can help me get started..or point me to a really good tutorial that I might be able to understand?

I'm trying to turn this layout into a website:

:) Help would be appreciated. I'm a total noob at this kind of thing.

you could go to this website
http://www.w3schools.com/
it's pretty easy to follow
hope this helped

Yes, W3 Schools is an awesome place to start and for a few advanced tutorials you should check out sites like Net Tuts+.

Hmm...I read through them and there is still one thing I don't get.

How do I...like....code the image into the background layout.....

I don't understand that part if someone could help or post a link directly to the part of the tutorial that explains that. Maybe I'm just blind and missed it.

Just take the image and place it inside a DIV, like this:


Replace the pound symbols with appropriate values until it's positioned where you want it, then replace URL with the image's direct link.
