hi <br /><br />I am trying to make a template for an ebay shop. I have downloaded a template from boxedart.com. <br /><br />The template came in a zipped folder which included a template which had latin in the place of where i was to put my text etc. I have opened the psd files with photoshop and made certain changes to the titles and text etc.<br /><br />So now i have a completed template as regards the text. I will need to make changes to certain areas where i want images but i will do this later.<br /><br />For the moment i am trying to upload the template to my host and see it><img src='http://www.webdesignerforum.co.uk/style_images/1/post_snapback.gif' alt='*' border='0' /></div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->Is it just a psd or have you coded the html to go with it?<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--><br /><br /><br />Hi dizi<br /><br />thanks for the quick reply...<br /><br />at the moment all i have done is open the psd, done a few changes via photo shop then used the "save for web" option thus saving as html and images. i now have 2 folders, images which has the gifs and jpeg and template folder which has firefox file, which when i double click it open as the webpage minus the images if that makes sense.<br /><br />thanks<!--content-->
