Top PSD to HTML Conversion Tutorials

Sometimes as designers we have to let go of our designs and turn over our work to a professional in a different field. For example, often print design and print production have very separate areas of expertise. So handing over your files to a print production expert who can properly match colors and other important skills is really important for a final, polished product.

The same can go for web design. Often a prototype design is developed in Photoshop and a static image is sent to the client for approval. What happens next can be incredibly frustrating for designers and their clients – often going from the Photoshop version to a practical web design causes departures from the approved design or intense, fist pounding frustration for the designer trying to get it all perfect.

That’s where some extra resources can come in very handy. You have two options for going from PSD to HTML:

1. Do it yourself with the help of some great guides
2. Send it to a professional team to convert PSD to HTML for you.

Yes, there are firms whose primary job is taking your PSD files and converting them to perfectly fitted web-layouts. While you have to give up some profits to these firms, the time saved and the energy conserved is often well worth it.

However, if you are determined to DIY, check out this series of guides to help make converting your PSD files to HTML on your own much less painful.
