    What you've bought is basically a collection of pictures. You may as well have pointed your camera at the screen and taken a photo of a website.

    Even if you can code them yourself, PSD templates are really only any value as layout/design ideas. I hope you didn't pay too much for 'em.

    You need to code them into html/css format. Use slice tool or ask for a slicer - they're a lot cheaper over here

    Slicing PSDs is a terrible way to make a website. If you want to make a real website, the only way to do it is to learn X/HTML.

    Don't feed the PSD template monster!

    image ready should enable you to optimize the site into html format . from there you will need to get an editor like dreamweaver to re-code the site.

    You need someone to codes it for you, HTML/CSS.
    If you already have graphics, the design you want and they all in the PSD file, it will be much easy for the person whom will codes it. Pay him/her less not in full price, and have the person codes it for you.

    You need to be able to either slice the image using Photoshop or lift the images from the .psd file, make them their own images then code it up.

    There are plenty of people on this forum (myself included) that can offer a .psd to HTML service for you, best bet would be to place a topic in the BST forum :)

    Personally I lift the images from the .psd, make canvasas and paste the separate images. Yes it takes longer, but the image quality is always better and it gives you the freedom to code the site exactly how you want to.

    Hope everything works out for you :)

    If you can't code them it's not a problem to find another free templates.

    Do you know the iProfits products! They have iProfit template pack, iProfit Niche Pack, iProfit E-Books pack and they are actually really cool but a lil expensive! I thing $25 each but I bought all of the three for $ 5! And I don't regret it! Some very useful stuff is in there! Oh and They gave the reseller license as well! I bought it from pay loadz! I may sell it for $ 3 each all the packs but first I should be a member for 14 days to post in the Buy Sell or Trade Forum!

    I have been interested in http://dreamtemplate.com/ ! Its awesome! My friend has an account that he got some how free, I hope I had one and get hands on some of those great templates!

    It is always a good idea to avoid buying psd only templates as it take much longer to code. Next time look for psd and html templates.
