    All these days I was content using premade themes and now I am exploring custom sites.


    What are the pros and cons of PSD, PSD coded and psd converted to wordpress templates.


    Regards.

    The only problem with completely unique templates is that you have to do the work! The benefit, though, is that its coded just the way you want it and without sponsor links.

    I've done a few blogs where we take the design from the main site and apply it to WordPress. The integration is seamless and its no effort at all.

    If you have access to a designer who can do nice PSDs I'd do that every time.

    Thanks Sarah for the reply.

    How long will it take for someone who knows what he is doing to integrate a single page lander.

    how longs a piece of string?

    If it is similar in structure to something that already exists it might be done quite quickly but if it has some quirky features it'll take longer. I'd say allow a day if you want it done well but if you look over in BST you'll get a better idea of what the members here charge.
