    Hello folks!
    New to the forum, and right on to the point (i know, its not nice :) )

    I have some experience coding HTML/CSS, but just few days ago, i started playing with slicing PSD files and coding it into valid HTML/CSS, and i have run into a problem.
    So, i downloaded free PSD template(http://oi46.tinypic.com/152ksux.jpg) to practice (width 1020 height 1120), and i dont know how to start.Theme isnt full width, its boxed design, so i dont know to what dimension should i set <div id="wrapper"> which will hold the design...This original size looks too big, what with users who are on 15" screens with 1024x768 resolution...

    If anyone could point me in the right direction, it would be awesome :)

    Thanks ;)

    If you don't want to fluidify your content i.e. you want to fix your width, there's how to do it on this particular template/example:

    Hey, thanks for answer :)
    Okay, basically i would need to see what width is between those 2 borders (page content) and set the DIV width to that.I get that, but i dont understand what you meant by " and place the extra to mark the spot"?
    Can you recommend any link for this fluid solution?

    Once again, thanks a bunch

    Currently I got the interest in the conversion of PSD to HTML/CSS. For me this serves a great help. Thanks for sharing...
