Meet Creatif
Provided below are two tutorials on building the Photoshop layout and HTML/CSS for Creatif. Most of the styles and pages we need to build our themes are covered in these, however you should use the final files provided with this book when building Creatif. A few extra styles not mentioned below, are added in the CSS that are needed in the WordPress development.
The Creatif Design Tutorial – Layout in Photoshop We’re going to begin building the Creatif themes by putting together a design in Adobe Photoshop. You can begin from scratch by creating a new canvas in Photoshop, sized at around 1300px wide x 1400px high. Alternatively you will find completed Photoshop PSD files in the files that came with this book. Colour Palette A good place to begin a design is by selecting an appropriate colour palette.
