New Screencast: Building a Website (3 of 3): WordPress Theme | CSS-Tricks
Third part of building a website screencast - taking html and css and converting it to a WordPress theme.
" In part 3 of this series, we take the HTML and CSS that we have already created for this design, and convert it into a WordPress theme. We start with a completely “blank” WordPress theme, then take different parts of the HTML and put them where they need to be in the theme. We are careful to keep as much dynamic WordPress stuff in there as possible, for example, dynamically creating the menu, loading jQuery the smart way, and more."
