Create an Elegant WordPress Theme – Photoshop Graphic Design Tutorial 12

And there you have it. Duplicate the post as many times as you wish, and throw in a footer. I used a very simplistic footer consisting of Credits to WordPress, and the usage of Creative Commons, which protects some of your rights to the design. You may use the RSS Icon to create the valid XHTML/CSS Format.

I hope that you enjoyed this tutorial, and grasped at least some of the concepts that you can use while creating a WordPress theme or any design, in general. For some really nice WordPress themes, also check out Theme Galaxy Premium Themes

Hi vicky,
When you download the icon you dont need to put it anywhere specicly you just have to open it and add it to the document/image by draging the layer in to it.

Hope this helps

Thank you Tim, sorry i wasnt there to answer your question Vicky. The RSS Document is just like any document with layers. Like Tim said, you will have to open that document and then drag it over to your template.

Just one thing. I look around the net and see a lack of tutorials on creating good animations. I find tutorials that are fairy good but have never found one where i can say wow! thats brill! Any plans on doing a really good animation tutorial?

I am not really into animations so i dont think that i will be releasing any tutorials on animations. You may use the design for tutorial purpose only in other words, you may not sell it. Credit has to be given in-case you do decide to show it off.
