How to: Implementing a PSD Template
#1
What you want to first do, is save each individual image and upload them to your site.
The CSS
1. Background
Code:
body
{
background-image:url('http://wwwurltobackground.png');
background-repeat:repeat x,y;

Background-repeat:repeat x,y; will repeat the image you have up and down throughout your website.
X will repeat up
Y will repeat down
no-repeat will not repeat the background.


2. Alignment
Code:
position:absolute;
left: x ;
top:  x;
  width: x;
  height: x;

Move Left - Use a negative value for left.
Move Right - Use a positive value for left.
Move Up - Use a negative value for top.
Move Down - Use a positive value for top.
Width is explanatory, as is height.
(replace X with the numbers you want.)

B. The HTML
1. Using <div> Tags
Code:
<div id="insert section name">Content</div>
The <div></div> tags define the part of the website you are going to call in the CSS.

For example
Code:
#insert section name{
background-image:url('http://www.contentimage.com/contentbackground.png');
position:absolute;
left: 350;
top: 130;
  width: 676;
  height: 458;
What we did was call the section using #name of div. And then aligned it using the Left, Top, Width, and Height attributes. You can find a list and examples of attributes
Here


Final Product:
index.html (Click to View)
What we did here was use CSS to align the content box, and to make the text italicized. We also called a background using CSS.
