Convert Your Photoshop Designs in 3 Simply Ways

By James Desjarlais


When it comes to developing websites, PSD to HTML conversion plays an important role. When a graphic designer creates a design in Photoshop, this file is not compatible with web browsers. It must be converted to HTML. HTML stands for Hyper Text Mark-up Language. This is the basic programming language for websites and it is read by web browsers such as Internet Explorer, Opera, Chrome, Firefox, and Safari.

If you are a graphic designer there are 3 ways in which you can convert your designs into a website. These are: 1) do it yourself, 2) use software or 3) hire a PSD to HTML Coding company to do it for you.

Do It Yourself - If you have knowledge of HTML and you know how to slice and code websites then you can easily do it yourself. The disadvantage is that you must spend time on this instead of doing what you do best, which is graphic design. Some people like to focus on their core competencies and not dabble in too many things at once.

Use of Software - There actually is software available which will help you convert your design to HTML by installing a simple add-on to Adobe Photoshop. This will save you a lot of time but the result is not always optimal. You will also have to learn how to operate the software and it will never have the same quality results as a human will achieve.

Hire a PSD to XHTML Conversion Company - This is probably the most popular option. The companies which specialize in this are very knowledgeable and they are capable of converting your design very quickly and with good results. There are many of them and it's important to find a reliable and trustworthy company which offers affordable prices without sacrificing quality. I highly recommend doing your due-diligence on any company you hire. Simply doing a search in Google for "psd to html service" will get you started.
