I need a teacher

  • I'm a designer with a limited knowlege of the workings of html or CSS and I have finally designed up a Wordpress theme that I am happy with.

    It is ready to rock but I really suck at CSS at the moment, but I'm hoping to change that. I'm really enthusiastic about learning to code properly.
    I'm looking for someone, or somefew, to help me get through this theme as a bit of a workshop.
    I will be doing all of the work but I will have a lot of questions.
    I thought it would be better to post one question for a lot of help rather than a lot of questions for individual problems.

    I've attached the design and I have all the images properly exported, all colours, fonts, font sizes and dimensions prepared so I really am ready to go.


    Thanks for anyone who can give me a dig out.

    PS. I can't pay anyone. I can only offer my own skills as a designer.[attachment=0]Kos_website-11.png[/attachment]

    I thought I would get email notifiers automatically when I posted this. Only checked today, months later. I really appreciate the comments.
    I now have the site pretty much finished. A friend of mine found some time to run me through the basics and I just got on with it
