I've got this design you see
Hi there. I’m a newbie. Yeah, big surprise there I’m sure. Well, I’m about to surprise you again if that was the case. I’ve got a few questions.
I’ve got a site designed and almost ready to upload. I’ve recently been searching for a CMS to start placing future sites in.. this one will be the first. The question is this…
How difficult is it to take an existing site design as I have now locally on my hard drive and drop it into Textpattern? With that, do I have to retag or change anything before I do place it in Textpattern? I’m just kind of clueless on where to start after I’ve loaded textpattern on my server.
I’ve no doubt that a million people have asked these same questions and I hate to be added to that list, but I’d really like some help before I dive it and try to “wing it” on my own. I’d prefer to draw from the wisdom of you fine fellows and fellowettes that are experienced Textpatternerers.
Thanks in advance for your help…. that is, if you so choose to take on this assignment.
out for now.

Welcome!

You can use you’re own page markup for the pag templates but yes, you will have to add txp:tags to tell the CMS what to put where and will have to add some site organisation structure. You’ll also have to insert your content. I think you’ll find that will be the case with more or less any CMS…
