Can anyone give me any advice or direct me to a good tutorial on converting an Adobe Illustrator template to a WordPress template?

I’ve read a lot about doing this by using slices, but I’ve also heard sites built with slices are a nightmare to maintain. This site will be updated frequently so I can’t have that problem. Also, the site’s background has a gradient, so I’m not sure how slices would work with that.

If I have to use slices to make this template though I could go with a solid color, but the gradient is preferred.

Thanks

    You are going to want to break down all of the elements of your illustrator template. And then build that from the ground up on creating your WordPress theme. Since you have a gradient background, slicing it all up would not be the best option. Take all of the elements of this Illustrator template and save them separately.

    Then I would familiarize with the steps on turning these elements into a fully function WordPress theme
