I just started out trying to put a web site together for my own business. Web design is not my primary job so I basically wanted it to get it up running as fast as possible. I wanted some flexibility with the layout design so I avoided cookie cutter templates.
I started out choosing WordPress Thesis theme. As the time goes on, I have most of the site content lined up. However, I am struggling to put all the pieces together to make the site design look uniform and professional. I tried CSS a little bit, spending a lot time on aligning web elements, font sizes, color coordination that sort of things and felt it would take me forever to finish the site.
Does anyone have a suggestion of a free tool suitable for beginner’s skill level to reduce development time & compatible with WordPress Thesis theme?
My line of business is selling products. So the site is pretty much like a product catalog with images, contents, news, & blogs.
I read a little on this site about CSS framework, also checked out jQuery-UI. just not sure if they are the right approach for what I want to accomplish.
Any suggestions are very much appreciated!
