    Thank you for these wonderful tutorials. I spent that last few hours replicating one of the samples using Photoshop. I’m just wondering if there are any instructions on creating a website out of these samples. E.g – How do I create hyperlinks, etc? What format do I save it in after creating it in Photoshop? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again.
