I want to use my own design - Dodge - 2011-02-08

Hi,
Does anyone want to tell me how to go about putting my own webpage design in the templates folder?
I simply want to use GS on my website which I designed.
How do I go about it?
Thanks for any useful information.
Alan

in your theme directory there should be 2 installed themes.

Check out the template.php files in each...

Is it a case of copy and pasting the themes / templates and adapting them to my own design?

yeah, I guess, but just look for the function calls like:

Code:
<?php get_page_title(); ?>
get_page_title() use this in place of your page's H1 title
Code:
<?php get_page_content(); ?>
get_page_content() use this in place of your page's body
Code:
<?php get_theme_url(); ?>
get_theme_url() use this to link to files/folders within your theme's folder /path-to-gs/theme/your-theme-folder/
