Ok, I'm confused, you say Photoshop and GIMP can be used and that the plus is layers. Could you elaborate a little on how layers help coding? I'm a little (read: very) rusty when it comes to css, so maybe this was always something I should know?

If you have a flat image with a textured background it will be difficult to extract images that change their position within the skin. For example if you add headline with an icon to your journal it can have different positions - according to how many headlines you want to have.
So if you have a flat image you can just cut it out with the background of it's current position. When coded that will only work for that one position.
But if you have layers you can hide all the background stuff and save the icon with a transparent background and it doesn't matter where you place it, because nothing of the background is part of the icon.
Does that help?

Can you tell me what kind of error you get? Otherwise it's hard to figure out what is going wrong. But usually it is rather easy to use CSS templates

YOU ARE THE MOST AMAZING PERSON EVER.
I was trying to read the dA site code for two HOURS trying to figure out which part of the code applied to which and most of the time, I'd pick wrong...
I learned twice as much in twenty minutes reading THIS than I could sitting there skimming code for AGES.

I don't think so at all! I still consider myself a beginner (I'm somewhere inbetween the beginner/intermediate stage) and I see this as a very nicely worded library of terms and the like.
