Okay, so you’re sitting in front of your computer and you get an urge to make a website, but you’re not all that good at CSS. You could just open up PhotoShop, make a few slices and export it to HTML and make the worst possible site ever, leveraging image maps and tables to get the job done (yuck), or you could crack open PhotoShop and then head over to PSD2CSS Online.

PSD2CSS Online is a San Diego based company. Their service takes your PSD file and creates a nicely tuned CSS awesome, based on your design - like magic! There are few things you’ll need to do to your PSD file first (guidelines), but all in all, the time you spend in PhotoShop making these changes will be far less than learning CSS if you’re completely new to it.

Now, I don’t recommend that you lean on this service as the end of all things design and never learn CSS if you’re interested in actually doing quality web development, but at the same time, it’s a great starting point, and can even be a good shortcut for established web developers that have a turnkey project they’re wanting to push through the door in the fastest time possible (time is money, folks).

Speaking of, they’re pricing model is simple. Give it a shot for free a couple of times, and for $19.95 a month - if you become addicted - you can use their service to your heart’s content. Tip: If you’re skepticle, you can use their service (full service) for free for two full weeks to see if you like it before paying a dime - pretty excellent.
