Using website layout for WordPress

[Dori]

Hi everyone!
I am planning on installing WordPress and starting a blog.
I would really like my blog to look like my website. Can I create my blog using my website template?
If so... how please?
thanks

Thanks Karen!
I have gone through the lessons and didn't find anything pertaining to this. I will check with their forum.

Did you find the answers to this? It's really as simple as searching all the available themes for WP and finding a layout you like, then editing the theme to your liking. (Most of this is done by simply creating your own image files to replace the ones that come with the theme.)

For instance, this is an example of a theme I tried on a blog of mine: click here

I didn't like the colors much, so this is the exact same theme, but with some tweaking: click here

Hi Racefan,
I have set that aside for a while trying to get my site up and running. Your blog looks great! I didn't realize it would be as easy as this....
Now I am psyched to try it! Thank you for showing me it can be done easily. It was totally daunting looking at the hundreds of pages I thought I would have to pour through.
