Yay!!! Coding for websites using notepad from scratch is what I do and I would love to help you out.

First thing, before you touch ANY code, is you have to have a design. So take out your paint, and roughly draw what kind of layout you want it to be, and I'll guide your step by step <3

Well I didn't know you can make websites with Photoshop so I'll teach you the old fashioned way.

First you have the overal layout for the site

This will be accomplished by combination of HTML and CSS. HTML is for coding the backbone and the content, CSS (cascading style sheets) will decorate the elements on the site

A very important concept here is DIVs. They are like boxes, you lay them out, you put boxes inside each other and make beautiful designs.

First of all show me how you will make a simple HTML page with title "My website" and put some sentences in there =) I'm sure you studied that. The Google some tutorials about CSS div, read about them and we'll get started.

We'll start on the banner first. Do you have a banner already?

Well the thing is I dunno how much you have. Post me some code and link me to SS of your site and I'll see what I can do. I mean I can practically tell you what you have to write for each section but I dunno how much you did on your own =)
