SharePoint 2010 is a powerful tool and now boasts a substantial set of new and attractive features. Analysts such as Gartner have given Share Point 2010 rave reviews, which can be found here.
This means that many more organisations will be looking to implement SharePoint, which then naturally leads to the customisation and branding of such implementations.
I hope to write a series of blogs covering how to customize your SP2010 Site using SP Designer 2010. So here goes…I am going to begin by outlining the basic steps in this post and adding detailed descriptions to future posts.
Step 1: Create the design in Photoshop or any other tool.
Step 2: Convert that design in to HTML/CSS
Step 3: Finally you can use SharePoint Designer 2010 to embed the ASP.net controls (this will deliver the dynamic content, such as menus and the main content) in to the HTML.
SharePoint 2010 Designer provides some very useful tools which enable you to embed ASP controls in to Master Page HTML very easily.
My next post will cover how to embed the ASP controls in to the HTML, since the first two steps are relatively simple.
