Try making a site like you normally would and then add in the WordPress content later on. I'm trying this method at the moment so I'll let you know how it goes.

White: You can download plenty of free skins. Or you can even edit the default theme, that's what you do when you code a Wordpress skin for someone.

You cut it up and code it just like you would for any site. But instead of putting in the content yourself, you insert the 'tags ' that WordPress uses.

Have a look through here.

You can get a blank wordpress theme here: http://www.miklb.com/blog/2005/my-si...rdpress-theme/

Should help you learn how everything works.

Go here for themes you can download and edit.

Huge list of WP themes

http://wordpress.org/extend/themes

There are lots of tags in WP, so be sure you know which ones are required for it to work and which ones can be used to better functionality.
