Thanks for all the replies.
I plan on getting the 1st video (installing WP and setting up a theme) this week, after editing / revisions should be online by Monday.
@cwrigley I see you’ve already started a Showcase thread, this may be moved to a separate showcase section in due course.
@batesy I don’t know of any tutorials on theme building, if you mean HTML -> WordPress conversion this is something I may put together myself over a series of tutorials (there’s so much that goes into a theme that one video would put people to sleep :-) The site you linked to was built by someone who probably put the whole site together (including the book image) in Photoshop and then converted it to HTML – this would be something completely separate from converting HTML -> WP.
