Designing websites is a creative process and it isn’t easy at all to get started if your don’t have the right ideas, inspiration and tools available. There are several different ways you can approach the design process and depending on what type of design task you’re facing some have pros and some have cons. If you’re designing a lot of pages for a complex application for a customer that requires to approve the usability and easy of use early an ongoing it may be a good idea to start with a mock-up (simple html page hierarchy with minimal design to start with). If on the other hand you’re designing a blog theme with a very sophisticated layout containing many textures and images it may be much better to start the design process in an application like Photoshop. This is the approach this article covers end to end by presenting you with more than 160 high quality Tutorial that guides you step by step in building up a web interface all the way from scratch. 
Actually I don’t think that most people will have to be attend design courses or Photoshop training any more to learn the basics; most people can be self-taught thanks to the many generous experts willing to share their tricks in free online tutorials.
Once your design is finished you need to get it sliced up and converted into web markup. This is where it gets though for people that are not programmers and professional web designers. These articles may help you in that phase so check them out:

How To Create a Horizontally Scrolling Site
If web pages were made out of wood, the grain would be running up and down. Vertical is the natural flow of web layout. When page elements reach the right edge of the browser window and go over, the flow defaults to “wrapping” that element down onto the next line. The more content on the page, the taller it gets, not the wider. Why is this? Because it just makes sense. Our eyes are used to reading fairly short lines of text, so if we were to see a paragraph of text in one long straight line, it would be painful to read. Paragraphs need to have line breaks in them to be readable (hence the term “blocks” of text). We sure as heck don’t want to hard-code line breaks into the markup ourselves. Obviously, we don’t have to, the browser does this wrapping for us. Thus the vertical expansion.
