I have a wordpress theme with the photoshop file, am I missing something cause how I am suppose to edit the photoshop graphic and cut it up as per the original theme graphics so that they relate perfectly?

The photoshop file should have either slices or guides setup. If not, it isn't a very good theme. The other thing I've done in the past is to open the jpg image that I am going to edit (the one that is used on the website) and open up the psd. Make the edits that I want to that section, then create a new layer on top of all. I press CTRL + ALT+ SHIFT + E, which makes a copy of all visible layers on that new layer. Then I drag that layer to the jpg I had open and lower the opacity to about 60-85% and move it around until it is positioned just like the old image. That's what I do, anyway.
