    Joomla First Time User – Help Appreciated?


    2010 - 09.05
    Hey there. This is my first time setting up my own Joomla website. Any help is apprieciated!

    My Questions are:

    - How do you actually buy a Template. I know theres plenty of sites selling them, but how does it work. Can I just do a one off payment and then download the Template to host via FTP?

    - How much can you alter a template? Like this for example: http://joomla.siteground.com/index.php?mos_change_template=siteground58

    Could I make ‘Easy customization’ and ‘Free themes’ appear in the one column so all the news is visable without it being cut off.
    Could I change the Green font and lines to a different color?
    Could I add a subnavigation? So when I hover/click something in the top right navigation, there is pages WITHIN those pages. So if you had multimedia, you could have Music and Videos as pages within.

    Sorry for all the ‘could i’, but basically I want to know how much I can alter and customise the templates.

    - Thanks, any other useful bits of information are welcome :)
