Open Source Joomla Templates
|
|
Joomla is the ultimate open source content system, so it
makes sense that the templates that make creating your site so simple should be
open source too. While you can certainly choose to pay for a professionally
designed Joomla template--and that can sometimes be the best solution,
depending on your needs--using an open source Joomla template does have its
advantages.
First, they're usually free (you can find some of these at
Joomalaya.com). While you'll have to search around a bit to find a template
that's worth more than it costs, there are a number of great designs out there
that could fit your topic to a "T".
But the biggest advantage of using an open source Joomla
template is that you can easily alter it. For those with the most basic design
skills, open source Joomla templates can be a great way to create a site
with a unique look without tripping up on tricky code. And for experienced
designers, they can be a neat shortcut that leaves the foundations in place while
they build their own look and feel.
Whatever your level of experience open source Joomla
templates are always worth a look when you're building your Joomla site. |
