Template help.

[Saphira]

Is there an easy way to convert a free web template to work with this script? I suck at graphics and I don't want to have to try and create a template from scratch... :(

Good question, I too, want to know that.

I would start at this tutorial:

Things are a bit different on the new system, but most is the same. I'll be posting a walkthrough for the new system soon that will tell you how to convert / create a theme. :)

The template I use for my site was 90% finished, from scratch, for the old system (without the :ELEMENT: parts, just the html structure and css style) when the new script came out. I just opened "blank.php" and looked at the template part at the bottom for the new :ELEMENT: tag differences, and it worked great! You should be able to do the same with any basic html template by following the instructions on the link BMR777 gave you up there. It's a great tutorial; very clear.
