Anyone willing to help me create a template?

I am looking into converting a layout into a mambo layout.

i'd help, but probably have to wait go into more deep template editing for Mambo. I know how to change stuff on a already made template, but I'm sure i can squeeze time outta my "busy" schedule.
(I might not be able to help a WHOLE lot.) (Especially since finals are coming up...i hate finals..)

Go to this site... it's the 'simplest' mambo template / layout that I've ever done.

It's based on AKOOPERATOR template.

that really nice BigJohn, but i was wondering something

Most templates usually require that there be a link to the site on the bottom or something like that. But if I change a template, do I still have to leave the link at the bottom of the template? I just always wondered about that.

Oh and when I mean change I mean like colors are TOTALLY different and some parts of the template are cut out and things like that.

Thanx for reading this post.

Colors are set in the CSS.

You don't have to have a FOOTER. Just edit the mambo "footer.php" file and comment stuff out that you don't want.

All you have to do is look at ANY mambo template and you'll see how to call sections / modules. So, you can craft your own template in HTML and plug the mambo stuff into it...
