Having trouble putting zen cart into my own website

I have a website - www.ritepartyhire.com.au and would like to put zen cart into this site but am having difficulty trying to find out a simple way of doing it.

Can anyone help.

Cute site!

You should be able to reproduce the look/feel of your site in Zen Cart.

What did you want Zen Cart to do for you?

thanks - I want it so that people can order the equipment we have for rental (with photos) and also sell partyware products (balloons, plates etc) and go through to checkout, but am having problems trying to work out how to incorporate it into my established website.

You basically have 2 choices:

1) Design a Zen Cart that replaces your current site
2) Have a link from your current site that takes the visitor to your Zen Cart (you can duplicate the look of your current site, so it's seamless) and use Zen Cart to list only the products that are available for rent/sale.

If you look at the Fan Odyssey site in my sig, the Zen Cart version replaced the original site. Parts of the original information is under "past events".
