There are lots of free templates in the downloads section which are attractive and can help you figure out your own design.

I suggest you download and unzip the latest version of Zen Cart on your local drive (your computer). You don't need to be able to run Zen Cart locally (that's far more complicated), but having it available locally will give you an idea of the structure.
thanks for the word of support, I guess I have to justify having had ordered the two Zen books yesterday...
when I get them I will leaf through them. I am a person who does not take joy in working on something I perceive as difficult, (Im too old for that!)

I am not big on working hard for something that isnt that big in reward..I will wait till the book comes...and then go back to it. I took it off my system for now, I didn't want to see it..
I hope the book isn't like reading translated instructions from another country...otherwise, I will be putting them up for sale here next week...
