General skinning issue

I administer a web service made with Zen (not by me), and what I need to do is change the design. The web-designer sent me a html, css and some flash.

The question is : How difficult would be to integrate the new design ? Are there any resources in that direction ?

Thank you very much.

You won't be able to use any HTML as zencart "cobbles" page elements together using PHP.

The zencart template format consists of:

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Header . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Left Column. . .Centre Column. . .Right Column

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Footer . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Each of these sections can be configured to load elements (such as side boxes in the left and/or right columns. And your main logo into the header).

Look at the HTML the designer sent you. Can you re-create the look using the template structure above?
