AbleCommerce Shopping Cart Software

Is it easy for someone that is a skilled webdesigner but never used Ablecommerce to understand how to edit or create a new template? (he knows CSS very well)
Does he needs to know ASP.NET? Is there a newbie site for ASP.NET skin feature?

Thanks

AbleCommerce re-skinning is quite easy, an experienced designer without any prior knowledge of AbleCommerce can easily learn how to re-skin AbleCommerce with little effort. AbleCommerce makes use of the ASP.NET Themes, on web root App_Themes folder contains the themes for application. Each theme folder contains its resource like images, stylessheets and skin files which are used for styling server controls. All layout, sidebars, header, footer and contents for store side could be controlled through scriptlets. You can view the scriptlets in App_Data/Scriptlets/Default/ folder. One can modify the required files offline and then upload to server or there is a built in editor which will allow you to edit the scriptlets HTML in the browser. There are hundreds of forums posts discussing skinning issues and a great source of knowledge for you.
