Templates and Joomla .. Quick question.

[machikakara]

Hello.

I am wondering when making a template for Joomla, if I have to make it in a specific way to be compatible for my scripter to install it?

Or will Joomla take any template I make, with any size and dimensions?

Please answer.

these are not per se instructions for making your own theme, however they are good tutorials and you can learn from them.
