    Opencart is fairly new, you'll have to custom code if you really want a quality template. Even with developed platforms like joomla, the good templates (high quailty) go for over $79 usd easily.

    opencarttemplates.com has some that look kind of average. The ones I looked at are $20 dollars.

    Open Cart uses the MVC model so you can take a look at the .tpl files or you can get someone to tackle this pretty cheaply in the BST section. I would check peoples work around here though. It can be a bit suspect.

    http://forum.opencart.com/ In some cases its better to fish someone off the carts forum as they are a bit more familiar with the required php hooks.

    I've seen lots of OpenCart templates so far and, to be honest, free templates are not at a professional level. So I guess you will have to pay for a professional looking one or build one yourself. If you are building one yourself, take a look at the MVC+L model in which OpenCart is made upon.

    Anyway, if you are not a programming pro and just want a fine looking shop, just buy yourself one.

    My recommendation for paid templates is opencarter.com, they don't have many templates, but they are the best I've seen by miles. I've bought a couple of them for my clients and they are amazing. Even more considering the price. So, if you want to save a few weeks of research, just go for this option.

    Hope this helps you find the light, mate.

    Cheers,
    John
