    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.

    If you go here: tutorials.rockettheme.com
    these are not per se instructions for making your own theme, however they are good tutorials and you can learn from them.
