So I am a web designer, I design web sites in Photoshop and then I create HTML code. I am great with static web sites but I am not very good at web programming (PHP) and I would like to learn it but really cannot find much time for it lately. So my question is is there a way for me to create my own design in Photoshop/Dreamweaver and then use my own design with CMS solutions like WordPress, Joomla etc… The point is I want to create database websites and update them trough CMS but have my own design used and not those templates that you can find on web for Joomla for example. So is this possible and which CMS solution do you recommend: Joomla, WordPress or some other? Thanks

Hi,
I began following the uninstall instructions as I wanted to upgrade to 1.2. I uninstalled the component ok, but when I was uninstalling the modules the page timed out, and when I went to the modules list in the backend they weren’t to be seen.
I then thought they were uninstalled, so began to install the 1.2 modules. The installer gave an error message stating that there were already folders of that name present, and I therefore couldnt install.
So they were there, but not there???
In filemanager I could see the folders were still there. I deleted them, and then uploaded the module folders via FTP.
Basically now I can access the component through the back end, but cannot see the modules in the module list in the backend. I am now using the joomla login module so that users can still register and log in.
I have a backup of my site, but its about 3 weeks old, and I have made a lot of changes in that time. I am worried that if I load the backup I will lose all the new content and modules and template changes I have made.
