Such a nice course! Thank you for offering it! It was been a pleasure to attend all sessions and learn the essentials of Joomla in an efficient, practical and unrushed way. Very helpful. Highly recommend it for beginners like me.

You fooled me at 10:27 when the line, "Deign changes are easy", came up. What better time to show how easy changes are to make than by inserting an 'S' in to the first word :-)

Hey!! good evening all! I am new to Joomla and I am working with a template. I see a drop down on each of the positions but I am wondering how can you get to the front end text to change it. Thanks!

I already have Joomla 2.5 installed. Would you recommend that I follow that set of videos? or is it still possible to watch the Joomla 3 videos and still be relevant. I'd prefer the version 3 videos are they are in HD and easier to follow. Thanks

The structure of websites is becoming easier and easier to create, that put the real focus mostly now on the creative side of graphic design, photography, and typography and the logical flow of information architecture.
