For my two pence. The look of that site is top notch. Seems customising
their templates looks flexible at the most.

I know exactly what you mean Morgan - am having Actinic Catalog learning
curve from hell problems at the moment.
Take a look at http://www.chocolatefrog.co.uk/acatalog/
It's still in development at the moment, so it's changing from minute to
minute. Also, the credit card facility is set up but in test mode, so no
money is being debited from customer accounts as yet.
If this is the future of cheap ecommerce solutions I think we're doing
something badly wrong. The Actinic templates are devlishly difficult to
understand and even harder to modify. Trying to get this software to do what
I want it to has almost reduced me to tears this week!
Mind you, have been working until midnight or 1 am every night for the last
3 weeks has meant nerves are fraying anyway ;-)
The site's not fully live yet, but if you guys can spot any bloopers I'd
greatly appreciate it.
Thanks guys,
