Well, your friend has created an interesting template. Only two things are required to do this: A proficiency with writing html and css (playing with wysiwyg editor doesn't count, can you write html and css from scratch?), and a familiarity with CubeCart file structure and knowledge of how the skin coding works in CubeCart.

Explaining in detail how to code the template into CubeCart would be a bit much :errm:

There are plenty of posts in the forums to help you, though, and you could always send your friend to a third-party design developer for a quote; such work is usually worth a few hundred dollars, not so bad.

I would not base this on an existing template, exactly. I'd probably take a Legend skin folder and rename it, then go to global/index.tpl and remove all code between <body> and </body> tags, then slice up the template images and being coding that file by hand, then move on to recode the other template files for categories, etc. etc. etc., a lot of work but worth it to have a unique cart appearance.
