Hi

I have been developing sites for some time but need to take things to the next level ie a fully functioning site that can make my clients a little 'happier'. I'm looking for ecommerce solutions and this looks bloody great tbh. I work in html css(and flash but thats irrelevant- so why did just say that) I'm just wondering if there are any coding skills required ie PHP MySQL or does the CubeCart template take care of everything... if so I'm signing up right now!!

Sorry if this seems a stupid question I just thought I'd ask the people who'd know best.. the existing customers.

Cheers

Sam

Pretty easy ... I just finished this site using Cubecart:

There are a few tweaks that need to be made after the stock install, but overall it's been great for the price.

Yes, for a basic store you'll need no PHP/mySQL changes.

I've just finished a store selling Mobility Scooters This is pretty standard CC4.

The only change is a Flash Slideshow (with appropriate XML generator) to the homepage.

The customer did not want any major design work, so the template is a small tweak on the built-in ones with colour changes and logo addition.

There was a minor release mid-project, and updating was very easy due to no code changes (and a minor template tweak).

Depending on your clients needs, you may need to use 3rd party modifications, or even hire someone for bespoke work - so its worth downloading a trial of CC4 and getting to grips with it before you start quoting.

If you are a skilled designer, then you may be able to trade skills with a developer.
