Having decided to finally update a very old OS store, I decided on the mini system because I did not want to revert to hacking into a template in order to make it more unique. I was also very loathe to purchase a template from some of the companies I have seen, particularly those who didn't have any thorough contact details or payment info.
The installation was straightforward and the instructions for it easy to follow, and everything worked first time. The system is well written and intuitive.
There are so many different ways in which to change things that I asked for help, and the response was quick, friendly, and helpful. I'm still playing around to try to come up with the 'perfect look', happy in the knowledge that should I need a little extra help, the support system is there.
