Shopping carts

[deuchar1]

Hey guys,

I might be posting in the wrong area here but if anyone can offer any suggestions they'd be greatly appreciated!
I'm helping a friend design a website which he now wants a shopping cart integrated into. I've been looking at using Zen Cart - my question being how easy is it to skin? I won't be customising an existing template - I'll need to place cart elements into an existing site design.

Anyone know if this is easy enough? Or alternatively does anyone know of any carts which are easier to work with?

Thanks in advance,
G

I am a designer and have done a number of carts and can say Zen Cart is by far, the best I have tried. Although it does not have all the bells and whistles of some other carts, what it does have works spectacularly! If you need to skin a cart but doent have the time or knowhow to do it yourself, check out something like monster templates.

If you are looking to "fit" and existing sites design on top of ZC, you will really need to know what you are doing and have all the appropriate source files.

Good Luck!

EDIT: Can you provide a link to the existing site? Perhaps I can be more specific.
