Yes its not as complicated as most people say, if youre a decent webmaster, you will (should) have enough experience with html/css to be able to modify smarty tpl files yourself. Full integration yourself, probably not, you could maybe get the bulk of it done yourself but the kinks would have to be worked out by a full time designer. I believe any full time designer should be able to integrate it once they play around with it a bit and realize how it works.

Its a tad time consuming because there are so many tpl files and you have to go and look where its calling the file from, then go edit that one, then go down another line on the index and find out where its calling the next line of code from, go and edit that one, and so many pages call for the same tpl file so you have to know smarty commands well enough to be able to tell it to use this code if its this page calling for the tpl and the other piece of code if its another page calling for it. You can find most of these smarty commands on the CMS support page. Those little extra pieces are what typically confuse beginners or make the learning curve a bit more than the average CMS

But any experienced designer should be able to do it no problem, especially if they install their own copy and play with it a bit. and i recommend any designer who doesn't know how, to learn it. there is definitely work out there for you since the few gfy designers here overcharge by a ton. simply due to people not knowing where else to go

I integrated my design in a couple days and i am not a designer. i do not know code from scratch, all it took was simply cutting code and placing it in the right spots and looking at other integrations to see what they did and the special commands they used to achieve a few things i was seeking. if you have another site that is integrated to look at, makes it even that much more simpler
