How flexible is moodle for creating themes?

[HodgeHi]

Hello all,

 

I was wondering how flexible Moodle is for creating themes. For example can i create a theme and move some of the content into different locations?

 

I have just started to look at Moodle and i think that it just doesn't look as good as Joomla. This is in no way dissing the excellent work of DanIt.

 

We are a primary school and i have gone through all of the themes that are on the Moodle site. I have looked at quite a few of the sites that say they create moodle themes. Most look similar to all the others. I am after something that is a bit easier to work and navigate through from a Primary School usage side of things. I have been seriously considering creating my own theme for primary Schools, but if the framework is 'quite stiff' then i don't see the point.

 

I have looked into drupal and am running Joomla for my school site. I would just like something that looks good and also has the simplicity for Primary School pupils (and Staff) to use.

 

I hope this makes sense.

i've always used the newbury college one to amend, its pretty nicely coded.
