Any Other Templates?

I don't find any of the templates tempting. I need a three column design that I can modify the corners to make it fit my "theme" and colors. Is there anywhere else to get themes/templates/skins?

Can you explain what you mean by "modify the corners"?

I think you can use the Site Builder to make any number of columns you like, and colors are all changeable.
I imported my site from Ning 2.0 almost a year ago. So I started with the standard jamroom Ningja skin (which I thought was somewhat unappealing but it was geared towards ex-ning users) and I began to change it to my own liking, saving it (using the 'clone skin' tool) as my custom skin with a new name. Now I have my own skin that I really like. I make changes as needed on my custom skin, but I leave a copy of the original Ningja skin intact and unchanged to apply JR updates to and then make 'compares' with my custom skin.

I imagine you too are going to want to make all the design choices on your own custom skin, and make it look just the way you want. You can make almost any changes you want to YOUR custom skin- you're definitely not restricted to keeping it as it looks out of the box.

'Ning Three Column' layouts can easily be replicated using our SiteBuilder module. Basically, you select/create the page layout then add 'widgets' to the locations to show the required content. Many ex-Ningsters have already gone this route. Alternatively, if you are familiar with HTML and CSS you can do what Strumelia suggests and create a custom site exactly how you want it. Jamroom is fully flexible.

I suggest that you try Jamroom out with our 14 day free trial on 'Jamroom Hosted' - https://www.jamroom.net/hosting - Spin up a server and let me know if you want help importing your NIng3 members.

I was going to do the 14 day trial but it wants my credit card and I don't have the $19.00 until next Thursday. I know basic coding and I still own Microsoft Frontpage, but that's about it. I need something smooth, easy on the eyes and I want to be able to have the site have a background with a header graphic. I have all the graphics already just don't know how to get JAMROOM to do it.

As for modifying the corners, I mean rounded with leaves on them. (It's a "grove"). The colors are interchangeable but there is no way to have graphics, just color. Like this site here, that we are on, it's just color and all the corners are fairly straight cut. I need to be able to have a basic outline for each block that I create. I want the blocks to have one background and the site to have another.

Your credit card will not be charged until the end of the 14 day trial period. If before then you decide that Jamroom isn't for you, just delete your server and no charges will be made.

This can likely all be done with some CSS editing on your site. Can you point us to your Ning site so that we can see what you want to achieve?
Thanks

As soon as Ning sites come back online yes.

Well duh, might help if I gave you the link huh? LOL! http://akkadianaturaegrove.org

Have taken a quick look and yes, that site would be fairly easy to replicate with SiteBuilder and some CSS editing. If you want to send me a login as a support ticket I can take a proper look around to see what is needed and how it might be done.

So you can see the site?

Yes - Just tried it again and its still there.
Presumably you can't and I guess that is part of the ongoing issues Ning are having with their servers?
Where are you - I'm in the UK. Perhaps its just routing issues they are having?

I'm in the USA, glad you can see it.

I'm in the US as well and can access the site with no issues.

I also think the design can be easily integrated with Site Builder and some CSS modifications as Paul has mentioned.
