1st mock up that client did not like : http://bmwqc.dev.dnsnetworks.ca/

Client likes the width of this site: http://www.trillium-bmwclub.ca/ & likes the looks of this site : http://bmwccottawa.org/

So here’s my idea … what if (since all the work is done –menus, modules, plug-ins installed, etc..) we simply changed the template within http://bmwqc.dev.dnsnetworks.ca/administrator to make it resemble the sites above…

Is this possible if so would someone be able to assist me ?? I would sooooooooooo appreciate it!

You mean customize/style one of the Purity III layouts to better resemble the example site your client likes best?

Not necessarily … We could even use the beez template to make it look as close as possible to the sites that I listed … is this possible??

sure it is . . . may take a bit of trial-and-error tweeking and CSS modification, but it absolutely can be done.

Would you be able to help me with it … get me started… I would so very much appreciate any help at all…
my login credentials are already the same… I’d like to stick with the logo

Should we use the beez template or would suggest the protostar? You’re the expect

I think BEEZ3 would be a great place to start – toward the site example your client seems to like.

I/We can help you along the way as best we can as you go. 🙂
