applying a new template

As it states in the brief we have to change the template for the site. I went to www.joomla24.com and browsed through the free templates. I came across one called 'Arausio Macula' and applied, with some difficulty as the server kept crashing, it to the site (http://www.joomla24.com/Joomla_1.5.x_Downloads/Joomla_1.5_Templates/Arausio_Macula_J1.5.html)

The template, however, is in German (or Dutch!)so it makes going through the code a bit harder. However, the Firefox add-on 'Firebug' is a great help and allowed me to change parts of the code. For example the button that says 'top' was in another language and Firebug enabled me to locate that part in the code and change it.
