    JoomlaShack has some nice free templates. I use Joomla and WordPress the only thing I don't care for about Joomla is that you have to use 3rd party plugins for commenting and none of them are nearly as clean and easy as WordPress.

    Yes, Joomla is an opensource CMS and comes with three free templates
    automatically when you download it. There are also other free templates
    available for Joomla from other people here in this forum.


    You have tons of free plugins to choose from with Joomla. See :

    extensions.joomla.org.

    Have fun !
