Where Can I Learn Joomla?
I tried playing around with Joomla not long ago, and although I could manage a couple of things, I could never get past removing the "Joomla" sign, thus not being able to make it appear like my own site.
I was always able to get shallow advice like "switch themes," which was pretty unhelpful.
Please don’t tell me to go to that Joomla support site that’s on the Joomla page. It’s pretty bad, as well. I don’t want something where I’ll feel lucky if I get an answer. I need the real, best way to learn it and best way to get my problems handled, if possible.
Is there a Joomla for dummies?
Where, please – thanks!
None of the advice I got about removing the Joomla sign was the least bit helpful.
I tried to get into Joomla myself and I agree that the online documentation is pretty useless. The guide I downloaded had entirely blank sections waiting to be updated by the community. So I gave up.
I always recommend buying a book if at all possible when it comes to learning a complicated piece of software or programming. It’s all there without endless searching on the web. Luckily, there are quite a few books on Joomla available at Amazon.

Its true the Joomla documentation does not help much. (I could say it does not help at all). There is a very good tutorial about creating your own theme here:

Apart from that there are many books (search in amazon for joomla) but they focus more on how to manage content and not on how to change the layout.
