Hi Michelle,

eZ publish layout is div based, this means that you can easily change layout using CSS techniques only. Good examples are in contribs section in Site Styles category so you can see what can be done without changing templates.

Quick examples:

In article section is good tutorial how to create own site style.

eZ publish uses templates for content presentation, so you can define your own templates which are html/xhtml based.

I like very much the eZ site-skin.

Can it be downloaded and used for own purposes?

If not,how and where exactly has the program to be modified, so the site looks exactly like the main eZ site?

when skinning eZ you don't need to be an html expert, but you should have a good understanding of css.
If you want to use your own html, you'll have to make your own complete pagetemplate / design. Not recomended unless you have some special demands.
