I'm new to Joomla! and am planning to create a site that takes advantage of its features. I will be building a custom template and must make it so that the client can add their own content, whenever they want.
My question is, how much longer does it take to write a site for Joomla? This is my first crack at this and I need to know in order to provide an accurate quote for my client. I'm figuring about 2-3 hours for the installation plus about 30% more time for Joomla-specific coding (will definitely use CSS, and attempt to keep all elements added in that format). Is this accurate? Should I give myself more time? Less? Help!

Re: How much longer does it take?
Installation of Joomla took me under 30 minutes, as far as coding a template, It really depends on your skills. If you have fairly advanced css and html skills i wouldn't think that coding and publishing this template would take more than an hour.

Thanks Mark! I'm an intermediate CSS coder, I still get a little tripped up if I run into problems but I can usually get myself out of a jam. Any other opinions on how much time I need? I really want to get a lot of people's thoughts on it!
