Artisteer has a pretty intuitive menu and features outline that makes it easy to understand, even for a novice like me. To proceed the process you should choose what type of theme you wish to build – wordpress theme, drupal theme or joomla theme.

Once you select a CMS system that you need the theme for the Artister software compiles a randomly generated theme for you to get you started. From this point it is easy to make minor changes to fit your taste and if needed you can completely change the output as you get more comfortable using the software.

You can find a complete guide in using this software by downloading the user manual here.
