CS-CART Themeing

I have been looking into using CS-CART as a shopping cart and started looking through the themes and it appears to me the only way to build a theme is to extend a default theme and use the theme editor and visual designer to construct themes. Is this the only way or is there a way to code custom themes without being limited to designing in the administration section?
The theme editor is intended to be used as a customization tool for the site administrator, not for the theme developer.
A theme may provide configuration for the theme editor - what colors can be changed, etc.
For the deep customization of how the site looks you can create you own theme with your own CSS code.
Check out this guide on how to create your custom theme - http://docs.cs-cart.com/4.3.x/designer_guide/theme_tutorial/index.html
Also there is an official Bootstrap 3 theme for CS-Cart which can be easily customized - https://github.com/cscart/cscart-boilerplate#the-cs-cart-boilerplate-theme
You are not limited, you have all the tools that you need to develop as you desire, the responsive theme is the base because this theme was tested enough so far and have good feedback and for somebody to start from scratch will take to much time and until you finish CS-Cart will do a big change and you will need to do another work ;)
Please check https://www.ambientlounge.ie and let me know if you find any limitations here :D
It's very easy modift cs-cart theme, cs-cart theme base on bootstrap and and smarty engine, firt you need looking for "index.tpl", "common/script.tpl", "common/style.tpl", "view/block_manager/render/grid.tpl || container.tpl || block.tpl || location.tpl. and you will understand cs-cart theme structure
You need to know smarty engine syntax here http://www.smarty.net/documentation
and cs-cart developer doc here http://docs.cs-cart.com/4.3.x/#designer-guide

Swap Images is not working in Magento 1.9

i've uploaded an image to a single child product of a simple configurable product but it's not swapping when clicking on the swatch.
can anyone help please?
Have a look at this comprehensive tutorial on how to add swatches into your product website. Link to configurable swatches
There is also a YouTube tutorial on this, which uses the built in function of Magento 1.9
Lastly, I suggest you add the magento-1.9 tag to your question, or add more details regarding your code/structure so others can pinpoint the exact issue.
There are also paid options available, which you might want to consider if it's what you want: extensionmall link for Magento
Honestly I have not used this platform before. So again do add the tag and others can assist you.

Change custome theme magento in backoffice not working

I have installed new theme in magento , to change the default theme i did this in backoffice of magento, in Design onglet of configuration tab , but whene i saved this and clear the cache , this not working so have you any idea about the matter and what wrong thing i did , please help me to slove this?
First of all you have to know the fall back model of magento.According to which magento checks for the files in your theme in "app/design/frontend/default/yourtheme"if it doesnot find it there it will look in "app/design/frontend/default/default".If it doesnot find it there than it will search in "app/design/frontend/base/default/default".
You can learn more about theming in magento in magento knowledge base.The main thing is if you want to modify your theme you can easily do it from "app/design/frontend/default/yourtheme".
Hope this will help.
I have solved this by changing the name of theme so whene magento looking for this theme can't find it so it take the value setted in backoffice
