Every few months the Joomla project announces significant updates. Recently they have released Joomla 3.0, but we can still hear some buzz about Joomla 2.5. The point is that Joomla 3.0 is a standard-term release that is mainly aimed at those who are continually looking for new features in the Joomla CMS, and Joomla 2.5 is a Long Term Support release that will be supported for at least a year and a half. In other words, if your site is built on Joomla 2.5 and you’re happy with it, then there is no need for you to update your site to Joomla 3.0, Joomla 3.0.1 and the like.
By the way, as Joomla 3.0 is available for quite a short time, there are not a lot templates and extensions that would fit it. So, a big choice of Joomla 2.5 templates is another reason for you to stick to Joomla 2.5.
Why do you think we know about a wide range of templates for Joomla 2.5? That’s because we’ve visited many websites offering such templates for corporate sites, personal blogs, portfolio sites, travel related sites, music sites, etc, and we’re going to list the best of them here. Moreover, we’ll list free Joomla 2.5 templates only. So in order to use these templates you will not have to spend your time or money.
Now, why don’t you look through the screenshots below and decide if any of these templates is what you need to make your Joomla site shine?
Please keep in mind, even if the Joomla templates on the list are free to download, you should read the terms before you use any of them. More than likely you’ll be asked to keep footer links. That’s how you will thank designers for creating freebies.
