I need help with creating a website with Ecommerce?

I am hoping to start my own On-line shop in January but I haven't got much of an idea how to go about creating a website with Ecommerce. I know about website hosting and domain names etc but I don't want to pay for any of this until I have a fully functioning Website! I am not going to be able to design my own site but I am thinking about getting a free template and then editing it slightly.I have Downloaded Nvu which allows you to edit a template but I am having difficulty using it! I would like to know if I can do the above and then add Ecommerce to a Css template and I also need help getting all of this without any cost if possible.I live in the UK. Any suggestions and help in simple way will be very much appreciated as I can't even edit any of the template! The template I want is downloaded is in a zip folder and I think I may need to do something extra,I don't know! Here is the link to the template site,the one I would like to use is called New Rise it's the 7th one down ,if this helps! http://www.templateworld.com/free_templates.html Thank-you in advance to any-one who may be able to give me some step by step help. Best Wishes Emma

Yes, it can be done, but it depends on your abilities, and (as you are asking this question here) it does not look very promising. If you can manage to create a site, site-wide css can be used in e-commerce plugin too, I could offer you my services for the purpose of setting up the e-commerce part, but not sure if you can afford my rates (I am in UK too and am used to contracting rates - have been doing it for over 10 years now). I can try to guide you in your search if you want...
