The best way to start off the process is to install the Joomla version 2.5 on your local system with xampp/wamp .

After installation, you can now play around with it and see the differences between this and Version 1.5.

You can study the templates that comes with it and see the very minor difference between the template of 1.5 and 2.5 (The template details xml file).

For a designer, what you gather from the templates that come shipped with joomla will kick start things from you. If you want to advance to learning how to create components and modules, just do a search with those as your keywords and am certain you will have links.

thanx bro. The thing is, av nvr had a first hand experience of 1.5 -meaning av nvr used 1.5 before, am starting with 2.5. This is because all the 1.5 packages I got nvr installed well, they all have errors. I don't know why, maybe it's the version of xampp am using. But 2.5 installs without any hitch

Haba! You are pissing me off unnecessarily o! OP says he doesn't know squat about joomla and you are advising him to learn J2.5 on a wamp/xamp server? Do you realize how technical you have gone in that sentence alone?

OP:
This isn't like a baby that has to start with milk before eating meat. To be frank, you should be very happy that you have J2.5. My first joomla site was done in 2007...J1.5, I think. Last year, I did my first joomla site in a long time and they had upgraded to 2.5. Man! you have it made, trust me

Haha, pele o, lol, but he has done some installation on wamp before from his statements.
