I think I've tested all Joomla framework, imo T3 is the best but not the easiest. You may also try vertex framework, lots of options and easy to set up. Also warp 6 is fine, warp 7 if I'm not wrong it's not free but has lots of issues with ie8.
Try them all and go for the one that best feet your needs

Thanks Paul. Unable to rep.

Not a problem I forgot how cool Gantry framework was and it looks like they added some very nice things for Joomla 3... I'm going to have to install it on a test site

Main issue is that I am looking for is good free themes and more / custom module positions. I hope Gantry has them.

@ Radu, Vertex is free ? I have downloaded it. They say try for free.

If not asking too much, is it possible to get a video on how to make a website using Gantry Framework ? Yes, I can search, but I won't know which is good for beginners.

Great. Will give it a try. Thanks Paul

Vertex and also gantry are free

 

[meetdilip]

Thanks for the update. Which one do you recommend ? ie, for a beginner.

 

[radu81]

For a beginner I won't recommend T3, but gantry or vertex. Both have lots of options to customize, but maybe gantry is more popular and user friendly. Gantry support is also good. Try them both and choose which you think is easier for your needs
P. S if you're playing with Joomla try kunena for a forum and k2 for a blog. All free
