[themes] Has anyone ported Nature Jars from Joomla?

[Chi]

I would say what you are looking for is a background image, you would then
slice and use the sides, middle column, and top, where its exposed behind
the header and Main page, or alternatively you can use a general background
image, and position the regions of the site on it,  then add images to the
background, and slice from there. You can use a simple theme like this:
https://drupal.org/project/business and adjust the components around it to
look just like that.
The background you reference just consists of this:
http://joomla16.siteground.com/templates/siteground-j16-23/images/wrapper.png
and this:
http://joomla16.siteground.com/templates/siteground-j16-23/images/headerimg.jpg

Which could have been complete image, cut apart, then rejoined to look
continuous around the website regions
