Yes you can.  Take a look at this style guide, http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/demo/?theme=styleguide.  This shows what is controlled by what in the css.

You can alter any of the themes to match your site, some more easily than others.

You can edit the css, theme.php and template.html.
It has been a long time now since I did my little bit here, and have done no coding or any other such stuff since. I'm back to being a noob here

Yeah, I was surprised at how well I could make my gallery look the way I wanted it to be.

It is quite easy too...

It's possible to skin the interface to have it look however you would like. I'm currently in the process of skinning the interface for my install so that it looks like another part of my site. It's going pretty well, but I'm not finished.

sorry to bring to life an old thread, but is it possible to change how the table structure is as well? so if i wanted to change it from being table dependant to <div> dependant, i could?

In theory yes BUT in practice a lot of people have tried and failed...

This isbecause of the horrible way templates are handled, a lot of HTML is mixed in the code... However we are working towards the next generation templating system which will be hopefully 100% WYSIWYG based

Don't ask when it will be out :D
