I am currently redesigning one of my sites which offers free web templates. My aim is to build a high quality source of free web templates that meet the following standards:
Completely CSS
One table is allows as a wrapper/frame.
Search Engine Friendly
Must be under 50KB.
Must work the same in Mozilla, Opera, IE and Netscape.
Must provide layered Paintshop or PhotoShop template.
If you have designed any templates that meet the above description, please let me know and I will add them to my new directory with full credit to you and/or your company website.
I will create another 20 versions of your template as well. To do this, I need all the layers in tact, so that I can colorise parts of the template. I am currently having a stylesheet manager built, which will allow all template batches to be mixed and matched into various color combinations. So, your template will be made available in 20 colors, which means there will be around 80 combinations of themes your template will be transformed to.
The templates I have on my site were made quite a while ago. Since I made them, my design skills and standards have improved greatly. I intend on adding dozens of totally free web templates to my site. I am not looking for profit at this time. I am only looking to increase awareness for my site. Anyone that submit's at least one free template will have the opportunity to add paid templates to the up and coming premium templates section.
I will also have a CMS template section, for various CMS designs and an email template section.
The template's will be marketed as search engine friendly and I feel that the site will soon become quite popular.
Please let me know if you're interested.
Note The more layers the graphic template has, the more I'll be able to do with it. While making the template, please keep in mind that each layer may be colorised later. If you have things like dropshadows without a layer, the design will look very tacky if I colorise it.
Another Note I will be extremely fussy about the templates that are placed on my site. I will not allow anyone to submit premium templates for a profit unless they have first submitted at least one free template, which will create the awareness required to successfully promote premium templates. The template must also be exclusively yours. ie: Made by you or your company.
