Ah, I see. No problem. The template site you mentioned certainly has a wide selection of templates. Not sure what your goals are as far as this site. Certainly there seems to be a big market out there for templates (at least there certainly are a lot of vendors).

The English on the site definitely needs some work (About us page), but overall the site looks fine. I'm not advocating you buy it, mind you -- I'm making no recommendation at all. But this looks a lot like other template stores you can find on the net.

You should consider talking to member TemplateLibrary.

the problem with templates is they aren't individual. Plus, they won't say exactly what you want to say about your website. If its for an personal site, or a very small business, fair enough. However, if you intend on making a medium - large business, you'll need an individual webdesign. Also, be very careful to read the rules for the use of templates after purchase. I've found a couple of sites that say you can't use the graphics they supply.... (please enlighten me to the point of using their templates?).

Finally, there are many free websites suitable for small businesses or individuals websites. Google for them!

What I like to do with templates is use them to get my creative juices flowing since I am not that creative. I take bits and pieces of other peoples ideas and craft it into my own. This also saves me tons of money.
