Site Template Recommendations

Post by solex16 »

Hi all PHPers
Can anyone recommend a good place to pick up templates for websites?
Nothing too fancy, just clean and simple designs?

Thanks in advance

Thanks d11
Does smarty have a choice of pre-loaded templates or do designers have to create them all from scratch?

Designers have to make them from scratch...

However, if you're talking about preloaded templates, then:

One: you need to specify to us what you're exactly preloading it on, or

Two: You want a basic design, and then integrate your PHP app into it, in that case Smarty is a good choice, but it's not everything (you still need to find the layout)
