Templates?

[panicattack]

Would you rather use and buy templates than designing your own site?

The success of template monster and other sites that are selling templates at such a very high price for the use of the less savvy ones or those who have no time at all to design their own site. How about you? Do you use commercial templates at all then just integrate your contents? Or a customized site is much more important for you?

Personally I use dreamweaver and for that you don't realy need templates because it has the design view where you can create your own tables, add in images and really do anything that html allows you to. It also has a few snippets of code from php and the ability to make forms for you. If you want to try the demo go to adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?loc=en%5Fus&product=dreamweaver and register to get the 30 day trial.

Designing your own web page gives you the freedom of choice, offcourse, if you know how to do it!

If you know how to design your pages then I guess you should opt to do it yourself, however as what you guys have mentioned, I know of other people who doesnt even have any idea of what they are doing, and the colors really suck and the layout is just totally messed up. These kind of people should just really hire someone to create templates for them rather than adding trash on the internet.
