Thanks everyone! I am going to the air force but I want to go to college for web development while I am there.

I see what you mean by options. I have only designed for clients and so far the only crazy thing I ever added was a calendar (thanks to codecanyon)

I understand the content management. Has anyone ever hired a wordpress coder to convert it to wordpress and document it? I bet it cost around $300 yikes might be worth it though

I have been following themeforest for quite sometime now. I have always been debating whether or not to submit. But I have a question.

How come it seems like these are now required for a template here?

1. It must have a slider – mainly 3 different types of sliders
2. It must have a portfolio
3. It must have a contact form that works
4. It must have a blog section

Does anyone else seem like this is overkill? Not all sites have sliders, or a portfolio. Why should there be a blog page for a html template? I can see if you convert it to wordpress but I would never convert it (I just don’t know wordpress that good)

Is there a major difference in sales if you are missing one of those listed?

Thanks – Freddy

We give customers a direct link to themeforest.

Most find themeforest difficult to navigate so we end up picking 5 or so to match their business and they choose one from there, but they always see themeforest and the prices and no probs there.

eg:

Template web design services

wow! talking about ripping people off

To get a website you need 3 things:

1. Domain name - your www. website address. ($55 for 2 years)
2. Hosting - Where your website files are stored. ($15 per month)
3. A website design -  That's what you get with our $770 offer.

$55 for a domain name? and 15 a month for what shared hosting? that is a rip off

I posted a thread a long time ago with no responses:

I was really thinking about it, I still think it will work. Tracking reffers, creating auto alerts, etc.

Also it may be a little evil but implanting a google anaylitics js in your template. So if they don’t remove the code you can see where its at.

So we could use whatever we want in our live previews? (not download-able) http://themeforest.net/item/tribeca-magento-theme/full_screen_preview/97866

I see a $400 Net+ Tut coming soon

I know, I’m pretty disappointed that they switched to the tumblog style. I mean, it has some good stuff, but all of the original content on the other blog really can’t be made up by promotion of themes and clientsfromhell quotes.

Yeah this blog is just quotes and promotion for themeforest.

You may implement CU3ER in an unlimited number of websites and offline presentations, as long as you are acting as the administrator and / or developer for those websites and / or presentations.

You may deploy SWFs containing CU3ER as part of hired work for a third party as long as the SWF is unique to said party and not replicated / resold / redistributed as part of a template, application or service to additional parties.

SWF containing CU3ER may not be embedded as part of a template, application, and/or web site where stated template, application, and/or web site is re-sold and/or re-distributed for independent use by third parties, without specific prior written permission.

SWFs containing CU3ER may not be embedded in a template, content management system, and / or online web service in a manner where the SWF is replicated and used as a slideshow viewer for photos contributed by more than one party.

CU3ER may not be sub-licensed or resold.

Neither the name of CU3ER nor the name of it contributor (Stefan Kovac) may be used to endorse or promote products associated with CU3ER without specific prior written permission.

You may be sued for making a thread on the forum or reply if you use the word CU3ER . I can not use Stefan Kovac’s name to promote cu3er either.

So I would suggest you don’t use it

When they switched I just don’t digg it anymore. There not articles its a big promotion. I used to learn some quick tips on jquery or learn why the number one theme is selling good.

Anyone else feel this way?
