go and look at the code you see. you can no longer see what the code used by the author looks like, that is why the name has changed, what you see is totally different than before. it is no longer a live preview, it is a page display.

are there any cheaper alternatives to Photoshop? I don’t have PS and the price tag seems quite prohibitive at this time. Is GIMP a usable alternative? Can you use it to slice up PSDs as you do in PS? or are there any other tools you can use to slice up PSDs? I think this is the function I would most like to be able to accomplish if I buy PSDs.

perhaps some tutorials on using alternative software to accomplish some of the things you do with PS would be nice, not all of us have the latest bells and whistles to play with.

are the newer templates being added on a regular basis to TF negatively affecting sales of the earlier templates?

I would think that this might be the case, with some exceptions though.

looks good so far

surprised this is popping up again.

still looking for positive feedback from this query, not sure why designers would not want their web sites featured using the purchased templates?

and I don’t think it is just a matter of privacy, the authors of web sites for sale here are plying their wares, their web design expertise and want me to believe that they are the answer to my desire to find a web designer for my project if I wanted one.

so what gives? does not anyone here have an example of where their template has been purchased and used in a web site? is it not legitimate for you, as the author of the web template/PSD, to advertise where your work is being featured?

I am reaaly surprised that after all of template sales that at least some examples of how they have been used has not been adverised.

I use Irfanview to change the size of graphics,

why don’t you ask them and if they permit publish their web sites addresses, would love to see how the themes are being used

I assume that if they get excellent themes an any subject, they will publish them on this site. I doubt very much that they restrict themes. It is probably more a matter of what gets submitted for approval. If a theme for some of those wanted by others on this site are never submitted, they cannt be evaluated and perhaps approved. Lets see a wider range of themes, I look forward to them

I like this site too BUT I don’t like sites like this where you need to scroll down to see any content. When you click on Journal for instance you don’t see anything until you scroll down, ugh. Sites looks great but…

I view at 1024×768 and sometimes it is amazing how little content you can actually see on one screen. When too much of my screen is taken up with browser borders, page navigation, etc then I really don’t like it. Sites like noupe.com and smashingmagazine.com are great sites but the content could be a whole lot viewer friendly in my opinion.
