Hi everyone!

I have a question that might sounds a little bit stupid, but maybe you, “All Mighty Authors From Theme Forest” can help me ;)

I have a PSD template that have sold well on the last 3 monts, and many people asked me to convert it to HTML or Wordpress. So I’ve found someone that will convert it for me to sell it here as an HTML Template.

My question is: do I have to include the PSD files on the HTML Template? If I do that, do I have to remove the PSD template from my portfolio, since I’m selling it with the HTML template? Or should I continue to sell the PSD template separately from the HTML version?

Could you please guys guide me on what is the best practice on this kind of situation, to make buyers happy?

If it is not a subject to be talked on forums, please let me know and I’ll contact support.

Thanks!

:)

Hey davidsife,

I would recommend including the PSD into the download package for HTML version. It is very useful for all buyers (if they want to change graphics etc). Im pretty sure that you it might also sell a bit better if you include the psd.

As for the separate PSD file, you are allowed to keep it in PSD category. Many authors here on TF do it the same way. It is also good for you buyer – he can decide whether he needs only design or coded version, and pay only for what he really needs.

Good luck!
