Designing Templates for Websites

How many sites do you know that actually offers a FREE website design template that is very unique and has a very good design? Quite few. Nevertheless, templatextreme.com is in fact offering this kind of service. The site put up a page for the webmaster resources that the users find very useful if ever she/he wants to build a website of its own. The mere fact of this act, captures my criterion for a helpful website. Besides from the accuracy of the site that you can look through its Contact Us page, it is really impressive in regards with its idea of designing a templates for the users who needs one. This site specialize the designing in different layouts, users can choose from whatever they desire. All the design here have style, impact and quality, that will surely catch everyone's attention.

Look and Feel

When I looked into this site the thing that never fails to catch my eyes is the big letter X of the header. I thought that the creator must be into extreme and cool stuff or something. Because for me, that letter stands in a huge context like being adventurous and daring. In fact some people grew up with this term and use in a colloquial language when someone is into intense doing.

Anyhow I reckon that the name of the site is sort of a little bit odd as when you look through the whole layout of the page. The color usage is not that “extreme” as suppose to be. It is too slow because it is dull and simple. The only color that makes the site look lively is the yellow vertical line on the left page, other than that the whole thing is white and gray. However I must give credits to the consistency of the table, it is allot in a coherent position and it looks good. The CSS design is quite simple and elegant with the uses of drop-down box, I can easily search the categories and templates. The use of the thumbnails to display the sample of the site's designs is not unique but it is practical and convenient. All the information about each theme is written below the image and you can preview it in a large view, when you click.

Navigation

Menus are located in the top most of the page in a compress mode, which you can easily navigate and explore. All the information about the site's designs are listed in a basically readable layout. I downloaded a free scheme which I'm using right now, by the way. I can say that it is fast and very easy to use. As I continuously explore this site I eventually realize why the webmaster used the big X as the prominent letter in his/her site. Why, you ask? It is simply because all the design templates that I look at is rather tremendous and “eXtremely” striking within its own kind. Also the sub-menus is alloted orderly below the menus, that you can effortless selects different design from wordpress, HTML/CSS and flash.

Content

In this site, even though there is a lot of HTML/CSS and Flash implementation, surprisingly the website pages and samples are quick to load. There is no denial that this site is being well-visited by its costumer because there is no hassle like pop-ups and banners that can stand as a distraction rather annoys the users. The content is precise and informative, all the queries that you might ask are answered in an accurate manner. From the prices of the templates and its type are catalogue under the thumbnails. Another good part is the idea of putting the number of times a design is downloaded. With this the users can tell how popular the designs are. On the other hand it can also forewarn the End-users on how unique the design that they are eying on.

If you look at this site templatextreme.com foremost you can easily forget about it in just a minute because of the ordinary appeal from its layout. However if you stay and explore through this site you will be amazed by the site's products.

Over-All evaluation

Although I can say that this site is an Art in progress, templatextreme.com packs quite a punch for a starter site. This site is well created and executed by the webmaster and his/her teams. Above all, they offer FREE but very well designed templates.
