You think you're a good web designer? Why should I hire you when I can just simply buy one of these...

I always thought that it might be too hard for a company to develop flash templates, but it looks like these guys have done a really nice job.

but would a company want something that 5 other competitors also buy just as easily?
Sounds very risky for a client.

In many instances you can't re-create what your client wants in a template. Templates are for inside of box thinkers. I use them when a project doesn't interest me. I use them for model sites here in L.A. and that link had nothing I would be proud to show. Plus if you stick to a niche market you can create your own templates.

with correct cms and css everything you build should be a template.
using one of these would be cool; right up until they say the exact same thing on someone elses page
*stock templates are the 9th sin

i agree when you have like 50 versions of one template that can be sold at a time whats the sense your the company is gonna look stupid and unprofessional.

For any projects I do personally, I don't believe in templates.
However there is about, lets say 1 million virtual business on the internet today. The chances of a designer spotting sister sites is very possible. But for the average consumer, its not very likely.

old boss of mine runs a sweatshop of Filipino's who crank out flash designs and programming for him. You wouldn't believe how cheap it is.

The thing is it's easy to create templates when you use FAKE CONTENT.
Trying to replicate client content to fit one of these templates is another matter alltogether, unless of course its a hosting or photographers website :-)
Also, eventhough you get a design for cheap, developing the content is not going to be free, and if you want to actually OWN on of these designs then your going to pay $2250 odd anyways.
