[thelist] Template Monster [WAS: A Beginner FreelanceQuestion]

[Seth Thomas Rasmussen]

Heh, and a good point, I suppose. Dentist told me I need fillings this
morning, and I'm reading "No Logo"... I think I'm just a bit crabby and
confrontational. ;)

I still don't like sites like that though. Maybe I just need a better
illustration to show it, but for now I guess I'll go back to the
sidelines...

I'm a PHP developer, not a site designer. If it cuts down my design
time massively then I'll use it. But hey, if you'll design me
something as good as that for $80 I'll consider it.

Just like people install PHPBB, UBB, osCommerce, Gallery, etc onto
their sites - from my perspective I mean come on - all that pesky
*code* is done for you, now all that is left is to plug in your
variables like a good little cog. Crazy concept but why can't you code
it yourself?

(BTW I do always code it myself, it's my job, I'm just making my
point).

Best regards,

Richard Davey
