Smashing Magazine - “If you haven’t taken a look at the XHTML/CSS templates that are available for free from a variety of sources, you may be surprised by the quality you can find. WordPress themes tend to get a lot of exposure and attention in the design community right now, but there is also a wide variety of high-quality XHTML/CSS templates that are free of charge…”
I’ve just release two new CSS web page templates at DesignsByDarren.com. Garden Gate is a 3 column CSS template. The two smaller columns on the right are both 160 pixels wide. This gives you plenty of room for links, advertisments and affiliate links (see demo). The main content area is 340 pixels wide by default. At this width the entire page will be visible in 800x600 browsers. You can quicky change the layout to a wider fixed width or fluid width layout. The page width is defined in the #page_wrapper DIV in the style sheet included with the package.
Technology Blog is a 2 column fixed width template with rounded corners. The page width is 750 pixels so it fits nicely in a 800x600 browser window. The left column is 470 pixels wide. Perfect for displaying 468x60 adverts. The right sidebar is 160 pixel wide so it is ideal for 160x600 tower ads (see demo). This design is easy to modify. The horizontal menu is just a styled list. Changing the header graphic is easy as well. The layered PSD is included.
Designs By Darren offers high quality CSS web design templates at affordable prices. Every template has been built from scratch using Valid XHTML and CSS. I also include the source PSD files that I used to create the template’s images. If you have a graphics editor that can open PSD files, such as Adobe Photoshop, Corel Paint Shop Pro, or The GIMP, you can easily customize the images in the template.

Mollio is a simple set of html/css templates. The aim was to create a set of page templates that use css for layout as well as some sample basic content which has also had some css applied. It’s definitely a work in progress. More sample content and layouts are planned to be added.
Our hope is to make Mollio templates and their derivatives as universal as possible. In order to help those creating derivative works of Mollio we’ve agreed to release the templates under three different licenses; Creative Commons, GPL and CPL. As a creator of a derivative work you simply need to choose the license that suits your project.
