    Please review our site: http://www.templatebasics.com

    We work hard to provide webmasters with the highest quality web site templates from the best designers around the world.

    We realize that they’re hundreds of templates sites on the internet, but we take template sites to a whole new level!

    What makes us different?
    - Searchable template database. (a website template search engine)
    - Easy to find templates with similar styles and features.
    - Choose to list templates by color, style, keyword, category, template key features.
    - Updated by humans not automated like most template sites.
    - Webmaster submission are not allowed. We will feature your content but we’re really picky on how its indexed so if your interested in displaying your work on the site just use the contact form and we will get back to you.
    - UPDATED OFTEN! Many template sites were built and forgot about but not us! We will update at least once a week minimum.

    What do you think about our approach to providing templates to webmasters? What do you suggest to improve overall user friendliness? We want to hear all the good or bad you have to say about it!

    If the website is the link in your sig "Free CSS Templates"; looks excellent. I do suggest one thing however, do get rid of all the popups and use adsense, TLA, or similar for advertisement means.
    Best Regards.

    We do use adsense and other sponsor ads. The popups are there for topsite promotion only I really dont like popups but if it gets you thousands of extra quality visitors each month its a necessary evil. Once the traffic gets built up I will surely remove the popup because I don't make money directly from the popup.

    I for one hate popups. Mosts users use popup blockers.

    Try taking away the popups asap.

    I like the design and it didn't load any popup for me (if it did I would hate it and not return). I'm quite happy with it and am impressed with it but think a nice logo and stylish header would do wonders. Keep up the good work, you're doing well.

    Just taking a quick glance, you need a logo, for a template website dont have a great logo. I'm also not liking the navbar its to big and blue for me. I also thing its to plain =\

    Good luck.
