    I think to anyone who is in the section of 'HTML & Website Design' OSWD is as familiar as google is.

    Thanks Prateek. Will check them out. Was also looking for site templates that are Adsense + SEO optimized. Any pointers?

    Wow, a crappy little stripe fixed width website, that's broken on large font machines, trying to pimp layouts that are crappy fixed width with tons of inlined styling and little or no separation of content from presentation. Oooh, and look at the pretty redundant comments that serve no purpose since you've got formatting coming out the wazoo... ooh, and the templates themselves have formatting that makes no sense, use breaks and spacer gifs... spans for block level elements, spans for headers - pretty much ignore the concept of semantic markup...

    If you don't know what's wrong with
    
    <!-- START CONTAINER -->
    <div id="container">
    
    Code (markup):
    or

    <ul style="padding: 0; width: 100%; overflow: hidden; list-style: none; margin: 0; border: 0px; border-spacing: 0px;">
    <li style="display: inline; width: 100%; clear: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; float: left;"><span style="margin: 0; color: #000000; display: block; font-size: 12px; width: 100%; padding: 3px;">  <a style="font-size: 12px; color: #74a8f5;" href="http://www.templatesbox.com">Website Templates</a>  </span></li>
    <li style="display: inline; width: 100%; clear: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; float: left;"><span style="margin: 0; color: #000000; display: block; font-size: 12px; width: 100%; padding: 3px;">  <a style="font-size: 12px; color: #74a8f5;" href="http://www.weboptimiser.com/services/pay-per-click.html">Pay Per Click Advertising</a>  </span></li>
    <li style="display: inline; width: 100%; clear: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; float: left;"><span style="margin: 0; color: #000000; display: block; font-size: 12px; width: 100%; padding: 3px;">  <a style="font-size: 12px; color: #74a8f5;" href="http://www.boxedart.com">Website Templates</a>  </span></li>
    <li style="display: inline; width: 100%; clear: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; float: left;"><span style="margin: 0; color: #000000; display: block; font-size: 12px; width: 100%; padding: 3px;">  <a style="font-size: 12px; color: #74a8f5;" href="http://www.milliontutorials.com/">Tutorials</a>  </span></li>
    <li style="display: inline; width: 100%; clear: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; float: left;"><span style="margin: 0; color: #000000; display: block; font-size: 12px; width: 100%; padding: 3px;"><a style="font-size: 12px; color: #74a8f5;" href="http://www.jodyferry.com/">Philadelphia Web Design</a></span></li>
    </ul>
    Code (markup):
    Do the world a favor and back away from the keyboard now.

    Oh yeah, this site is just what the web needs...

    Sorry, but when I see a website that's supposed to have good layouts, that in itself is broken in 2 out of 3 browser engines on my machine - I call it as I see it.

    Besides, It's what I do. :D
