    I feel so lame. I've been using themes and scripts to design my websites and I just found out you can use wordpress for regular sites not just blogs.

    Some one online told me I could add this template in wordpress is this true? I haven't finished the site yet and I want to know if this is possible before I continue.

    Before I finish the site I'd like some feedback on this issue.

    Does anyone have a site that has a regular template integrated into a wordpress theme if so please post the site for an example.
    Thanks for helping.

    hehe yeah. There are plugins to turn Wordpress into online stores. It's a very expandable software.

    Well yes wordpress is not just used for blogs anymore. With a variety of plugins you can actually turn it into a CMS. One of my clients wanted me to do a article directory-cum-social networking site out of wordpress and also a shopping portal integrated to it :D

    So you see ONE wordpress site can handle ALL this aloneyou can ! Regarding the template that you have shown, there are certainly better themes already available in wordpress. Check this site: www.xtreemhost.com

    But you cannot use plain templates in wordpress. You NEED to convert them to relevant wordpress themes for sure. However if you seach around a bit you are sure to find out the same template/theme or much closer to it! :)
