    Recommend a template to me...

    Posted 12 years 8 months ago
    • I have a client who is looking for a very 'victorian elegance' themed website. It is for a fashion design website - so lots of pics of previous designs are to be incorporated. Not necessarily steampunk feeling, but more just that old world beauty and style (though steampunk is not out of the question, just stating it isn't necessary).

      That said, what template(s) would you recommend for me to look at as a basis of this design? Obviously anything I do will require some customization, but... the less work there is required, the better!

    • Yes, I scrolled through half a dozen template, in addition to contemplating another several templates I have used in the past. I didn't see anything I particularly liked for this project, which is why I posted here... to get input from others.

    • ...so no recommendations?

      I suppose I can just go looking at other template sites...

    • I really don't understand what you expect from us? :oops: To choose a template for you? You can see all of our templates in the action on our demo site. Each template can be completely changed through adjustments and customizations so each template can be suitable for your requirements. It just takes time and knowledge to do something like that 8)

    • Igor, I am asking for opinions, advice, suggestions, and personal preferences. I thought this was a forum for the exchange of ideas... I'm not asking for customization, and I know what I think on seeing various template demos, but I was asking what others think.

      In other words, if you had a client who came to you with the request I posted, what would be your first choice as a base before modifying it? Or perhaps you'd feel something would work without any modifications...

      The reason I posted is simply because I looked through many of the demos, and used my memory for the dozen or so RT templates I have used in the past, and I didn't feel any were suited to the request - however often times I will talk to others and get an outside opinion...which can help me see something in a new light. There may be a perfect template here on RT for this site, which I am overlooking because I have used it in another way and don't remember its alternate look/feel.

      See what I am asking now? Not for others to do my work for me, but just for your insight.



      And CMYK, either you're trying to being sarcastically funny, or you are being an idiotic ass - exactly which of those is hard to tell without tone, body language, etc. Either way... no, I'm not asking for anything which would justify any kind of payment. I am simply trying to, as I stated above, get creative input.

      [edit] Or, possibly, there may be a language barrier type of issue here and you're offering to customize a template, not 'suggest' one. If that is the case, thank you for the offer, but no - I am not looking for that.

    • @karossii - you are correct, it was a poor attempt at sarcasm.

      To be serious and offer the creative input you requested, without knowing/seeing 'what' type of look you are going for and without seeing the design you've come up with for them, it's hard to offer any suggestions.

      Based on the little information you've given so far, I wouldn't say any of the templates are suitable unless some serious customization is done on them. And which one you start with doesn't make a lot of difference because you'll be hacking them around so much.

      This is one of those instances we'd do something totally custom and bespoke.
