I can make templates, and I have sold a few in the past. But I prefer to sell non-customized templates only to people who I know are capable of modifying them. I have only bought a template once, and that I purchased because it had a header that I loved on it. Even though I had html skills, it was a challenge for me to assemble. I know it is tempting to be able to purchase templates at a steep discount over the cost of custom listings, and it seems like it ought to be a simple thing to install them. Unfortunately, the most impressive-looking templates can be impressively complex in structure.
I don’t have time to spend hours troubleshooting an installation for a flirt when for a reasonable cost I could have coded it up myself and even installed it for her. All my templates and complete listings I have sold or will sell have been pre-tested on a listing I keep just for that purpose. I may set aside a “tech support” line for calls at a reasonable cost (.99) if there is demand, but I’ve had too many 2 hour IM sessions when I was obligated to be somewhere else doing something else at the time…
And then there was the flirt who sent me 50 emails in a 36 hour period. There’s a story I could write…
I may make listing templates available for customization in the future, in which case I would do the coding for you. Purchasing would be a two-step procedure. You click a button to receive the images that you need to upload. You send me an email with these urls, the urls of any photos you want used, and any payment mail button codes and descriptions of what is for sale. If your photos need editing, that will add a step or two and some cost to the process. If you want lots of custom buttons, that also will cost more.
As this is currently in the planning stage, your comments are appreciated.
