On your templates, they are okay even though none of them personally appealed to me, some are a bit 'loud' maybe keep the layout but work on the actually design and color scheme. I like your homepage the background banner, layout is nice. But your free backgounds buttons and dividers........they are well not very appealing:( sorry. The backgounds would make text very hard to read. If you are offering web design I would not offer free background and things. But instead design a few 'dummy' pages to let potential customes see what you can do.
I also have free graphics, take a peek:

I also have other free graphics page if you'd like to check them out, but this is the best one! If you have to wait it;s the server my file sizes are really small most of the backgrounds are 4 KB.
I'm going back to check the size of your templates, one of the large buttons took a while to load might be that your files size is big.

Yeah the top button on your 'designer' template alone is a whopping 23 KB, you definatly need to reduce the size.

Ken, try to not clutter up the forums by multiple posts for the same site.
I had an extremely weird effect as you site was loading. The nav bar seemed to split into two for a short period?
I would center the main right table.

Looks fine, all except for the date at top of nav bar as I've pointed out before. It takes away from the professional appearance of the nav bar.

Also your tiled backgrounds are beveled like buttons so they'll come out looking very strange and again will be impossible to put text on. Also on your own page, for your graphical nav menu your should put descriptive alt.text ie. home/templates etc. rather than the image name.
