Welcome to TWF! It hink this looks pretty good. You've done a great job of explaining what the site is up front. I know right away what this is and what I can do here. The layout is generally quite busy but it does provide a lot of ways to get the user to engage with the site which is good. The left column could use some work. The right side has a lot more weight to it so it makes the site look very unbalanced. Maybe even a grey background colour there and some more refinement of the text would help there (proper lists perhaps, and not centered). I think you could get rid of some of the stuff at the bottom - especially the Latest Content Updates. That could be replaced by a "Newest Templates" section.
Navigating around - I had problems viewing one of the template previews because it opened in a pop-up and my blocker caught it, so I had to click an extra time to get it to open. Then I wanted to get back to the home page by attempting to click on the logo - it didn't work. Definitely make sure the logo is a link back to the home page.
The view all templates page is too wide for my browser window but I don't midn that too much in this case. It's more of a problem becuase it changes the layout from the other pages. Dividing these into some sort of categories would probably be very helpful for the user.
I am very impressed with the quality of templates here. I would definitely refer people here. I'm also impressed with the level of professionalism throughout. If I was a customer I wouldn't hesitate to buy from you.

Megan,
we did change preview open method. Now we do not open it in popup using javascript and replaced with direct link.
I agree that the templates are very well put together. I also agree that putting the templates into categories would make it easier for a user to browse through them.
When I click the link for 145-153 I get 1 template.
Actually the website look good to the eye, but you need to do something about the graphic icons on the top left side; representing "home, custom template, contact us and support". They may be difficult for users to know what they represent.
Also, at the bottom of the home page where you wrote, "Dear Members, we have added 4 new categoeies that contain 95 clipart and mascots., "CATEGOEIES should be CATEGORIES".
Thank you.

Welcome to TWF! I hope you get quite comfortable here.
When first viewing your site, my eyes dart around crazily trying to find the main piece to focus on, but there isn't much. It is very packed on the front page, which can be deterring to some, but it's not too bad.
I like the use of the animated characters on the front page. It's very fun and shows off your talents. Your templates are very, very good quality, so I don't think you'll have much of a problem selling your templates, just as soon as you actually get people to your website.
Good luck.

First thing i have to say is that the front page has some serious graphics going on. That is good but bad at the same time, our friends on dial up might be slowed way down, and just hit that back button. This site is easy to navigate and to use, i am not confused on what the actual purpose of this site is. The design is very professional looking as well.
Good luck to you!
HAHA,
Working on some sites that are of better quality!
