Administrators Nathan Posted February 21, 2012 Administrators Share Posted February 21, 2012 ThemeForest is one of the best sites I've found for templates on almost any CMS. Some of the bigger CMS: Wordpress OSCommerce Magento Joomla Drupal ExpressionEngine I've purchased quite a few themes from them. They have some of the most unique and awesome designs. Check them out.

bryce12 Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Yeah they offer some great themes. I haven't bought anything from them but will surely do that in case I am looking for a new theme. I use themes from Wordpress site or newwpthemes.com for my sites since most of my sites are simple content sites that do not feature any complex functionality.

fakesky Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 I bought some Woo Themes, my favourites indeed great site, +1 recommending Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shole Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Yeah they are the best designers for worldpress themes ever. Their themes are high quality and unique and they offer it for a good price. I am not a user of their themes because I don't run any of those scripts stated above but if I ever do I am sure I will get my theme from them. I mean they are really the best on the web, I don't know any other company that can compete with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dojo Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 As a site admin I don't use pre-made templates. They are not unique and not having an original design is unprofessional in my opinion. If I wouldn't be able to do my own designs, I'd hire a designer to create a unique layout for my sites. As a freelancer, I don't use them since I find the 30% commission to be HUGE. I don't like paying almost 9% at elance and I'm not selling my work there for 35 bucks legalize and __Darknite 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrnothersan Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I've used ThemeForest a few times, and although I've found their support slow, it's a great website to use and I'll probably use them again in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crumblepie Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 I've actually gotten pretty good support from the developers for some of the themes I purchased there. I've never felt the need to contact Envato support though, is that what you all were referring to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Nathan Posted March 14, 2012 Author Administrators Share Posted March 14, 2012 No I meant from the developers, the developers of the themes I have bought and needed help with just must not have been great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MustangV10 Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 I've purchased a hosting template from them once, quite recently priced. Their themes are overused though, which is expected since they're good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Nathan Posted March 17, 2012 Author Administrators Share Posted March 17, 2012 Overused? They have thousands of themes. You must have picked one of the most popular ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewan Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 I've been to the site numerous times, never actually bought anything from them though. Same as me. They do have some really nice templates that I might buy in the future though. I might even consider selling themes on there if I get good enough at web design.

Or if you don't want to start off with a blank canvas then templates are a good choice. However over reliance on templates has negatives as enumerated by dojo.

dagscot Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Some days, I spend hours on themeforest. It's premium Wordpress themes that I look for. I've bought several in the past year and I'd recommend them for their support alone. Now I'm back in the New Year, in search of a responsive theme for a new Wordpress website that I'm setting up. Besides, it's fun messing around with the live previews of the themes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Themeforest is truly one of the best resources for anyone looking for a professional theme that ill make your site look professional, and clean. I've had an account with them 6 years now and I do not have a single complaint. It's a great source, not to mention code canyon, photo dune, and a few other sister site they manage!

KellyKellz Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I never really been into templates because I like to create things from scratch but I'm really interested in finding out what Theme Forest has to offer. I'm open minded so I'm down for trying new things so this could be something I could get into and could potentially make my designing process much easier.
