Poll: Website Templates

5 replies
I am currently developing a brand new website for the Article Directory Owners' Association. This is a not-for-profit organization of white-hat, ethical article directory owners.

For an organization website, with a board, by-laws, code of ethics, events, calendar, etc... which of the following two templates would you think would look more appropriate?

A. The Expert Vision Template

or

B. The Trial Services Template

I will obviously be tweaking the designs to relate to the eventual permanent content.

Thanks for your opinion!

AL

p.s. Why don't I just ask the members of the organization? I am looking for opinions from people who will be visiting the site as non-member visitors.

    I like them both, but for a professional body or association, I think version A (expert) is more suitable.

    Kindest regards,
    Karl.

      Thanks Karl,

      That's where the problem lies in my measly little brain. I want it to look pro (as you said) but I also need it to look current...web 2.0-ish. Ya know? Do you think A. fits the bill for that as well?

      Thanks for your thoughts! They are well recieved.

        Hi Allen,

        I think A. does fit the bill. Bear in mind that WEB2.0 glossy styles will go out of fashion, and I can't imagine you wanting to use a grunge style in future. A looks more corporate while maintaining a very subtle but pleasing 2.0 style.

        Version B. would be more suitable for a blog or a new service, in my opinion.

        Kindest regards,
        Karl.

      Both those templates are good. How do you like template-world templates?

        I love their templates! They're easy to work with. I am using another one of their free templates to redesign another site of mine.

        Problem is, since I only have less than 20 websites, and I am happy with them all, $65 a year is impractical for me.

        I guess if I were to REALLY want one of their templates, I would fork over the $65 just to get that one.
