Custom Keynote Theme Design - Any Warriors Do 'Em?

Hey All,

So I made the move to a Mac many months ago, but I've noticed that many of the Keynote themes for sale on the web are pretty lame / bland / old.

Does anyone know of any warriors, or websites, that do custom keynote designs?

I know Andy Jenkins gets his video background custom designed by one of the designers that also worked on Kajabi...does anyone know of a service that does such a thing for mass public?

Or will I just have to use the same templates that millions of other users use / see daily? :'( (lol)

    Dexx I went through this myself as well in an effort to customize my video productions. If you aren't confident about your own graphic skills then post a job for a graphic artist - but there is no need to specify it is for Keynote. That will just limit your responses. Just say you want a video background and give measurements, such as 1280x720. Such productions are rather easy for designers as I am sure you realize.

    When you get the designs complete, you can then use them to create your theme in Keynote (search the Keynote help documents). That way, you can simply choose them whenever you are creating a new document or video. If you still have your PC, then you can do the same in Office, with the same designs you pay for.

    On the other hand, if you are talented (or) motivated enough, or want to emulate a background you have seen before, then the easiest way is to buy an iStock (or other) image and add some accents, logos, shading, or other layered graphics to it. This is rather much what I do now and can mock up a background in 15-20 minutes that complements my branding - with little skill I might add as evidenced by myself!

    For examples of these backgrounds you can check my ComboCasting.com link in sig for a variety of them I created.
