September 8th, 2008 in News, Templates

Here we are with a new portion of you know what :-)
Today we’ve brought you the fresh four - all so beautiful and so uncommon! Enjoy.

Oiltrade Company template

oiltrade

This one is perfect in case you are one of those guys who deliver oil and gas for our “thirsty” vehicles. Oil trading companies need websites even more than most other businesses do - Internet communication is one of the easiest ways of promoting social responsibility campaigns which are in turn essential for oil traders. This design can be a great first step in the Oil-2-Web campaign.

Flight School template

flight school

Flight school is also a school and needs as much promotional exposure as possible in order to attract maximum potential attendees. Besides the potential audience of schools like these - I mean the age group and the income rate - is in fact a part of the most active Internet users segment. That is why it is absolutely essential for a flight school - or any other kind of school - to be presented on the Internet. This beautiful design will definitely be useful in this case.

Roofing Company template

Roofing Company

There are tons of roofing companies out there, right? Then why in the world would they need to produce custom designs for their websites? This beautiful template design will greatly simplify it all for the roofing companies owners - everything is easy to customize and the website will be ready to go within minutes!

Security Company template

Security Company

Security is one of the essential needs for everyone of us. Some people have to hire the professionals for this in order to feel maximum confidence. It is obvious that companies like that have to look confident and to raise nothing but unquestionable trust. This design does just that - tons of pure trust and confidence.

That’s it for now - but as always new unique and rare designs are coming up real soon. Please be sure to check back in several days to find them!

Jaguar is Back!

August 20th, 2008 in News, Templates

I guess when he left he knew that he’ll be back. It could even be that he gave us his photo with Photoshopped Terminator-style red eye and a bottom line saying “I’ll be back” :)

But if to be serious it’s a wonderful thing that we will have a chance to recall those days when Jaguar used to work with us. Back then TemplateMonster was a young project and Jaguar’s designs were one of the most popular ones here. After he left the rest of the designs have gradually improved and today as TemplateMonster is world’s #1 player in web design we thought it would be great to find our old friend and check out how he’s doing. It appeared to be that he was doing great and we thought of combining two of our separate prosperities :)

The result is a special selection of Jag’s designs that he has made especially for this special event at TemplateMonster, the templates based on these designs are available at a Jaguar’s special event page. All of them are made with a special warm nostalgic attitude - I guess you will feel that once you see them. So hurry up to the Jaguar’s special section and feel the magic yourself.

Familiar with Template Monster First Customer Survey?

August 4th, 2008 in News

Not long ago it appeared to be that the First Customer Survey at TemplateMonster was ongoing in spite of the fact that we have stopped it. That is why some of you may have received the invitation emails with the survey links that were inactive. We apologize for these facts and the inconveniences they might have caused. As always, we are working on it and the problem will soon be fixed.

We found out about these facts from several emails that our customers have sent to us. By the way, one of the emails about that has attracted our special interest. In case you’re interested - here’s the quote:

“At the same time I purchased a TemplateMonster.com, I also purchased two templates from your competition - ************.net* [ sorry, my client chose the templates ]. The purchase occurred around 4:25pm EST on Friday, 20 June. I received a payment confirmation at 4:30pm - as of this writing [5:15pm EST, Sunday, 22 June] I STILL have not received the files!!!!!!!!!!! - after two full days and 7 emails of pleading, I’ve not received a single response yet!!! My deadline for three concepts was Monday morning – I will now have to make an excuse to my longtime, trusted client… how embarrassing, huh? – I am livid beyond comprehension. Talk about stress entering Monday morning with no files and no response from ************.net* !!!!!!

It is a horrendous experience like this that underscores the wonderful ease of purchase, secure delivery of files and customer service follow-up and most importantly, PROFESSIONALISM that you and your site demonstrate. Even though the internet is stunningly littered with countless web templates sites, they obviously are not created equal.

Keep doing what you are doing, baby, and keep up the good work, designs and customer service – rest assured, in doing so you’re world’s ahead of your competition.”

Well, unfortunately things like this happen - no business is perfect. And unfortunately this kind of customer service of our competitors is not something that we may fix - otherwise we definitely would have fixed it.

By the way, it may sound strange but this little survey link bug has appeared right before the launch of a new First Customer Survey at Template Monster. Funny coincidence, isn’t it? Soon we will start a new customer survey, also meant for the customers that have made their first purchase at TemplateMonster. All of the survey links that will be delivered then will be active, that’s for sure :)

Please check back with the fresh blog entries in order to be informed of the new First Customer Survey.

The First PaperVision 3D Flash Template Added Today!

July 11th, 2008 in News, PaperVision 3D

Congratulations, Flash fans and everyone who just loves spectacular design and functionality solutions! This is indeed something to congratulate you on as now we’re stepping into the new era of Flash.

This new era starts with our launching the new generation of Flash templates - based on ActionScript3 and made with the PaperVision 3D engine. Looks tremendously impressive, without a doubt - take a look at the first one.

Besides the fact that it looks very impressive due to the 3D interface the ActionScript3 also provides a set of additional functional features. For example you may add as many subpages to your Flash site as you wish - this is impossible with all the previous Flash templates. You may interlink all of these subpages with each other by using the events (pressing the button, text link, image etc.) without having to use Flash IDE - you can do that simply using XML file. The other nice thing about these templates is that all of the sounds there are stored as .mp3 files - very convenient, I’m sure you understand that.

Today it is only the first template made with ActionScript3 and PaperVision 3D in our collection. But you know us - soon there will be tons of these available at TemplateMonster. It’s only a matter of time.
