Kendra "Easy, I've done all the work. The graphics, the design, the html (hand coded), the testing. All someone has to do is unzip, upload and they have a decorated website. While I will have spent a considerably longer amount of time depending on the design. Basically, they are getting a finished product with no work of their own." Lets expand on this.. "Easy, I've done all the work. The graphics, the design, the html (hand coded), the testing. All someone has to do is unzip, upload and they have a decorated website." You have created the shell for the content. Your set does not the site make. Yes it adds to its ambience its feel.. Much like someones free download from here may add to your finished artwork. The graphics - dito the free download from here The design - dito the free download from here The html (hand coded)- dito the free download from here The testing - dito the free download from here Your set is only 'part' of the web site as a whole. Folks add content, their touches, additions. They expand on your 'free' download. "While I will have spent a considerably longer amount of time depending on the design." I don't think you really have any concept of how much work goes into to creating some of the things that are offered for free. Particulary meshes. I can assure you often much, much longer than it takes to make a web set. Having done both I speak from experience. 'All someone has to do is unzip, upload and they have a decorated website." Now you know this is not so... As I stated earlier. They have a shell. As often seen on sites a 'template' on which to build. Your Web Set as the Download from here. Just part of the whole. As I said before. No difference. Helen :)
