    hi guys, i am new here. what a great community! I have been teaching myself css mainly by looking at template code and sites I like via my developer toolbar. So there is this site http://www.benhulse.com that I am obsessing over code wise. It is such a great and simple looking design for a designer to showcase their work, but the code (seems to me) to be a beast! Basically I'm looking for a cleaner/leaner version of this layout home page and portfolio pages--maybe I'm just too new to realize that this site is quite simple, but it looks to me to be packing a lot of css heat. Anyone can recommend a free template on OpenDesigns that looks similiar, or share a few tricks as to how I may be able to acheive this design without all the bulk on the inner pages? Basically just homepage=a background image, a main image viewer centered innerpages= centered image and a clickable list down the side? Help?! Danielle danielle@doubleexposuredesign.com

    There's a design here somewhere that ressembles the Ben Hulse one... it was submitted a long time ago, and it's possibly on OSWD too. But I can't find it. It was a white box on a black background, fixed width, and it had a black tattoo-art-esque dragon in the upper left corner. Does this ring any bells to anyone? Wish I could help... if only I could find the name of that design...

    I remember one with a broken down car on it.

    thanks guys, I found a couple on here that were similiar as well... One is called "twisted" one is called "zoedesigns2" both are similar and very cool. I'm working on something now thats sort of a hybrid of several templates that I like. I'll post the code when I'm through. Also, thanks for posting your template Andreas! Danielle :bigsmile:
