Trellian is our new free Dreamweaver template and it comes with sweet CSS navigation courtesy of CSS Menu Writer.  We wanted to showcase a few of our favorite Dreamweaver extensions, so we also generated the XHTML  page structure in CSS Sculptor.  The template is tableless and includes a multi-level CSS menu that can be easily customized in the code.

If you do your own website design, we highly recommend both CSS Sculptor and CSS Menu Writer.  It’s truly amazing how quickly you can generate standards compliant site structure and navigation.  What used to take the most time in developing a new site has been reduced to a matter of minutes so we can focus more on the eye candy and content.

You can preview the Trellian template or download it from our Dreamweaver templates page.

We just completed a new WordPress theme called ModXBlog (we don’t know why). It’s a really clean theme that has a lot of nice touches added. It’s AdSense-ready so you can immediately start making a few bucks with your blog and it has three different widget-ready sidebar areas.

It comes pre-coded for use with Breadcrumb-NavXT and Rob Marsh’s Post Plugin Library. The single post pages support Rob’s Similar Posts plugin by default, so make sure you activate that plugin when you install the blog. If you don’t, no big deal, the related posts area just won’t show up under the posts.

We’re going to build on this one in the future, with different color schemes and subject themes so check back soon for more downloads.

You can preview ModXBlog or download it here.

We just posted the first of several free AdSense-ready Dreamweaver templates. AdSensation is a simple tableless layout that includes pre-styled code for the most popular AdSense ad block sizes. The template includes a prominant 728×90 leaderboard ad at the top of the page, a 160×600 skyscraper down the left sidebar and a 250×250 square block at the top of the content section. A CSS style is included for 428×60 banners and the code can easily be modified to fit any other AdSense ad size.

The navigation is pure CSS with code that is very easy to modify. The free template includes the original sliced and optimized Adobe Fireworks file, so creating a completely custom look should only take a matter of minutes.
