Adding some Christmas cheer to your website not only puts people in a festive mood, but it shows that you care about your website and therefore care about your customers.

If going completely ‘Christmassy’ with your website is a little too much for you, then maybe just putting up the odd stocking will do. In which case a Christmas Iconset may be just the ticket.

If you want to give your website visitors a scare you may be interested in one of our Halloween Website Templates.



Get in there early and get your website or weblog ready for Halloween, your visitors will love it.

Get only the graphic design source files without having to download or pay for all the extras such as html files, Flash files etc.

As before the galleries offer an easy to use online editor allowing you to manage the contents of the galleries and albums and add images to them and all text on the website are edited from a .TXT file making them easy to use. The new version includes updates and improvements are to the front-end and the back-end administration panel. In particular the front-end updates include XML support, navigation buttons in the gallery (”Previous photo” and “Next Photo” buttons) and the ability to create as many categories as necessary.

In the admin panel you no longer have to use “htaccess” to secure the administration panel as there is now an integrated “login” feature. Also included are image editing tools (Crop, Flip, Rotate and Resize) all within the easy to use online administration panel. And with the new “Fonts loader” component many more characters and fonts encodings will be supported.

As always there is a large selection of templates available, all at great prices. Now you have the perfect staring point for a modern, CSS driven website.

The bargain website templates are available now for purchase at great prices. Grab them while you can.

The real work behind the scenes is carried out by software designed to provide the functionality required from a dating website. Building such a site would be prohibitively expensive for many people, so I have now added the ability to purchase an off the shelf dating website called PG Dating. There are many advantages other than cost for using a tried and tested package such as this and it saves you having to ‘re-invent the wheel’. The really nice thing about this particular package is that the developer will integrate it with any of the dating website templates, to provide a fully functional and aesthetically pleasing site.

To the lay person Web 2.0 seems to be synonymous with a particular design style. This Web 2.0 design style is characterised by fresh, clean looking websites with large, easy to read typefaces, lots of whitespace and usually some subtle gradient backgrounds and/or reflected graphics. I really like this design approach and it can be used on any website to give it that Web 2.0 feeling, even if the content and functionality of the site doesn’t really make it a Web 2.0 site.

Pixelwave Web Design now has a growing number of Web 2.0 style design templates on offer through its Website Template shop. These templates can be used to give your new website that Web 2.0 feeling, or would be ideal to revamp an existing jaded website. A couple of examples are shown below.

Of course Web 2.0 isn’t just about the look and feel of the site. A true Web 2.0 website is standards compliant, conforms to accessibility guidelines, is a pleasure to use. They also offer certain levels of functionality not found in earlier websites. Often Web 2.0 websites are driven by user generated content, often they allow the end user to customise the content to their own particular preferences and often they include applications that allow sharing of information rather than simply presenting information to the user.

However, even if your website isn’t a true Web 2.0 site, the clean fresh, easy to use design style is valid in its own right and often such a design style will aid readability and usability of your website as well as giving it that modern Web 2.0 look.
