Actually, the best way is to make you own  But I know it's really hard for beginners. About a year ago I wasn't able to make a decent web page, but I didn't use templates. I went with the ugly design, and improved it all the time. Yes, I did download templates, but only to learn more about web design. Just be patient and make what you can. You will anyhow need a lot of time to develop a good web site, so why not spend one year on web design? It's worth it, because if you perfect your skills you can charge it just like that. An average web site with average design and 10 html pages - $100. And it's done in a week. To end with, the first Google result when searching for "free templates": http://www.freewebtemplates.com/

These are some great sites. I like seeing sites that give you templates, and it's a great way of building your first site, or just finding out how to create a certain layout for your site. I don't use templates myself, and don't think I will do, but I am creating some websets to distribute on my site when I get it up and running. If you want some cool websets/templates, you should try visiting MoonGraphics. The site is by Donna Louise Maria de Leeuw, and she has some fantastic designs available as linkware or purchaseware. Just go to Layouts in the nav bar at the top under Linkware or Purchaseware, and take a look. She also has some pretty funky adoptables, banner templates and signatures, so it's definitely worth checking out. Rebecca x  PS I am in no way affiliated with the site I mentioned, so just take it as a happy little recommendation!

Another good website is http://www.clantemplates.comThey have mostly gaming templates but they also have a default section with random kind of templates. They have a pay section as well... They also offer clip art in case you want to do some photoshopping of your own. I use them a lot because when I make websites I tend to make gaming ones haha

Yeah, that's definitely true. I would only recommend templates if for some reason you're in a hurry to get a site up and need a design right now, then, okay, go ahead and use a template. And perhaps think about changing the template later. The best way is to create your own template. First of all you learn something, so you won't always be dependent on other people's work and limited to their style. Secondly, your website will be more unique and noticeable in the web world. People don't want to see a million of the same websites--the design factor is somehow stripped and gone.
I do things from scratch in Notepad. Part of the reason might be that I can't afford something like Dreamweaver, and after using it a couple of times at school, I did notice it created excess code. (Although the person who introduced me to using it said otherwise...but bah, he was just lying). Of course there are some things (such as positioning) that I wish I had a program to help me out on, but besides that, it's fine. Also, I think for the most part Dreamweaver implements tables, which makes it hard to make standards compliant HTML.
And for the recommending to beginners part, well, I partially agree. It kind of depends on the beginner's purpose. If all they expect to do is set up one website and not really get into designing websites, then it's fine to use a template. If they actually want to get into creating more websites, then they ought to learn everything from scratch.
Correct, as i said in a previous reply, i think that is absolutely necessary to learn HTML not only for those who get into designing websites. About Dreamweaver, one thing that i dont like of it is the excessive code it create, for example, sometime i develop a simple page with a few lines of code and the size of this was 1Kb, then i did the same page in Dreamweaver and my file size increments to 3Kb  but by the other side, one thing i like of it is the great functionality that offers to work with dynamic sites, specially when you work with Databases.

Well I think it is great for beginners, becaus eits almot a plug and play type of program, where if you dont know what scripts to use you can oull them from the directory list, and then add and make your changes. But at the same time I would say that Dreamweaver is and can be confusing for beginners as it has alot of content to tit and alof of options to look at and use.

Templates can be very useful and easy, however I still recommend creating your own, using some kind of base if not writing it from scratch. I would still be considered a "beginner" I think, but I am much more comfortable with using templates and programs like FrontPage now that I've chalked up some of my own HTML in Notepad. Just get the basics down, you know?
I'm just saying I don't recommend templates for complete beginners- learn your way around HTML first. Of course, lots of people probably already knew that.
