i am looking for a new template for a creloaded b2b site . is algozone any better or worse than template monster ? I had a bad experience with a template monster template for zencart.

I did notice that most the algozone templates offer two different versions of each template , a 6.2 and a 6.2 B2B (B@B) version . Template monster only offers one version. My knee jerk reaction is that algozone might be a better choice because i am using the B2B version but that might be a bad assumption ...

I have purchased from both and received a much better quality template from Algozone.

Personally I like templatemonster because there are hundreds of quality designs. And I think that if you buy a template you should tailor it to your needs.

I used algozone way before templatemonster started to sell oscomerce and cre template. I think algozone has better approach to developing templates.
Tried template monster and it is not very intuitive. I can see it is done in the rush without any thinking.
They have nice templates no doubt but tuning them to your site will be a pain.

FYI. Algozone also have hundreds of templates.

See if this will help you.

They have some really nice templates too.

how come TM doesn't have different versions for creloaded pro and creloaded b2b like algozone does ? what is the difference ?

Im kinda hesitant to use TM because ive used their zencart templates and they are horse**** .

For paid templates, I've always used templatemonster. For free projects, I use something like free css templates (http://www.freecsstemplates.org/) which has over 200 well designed CSS templates. In fact, I'm thinking of redoing a business website, and may use one of those for that ;)

Because the TM templates are "one size fits all." The TM templates were designed graphics first, then chopped up and retrofitted onto the cart. They don't always work 100%, and the result is sloppy and disorganized.

The AlgoZone templates are customized to work as smoothly/intuitively/properly with the particular cart as possible. The different carts each do some things a bit differently. AZ takes that into account, TM does not.

Totally agree. I find Algozone templates to be more flexible. They use text driven menus and buttons.
It is a relief when I set up 2 languages for my clients. Vs. in TM you need to create 2 sets of images and doing some other changes. Basically, TM is mostly a cookie cuter and no thought evolved :(

I actually noticed on one of Algozone templates that I got very nice JavaScript modules for customer login and cart content. Did not expected to have that. Cool.

I've heard great things about 4templates.com
Never used them myself, but I know a few people who have and they had nothing but good things to say.
