There’s several places to find high-quality Joomla! templates. New Joomla-specific template houses are popping up every day. JoomlaJunkie, Rockettheme, Joomlart, Yootheme, Gavick, and TemplatePlazza certainly hold the market when it comes to Joomla! themes. Each of these places release at least one new template each month and they just keep getting better and better… but now, the traditional HTML Website templates houses are catching on the Joomla! craze and are now trying to capture some the market.

TemplateMonster and buytemplates.net  – a couple of the bigger “traditional” template builders who have jumped on the Joomla! wagon. So how do they compare with Joomla-exclusive designers?

I reviewed both TemplateMonster and buytemplates.net. Both produce professional designs… I liked the customization and the support that I received from buytemplates.net. The prices were similar, but for those who want something designed from scratch, buytemplates.net had the upper hand.

Although the traditional Joomla houses are constantly coming out with state-of-the-art, full-of-bells-and-whistles themes, there are definitely some good things about the other guys.(TemplateMonster and buytemplates.net )

1. Templates are new and fresh
2. Templates don’t look like normal Joomla! templates
3. Built strong (typically)

Good stuff coming from both of these guys… definitely check ‘em out.
