Do you ever wish you could design website templates for your own websites, without having to know html code or php. Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to make them in a matter of minutes? Well now you can with a program called Web Design Generator – Artisteer.
No one I know has time to learn how to design website templates as well as build websites at the same time. Just learning how to make website templates could take years. I started to learn how to do all this, when I realized I would have to know how to write code for more than one language. To make templates I would need to know html, php, asp.net, and more. I would also have to learn how to package a template for each different content management system. Then I found Web Design Generator – Artisteer
It is very simple to use. For example you can make a WordPress theme and then upload the WordPress theme to your website and have your design up and running within the hour.
How to make your own Website Templates?
If I was to show you how to make a website template without using Artisteer it could take forever!! In Artisteer you simply choose which content management system you want to build a website template for and then start to design. See the screenshot above. When you have chosen what template you want to make a sample website template will appear and you will see a menu that looks allot like the Office 2007 menu.
Can I try Artisteer3 for free and make a website template?
Artisteer is available to download for free and try, however you will not be able to export a template. I tried Artisteer for free and made a fantastic template that I just had to have. Therefore I had to buy the program. (download Web Design Generator – Artisteer) I have already started making Free WordPress Templates to give away. I have also tested the templates online by installing them into WordPress. I then added a few plug ins and that was it. The template looked fantastic.

Web Design Generator – Artisteer
We all know that websites are the way of the future. The online world has now become just as important as the offline one. Being able to make your own Website Template for all the major content management systems such as WordPress, Blogger, Joomla, Dupral, and more, is a definite advantage.
How long will it take me to make a website template?
Lets just say you absolutely have no idea about html or php, but you have a WordPress website. If you wanted to make a new template to your design for your website, and decided to use Artisteer, after an hour, you would have your template finished and uploaded to WordPress. That’s how easy it is. There are also other options when searching for the best WordPress theme for your website.

It really does look like a great program, and one that I could really enjoy using.
> Just one question though:
Is there really a market for this kind of template? I have seen and used several different templates. I just want to know if it is worth it to try to actually build a business designing websites using this software.
Thanks
Nice article and videos Mitz. I downloaded the free version of artisteer and built a wordpress template for my portfolio. But the only templates I could make are with either horizontal nav (top or middle) or vertical nav (left or right).
I think it’s not possible to create templates with header and side nav bar on same plane. Am I going wrong somewhere or missing any part of the information?
Also is there any difference in building templates with or without purchasing the software except for saving and exporting?
I have not used the free version for a long time so I do not know its features now… It is seriously a fun program to use…I am pretty sure you can create any amount of menus but not sure what you mean by on the same plane?
Look at the menu on this website:

I wished artisteer supported themes like these with a logo and menu as part of header.
I agree that would be nice. Each year Artisteer improves so you never know what is next.

Im really going t buy the artiseer ware its just
what I need thanks!!

Have you had any experience with using wordpress plugins with your artisteer built wordpress themes? I wonder if the wordpress plugins will affect the theme or if they will work well together. thanks
