Self Install Info
If you do not wish to use one of the approved web hosts/shopping cart systems listed on my site, you can still purchase a template from me. You will have to either self install the template or have another designer who is experienced in coding for the web host/shopping cart system you are using.
What you need to know:
You will have to have some knowledge of HTML and CSS coding as well as html editing software such a Dreamweaver, etc. Most web hosts/shopping cart systems use their own internal site codes in addition to HTML and CSS coding. Since it is imposssible for me to learn all codes for every web host/shopping cart system, I cannot offer any additional support once all of the files are sent to you.
What is included:
You will receive, in a compressed ZIP file, the HTML coded template complete with CSS (custom style sheet.) The CSS may or may not be a separate external file depending on the complexity of the design. You will also receive the the flattened graphic/image files pertaining to the template. In most cases, I will add your business name and tagline to the template for you and personalize any buttons and/or graphic wording before the files are sent over. Once you receive the files, you will not be able to change the wording on the flattened graphic/image files yourself. You can always contact me if changes are needed and a small fee will apply.
What is not included:
You will not receive any layered files for Photoshop or Illustrator. The template itself does not have any functionality. It does not come with web hosting, shopping cart software, a CMS (content management system), a contact form, mailing list/newsletter sign up, search site feature or any additional pages. The web template itself is does not function as a website.
What you may not do:
You may not remove my credit link back to my website. Just because you purchase a template from me does not mean you own the copyright to the design. The copyright for the design, html/css coding and graphics remains with TCD. The Terms of Service as stated on my site still apply to a self installed template.
You may not use the design for more than one website. You may only use the template for the domain name you purchased it with. If you need a template for an additional domain name, please purchase a separate template from my site.
