    Default Earn money making templates

    The phpLynx script has now gone through just about as much testing it needs to now and with over 500 users of the free version we are just about to officially launch it together with the full versions.

    We're looking for talented designers to take up the challenge of designing templates for the Lynx script, with the limitation of smarty reliance to about 10% designing should be a snip for anyone with a fair level of knowledge.

    As the owner, I'd be happy to discuss even paying for some good templates and of course anyone is free to sell their designs or tout for business on our forum.

    I am looking forward to skinning this, I have been up to my ears with personal problems and coding wordpress skins for clients, I haven't had time yet but when I do it will cost $1,000 to use my theme. :twisted:

    Thanks Kalina, although I'm not quite sure you'd get many takers on that one mg: On a serious not how much do you charge for a skin, say for example a phpld one as they seem the major one people on your forum use?

    I charge a minimum of $200 USD for any custom themes, that goes for Wordpress, vBulletin, phpLD, etc.

    That seems like a fair price to me. I charge $125.00 for a 4 color vbulletin styles. People don't seem to realize how much work it is and always lose track of how many changes they ask for.

    Hi All, sorry for the delay in reponse, been having major surgery, sneaked on this for a while. My comment was on Kalia posting she charges a min of $1000.00 per time to use here any one of here themes.

    To be honest I couldnt or wouldn't even comment on that price as I haven't seen any designs yet, I can't compare pphl ones or wordpress as they are for different products.

    Will be great when people do jump on the bandwagon and get some done and I'm certain there are many users who will want to buy ones induvidual to thier sites.

    $1000 was a BIG joke.

    I honestly cant comment on your work or pricing as mentioned by grim above, as you havent done any for the lynx script yet, although its great to see others have and it looks promising.

    I notice in your sig
    PHPLinkDirectory - The #1 directory script
    If your the admin and this is your view is it worth any other scripts even trying to post here?

    You seem to have two choices. Keep trying to fight the battle that you appear to believe in or give up.
    You don't strike me as the type to give up.

    There are quite a few directory scripts out there.
    It is just that it seems that with so many people on DP forums using phpld, it is very popular.
    Would be an interesting search to find out which directory script is really the most used.

    Kalina did post a nice list of directory scripts here:
    List of Directory Scripts
    And others added some more.

    Always worth posting about your script, a new script or any script.
    It boils down to one simple thing, by posting your script here, will people use it?

    No one has seen work from me on the lynx script yet, not even I.

    I've agreed to trade links with phpld for a month, they link back to me.

    That's up for you to decide, my sig is mine and I can do with it as I please, admin or not, Kevin.

    Have you taken the time to go over to our forum Kalina? http://www.allabouthomes.ca/document.html?id=19 Another one someone is playing with is http://phplynx.allinhosting.co.uk, and so on, There's lots more going on and pleasingly people are asking if they can design rather than me ask them.

    I made an educated decision not to come to forums to keep people up to date anymore Kalina as people judge me by my attitude not my script. As one wise senior member on many forums taught me, it aint about me, its about the script and it really is good enough to speak for itself.

    I've agreed to trade links with phpld for a month, they link back to me.
    It was only a questions as a sponsor, thanks for the answer.

    That's up for you to decide, my sig is mine and I can do with it as I please, admin or not, Kevin.
    As is mine as a sponsor which I know you'll respect.

    I'll start my business in selling templates soon.
    PHPLynx is one of my target market since it is quite new, so the competition is not many.

    No there isn't but in the free version, the full version is to encorperate a template editor http://www.cantufind.com/forum/showt...emplate+editor so that people of any level should find it a lot easier; I used it to make mine.



    @ seventh, you'd be surprised at how many e-mails I'm getting from people who are quietly plugging away at the designs, that's the benefit of not having a saturated market, there's plenty of opportunity for people.

    Good luck if you decide to make any, if I can make one believe me, anyone can as my knowledge is limited and I'm not ashamed to admit it.

    I've have seen your work and quality of it I wouldnt be scared off by the minimum rate or higher, let me know what your rates are and perhaps we can work out something.

    Sorry I was late to grasp this one Zap, haven't really been paying much attention recently. The only 'battle' to quote you, was the massive tumour I just had removed, and beat, so I guess the rest of life's challenges, including making a directory script to compete with others out there I don't even consider a challenge let alone a battle.

    Giving up? your spot on Zap, there's no chance of that, the phpLynx script it isnt going anywhere but upwards.

    I saw templates for your script. Some are nice, but all look kind a old fashioned-like top designs of 90's. You need some clean designs with cool color scheme. Forget drop shadows and blue links.

    Which templates did you see? Any on our forum are default templates, www.phplynx.com/demo is the free default. Let me know which ones you refer to and I can then reply with a qualified answer.

    Thanks
