Free Template -- Website Design X

Merry Christmas Everybody -

I created a 3 column website that has a sticky footer technique applied to it.

This is free to use, just copy and paste the code (or upload to your web server). Once you have it uploaded, there is a link which provides all the image files needed to make this website work.
*Note: just make sure you put the images in a directory called "images" ( /images ).

Features of this free template:
  1. Minimal graphics = fast page load speeds
  2. 3 Column Layout
  3. Footer Stays at the bottom of browser
  4. Once uploaded, there is a link to download original artwork files
  5. It's FREE! (Just don't rebrand it as your own)

Someone asked me if they can change the footer information -- The answer is ABSOLUTELY! When I say just don't rebrand it as your own, that means don't go passing this around as your creation. You can modify it to make it custom to you or your clients!

Enjoy!
