I don't like the templates supplied with VSD but there are lots of generic, free templates on the web. How can I import existing their html files into the website that I am creating with VSD? I have downloaded a nice template from (Link removed) which has 4 html files. Now how to get VSD to work with them? I don't think VSD is going to be much use to me unless I can download templates at will and see how they work for my small business (puppetry, very visual). Thanks!

You can only use templates made for VSD. Sorry. Why not make your page in VSD and use that as the base for all the rest.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

If you make one page that has all the common elements keep it as a standard. Then every time you need to add a page click Add Page then click the Duplicate Page and select the standard page. It's fast, it's simple, it's the way website design should be.:)

Actually investment in the HTML editor is great. Every webpage on the net is a potential theme. They can be modified to suit. Copying is the best form of flattery. All is fair in Love, War, and Web Design.

Trouble I find, after scanning dozens of sites I cannot find one I like. Best to do it your self. Ownership is best.
