Why not make some "member-store" available at NamePros where each member has their own online store front where they can sell their own templates with full screen shots (similar to templatemonster) with a price tag and a pay now button.
This system could be broken down into categories (member created or not) similar to VBAdvanced Gallery (same category idea in mind). This would allow members to create categories such as:
- Web Design
`--- Templates
`--- Logos
- Programming
`- PHP
`- ASP
`- JSP
`- RoR
`- etc
Each script has it's own main "selling page" from the author, and your members such as myself and of course others could go through your "member store" viewing templates instead of wasting time clicking through all the forum links to see only "text / content" about my beautiful "design", which in some cases, they are not designs I'd perfer to run my web site with.
Just a thought guys .. it would make you stand out from the other sites like sitepoint and digitial point.
Anyways, this is a modification for VBulletin I'll be working on over the summer, and will be happy to share the logic and process flow with your community if you feel there needs to be some change.
If any NP staff is interested, please PM me. I will send the URL to the staging URL where this hack can be displayed while in development.
