http://demo.rockettheme.combest place to see them all in action note: most modules are fully collapsible, so if you see three columns, they can become two. width can usually be controlled within parameters in all the latest ones and the forums will tell you how to control the width of the older ones

that page is a demo of all the templates
its supposed to show all the templates. hardly what i'd call clutter
but, each to their own. you will find what you want on there

really sorry, but are you talking about http://demo.rockettheme.comif you are, then just look at the top - the drop down bar that lets you drop down and flick through all the templates it's not messy - its demonstrating the sites with content, so you get an idea of what they could look like - everyone does it, maybe not as good, but they do

its messy. IMO every template should have space at the top to delineate the clutter of the browser from the site content, even if its 10px.. look im not having a go at the brilliance of the work that goes into these templates, but the info overload is an assault on the brain.
*removed the dribble and just kept the point of the post*

Perhaps Simplix is a little more simple for you with less room for clutter; are you planning on using the template to replace this thing, Ryan? http://discovermandurah.com/

my frustration sounded aggressive and it wasn't meant to, so I edited down those posts. apologies.
i'll stick with what I have for the time being. hopefully in the next 12 months there will be something that people with very short attention spans can use.

Sadly, that [short attention span] goes hand-in-hand with your 135 IQ, genius.  (caveat: you would have had to read his original posts about the demo page looking like "shiete" and orgies and the like to understand what I am talking about here. )

Nah, yr right, I was over the top with my comments. I admit that, and that's why I removed them.
