I like the look of PHP sites, but I don't feel like learning another language, or even spending much time on it.

Are there any good free PHP templates out there?

There are TONS of sites on Google, but most are fake or pay sites.

Thanks!

Whoa, I never noticed the Attach Code option... nifty.

The server side language a page is written in has no theoretical effect on how a page looks. It's all html (and styles, javascript....) on the client side. If you like the look of a site, just view the source and try to copy it with your own content. You'll figure it out pretty fast.

Here is PHPWebsite, that my hosting has. (included under Fantastico on cPanel)

This is what I am looking for, but this one is very basic. You can't even have HTML in the different pages or frames (text only), and there are tons of limitations. (each menu item has to be either a Text Page or a Gallery, I need some text up top, but a Gallery at the bottom)

I just basically need another one of these installer packages, like Gallery for a picture gallery, but I want it to be used to make a whole website, not just a photo gallery.

EDIT: Apparently you can do a lot more with PHPWebSite than it appears (look at their homepage PHPWebSite), but I am trying out PHP-Nuke now.

Do you have fantastico? If yes, there should be a section named "Content Management" within Fantastico. It should have all the popular PHP CMSs out there (Mambo, Siteframe, and Drupal are decent). I do NOT recommend PHP Nuke.
