A PageKit is a web site template package that you can use to build your site.
Each PageKit contains a main page HTML file (example) that you can use for your home page, and a sub page HTML file (example) that you can copy as many times as you like to make the other pages of your site. Then you simply insert your own text, images or other content to make your site, using a web page editor or text editor.
Also in the PageKit are the image files that make up the PageKit's design, and a CSS style sheet file for controlling text appearance and layout.
The PageKit also includes the source PSD files that were used to create the template's images. If you have a graphics editor that can open PSD files, such as Adobe Photoshop, Corel Paint Shop Pro, or The GIMP, you can easily customize the images in the template. We have many handy tutorials available to help you with the PSDs. However you don't need a graphics editor to use a PageKit, unless you want to alter the PageKit's images.

Simply click on the Add To Cart button next to the PageKit you'd like to purchase - your shopping cart will appear in a new window. Then follow through the instructions on-screen to complete your order. We can accept payment using Visa, MasterCard and Visa Delta. All card details are encrypted using WorldPay's secure server.
Once your card payment has been completed, we'll usually email your chosen PageKit(s) within a few minutes. We email each PageKit as a .ZIP file. This .ZIP file contains the HTML pages and images that make up the template, along with the source Photoshop (.PSD) files that were used to create the template's graphics.
Please be aware that we sometimes need to make manual anti-fraud checks before delivery, which can delay delivery by a few hours. In rare cases these checks can take up to 2 business days to complete.
