    I have a website that I've "retired" at http://www.storiesbyemail.com. I want a new look for its replacement at http://www.stories-by-email.com. The second address currently redirects to the first, but I plan to make it a separate, adjunct website.

    In answer to your qualifying questions:

    1) What is your website address?
    http://www.stories-by-email.com
    2) Description of your website:
    (Mostly) fictional stories by unknown authors, offered for free online reading and to be offered in emailed "ezines."
    3) List 3 template designs on FWT you really like:
    I know you're going to hate this answer, but I like most of the templates I see. http://www.freewebsitetemplates.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2209 is nicely done, as one example. I would like to retain the same general organization of the current site, with links along both the top and the left side, and the main text of the site in the large cell bottom right. Also, I want all links to be actual anchor text rather than flash or jpg hyperlink buttons. This needs to be a search-engine-friendly website.
    4) List 3 websites which you think look great ( doesn't need to be similar to your site):
    http://www.madison.com/
    http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/
    http://www.scifi.com/sfw/
    Feel free to be creative.
    5) List 3 similar websites:
    http://www.short-stories.co.uk/
    http://www.magportal.com
    http://www.astrosociety.org/education/resources/scifi.html
    Again, feel free to be creative.
    6) Do you have any images/photos that can be used for the template ( only copyright free ones )?
    No
    7) Any colors you prefer?
    Not really. Surprise me. About the only thing I don't like is something that's relatively monotone. If you're stuck for colors, use the color scheme from the retired site mentioned above.
