I agree totally with you. Some people don't care if their site looks the same as the rest. I have no problem with it. It's OK, but in my case i need my own design which shows my visitors how much i care in giving them that something extra or different from other websites.
I'm also trying to stand out from the rest with my design which i will show when the time arrives.
For the moment i've done already my own buttons (easy), headers, footers and changed a bit the category and details template.
I'm still fine tuning details template and checking all the other templates.
It takes a bit longer because of the php calls and all the {blah blah...} which i'm trying to learn and the fact that i NEED multilanguage presentation and content.
This means not only translating all the links, buttons and menus but also as much content related stuff as possible and displaying it depending on the language selected by the user.
btw. widget1981: I like your site a lot. I might have some questions which i'm gonna PM you in the next days.
So JUST DO IT :p or NO RISK NO FUN and experiment with your templates. If you feel unsure work always with backups of your original templates.
Good luck!
