I would slice and code them so you can see working demo's, but i don't know how to do that lol

They are really good for your first templates. The first one is nice, a bit too simple but not bad. The use of the grunge text with a stroke in the next two is a bit sloppy. Stay away from overuse of grunge text. The last one is quite nice. Stick to that style and make some more, they are nice.
Banjo
Thanks for the feedback. Ill make some more then maybe post a selection of template then ask whats the best for my site. Then ill learn how to slice and code templates.

P.S you no any good tutorial site for making web templates, Preferably ones a bit like that with 2 side menu's and a main content box?

Very nice designs overall for a first timer. I especially like the third design. It shows creativity and truly displays your skill as a designer. I could also sense a hint of Web2.0 on there as well. The only think I would like to see different is the navigation. I think the color is a bit too bright for the nav and would like to see it fade in a bit.

Yo Banjo.

I like that third template. Looks sleek.

I like all of 'em except the first one. Though the first one still pwns what I could do. So you pwn lol.
Banjo
Thanks for the great comments guys, ill probs make some more, but if i fail misirable then ill use the third one (Although i woud need to learn to slice and code it first lol).

How hard would it be to code the 3'rd one?

Any ideas on colour schemes and what should go where nav etc if i make more?

Btw the first one in my opinion is rubbish.

Yo Banjo!

This is a possible colour scheme for the third template:


I suggest you use the dark blue [#001E41] or the dark grey [#404040] as the main background, that orange-yellow colour [#8C6200] for your text headings and the off-white shade [#BFBFBF] for your text. You could use the rest of the colours as borders and/or other elements.

Cheers!
Banjo
Thanks Machine ill do that later.

Them colours are bloody awful!

and if i were to suggest any colours myself, i'd say check these out. Some pretty good ones that are less dull and boring.
