I am about to start looking for a website template. I’m looking for one where the design and layout is mainly CSS. I’m willing to pay for a good one that I like. I would rather do this than build my own from scratch. From there I plan to modify it wherever I can, but use it as a starting point.

Can anyone name me some good places to go that they recommend to find templates, and are there any problems that I may run into, or cautionary tales that I should keep in mind?

Thanks in advance guys.
