DelliStore: A Free Professional CSS/XHTML/PSD-Template
Over the last months we’ve heard numerous complaints about the lack of quality in our freebie releases. We are aware that our readers have high expectations and we try to do our best to meet them in our posts. In this post we release a beautiful high-quality (X)HTML/CSS-template (including its PSD-source) that will hopefully meet your expectations and come in handy in your projects.
[By the way, did you know there is a brand new Smashing Wordpress Book? Push WordPress past its limits!]
DelliStore Template
This template, designed by the design agency Dellustrations and released especially for Smashing Magazine and its readers, is a full px-based, cross-browser-compliant (X)HTML/CSS-template (IE 6, IE 7, Firefox, Safari, Google Chrome). It consists of 4 custom pages; the PSD-source is included in the release package. You may modify this template for a e-commerce web site, restaurant, pool and spa web-sites and other caters, ventures and facilities.
As always, the template is completely free and may be used for any private or commercial project without any restrictions whatsoever.
Download the set for free!

(SM) The link seems to work correctly?..
- 3May 2nd, 2009 2:14 am
nice! if you have a restaurant or something…
- 4May 2nd, 2009 2:14 am
nice one… why is there no more of all above option ?
(SM) Because that option wouldn’t make any sense.
- 5May 2nd, 2009 2:30 am
Good to see a cool non-WordPress theme so now and then…
- 6May 2nd, 2009 2:36 am
*gasp* The cake is a lie!
- 7May 2nd, 2009 2:39 am
Looking nice if you have a restaurant. Strange is that the template on their own page still costs 29,99 $ ???
- 8May 2nd, 2009 3:49 am
This is a well done theme!
- 9May 2nd, 2009 3:54 am
I’ve seen a very similar free theme about a month ago, also with the house and burgers and etc. Weird…
- 10May 2nd, 2009 4:00 am
AMAZING!
- 11May 2nd, 2009 4:20 am
“…designed by the design agency Dellustrations especially for Smashing Magazine and its readers…”? Hm… As someone stated before: They sold it on their site long before releasing it here and it´s still there…
(SM) The release pack was sent to us 4 months ago, but it was released only now.
- 12May 2nd, 2009 4:22 am
Thanks SM for the amazing release ! appreciate it a lot : )
- 13May 2nd, 2009 4:24 am
This is a well done theme!
- 14May 2nd, 2009 4:29 am
Awesome theme guys.
Great work! - 15May 2nd, 2009 4:31 am
hummm… isn’t useful for me.
- 16May 2nd, 2009 5:09 am
Thanks a lot guys, I have website just waiting for this.
- 17May 2nd, 2009 6:30 am
thanks :)) … nice one
- 18May 2nd, 2009 6:43 am
this looks forced and oversized, just as one of previous WP themes.
though, I agree, more templates are more than welcome, just not in this style. - 19May 2nd, 2009 7:40 am
Looks great, i was thinking about doing a template very similar to this
- 20May 2nd, 2009 7:58 am
Cool!
- 21May 2nd, 2009 8:56 am
Thank you…more css templates will be great…can we convert this to Joomla then publish them for free again?
- 22May 2nd, 2009 9:24 am
Nice template, its should come handy somehow. It could always be useful somehow even if you’re not going to design a deli, restaurant website. Just modify it and use your imagination instead of complaining for god sakes. It’s free!
- 23May 2nd, 2009 9:40 am
typo on the services page…don’t think you necessarily want everyone to ’sing up!’ ;)
- 24May 2nd, 2009 10:29 am
Awesome freebie. Not really sure why people have complained about quality, though. All SM free releases have been great.
- 25May 2nd, 2009 12:15 pm
I like learning how to do things. So, more articles please.
Maybe a little Gimp, too :-)
How about less of those 50 or 100 or 25 or 10 or 1293 things you must do or see or whatever type web pages ;-)
- 26May 2nd, 2009 12:37 pm
I find it hard to believe why people would complain about free stuff. IT’S FREE. Let these arseholes spend a lot of time creating something and have people complain about it.
Thanks for the freebit!
- 27May 2nd, 2009 12:55 pm
It took me 10 minutes to realize that this is not a two story building.
The loading of the site will most likely be slow with all those pictures, but i can see how it might be usefully in some cases.Grunge 2.0
- 28May 2nd, 2009 1:37 pm
thanks so much,wonderful
- 29May 2nd, 2009 3:45 pm
I really like it! thanks for the free template. I am going to use it very soon for a new friend who wants a site for her baking business. ( free is my favorite!)
- 30May 2nd, 2009 5:35 pm
Great design!
- 31May 2nd, 2009 5:39 pm
What’s with smashing magazine and all the free templates? Aren’t the use of templates very self defeating in the design world. We shouldn’t rely on creating website designs as cookie cutters for those too lazy to create something unique or hire a designer…this is problematic and I see more and more people thinking it’s okay to use this stuff for their businesses instead of creating unique content. I love smashing magazine, I think you guys have great articles for the most part, but what’s next… logo templates? Dear god please stop with the website templates.
- 32May 2nd, 2009 6:48 pm
Amazing…THANKS!!!!!!!
- 33May 2nd, 2009 8:44 pm
Great idea, Thanks SM and Dellustrations for posting such a great template. I would love to see more non-WP templates as well.
- 34May 3rd, 2009 12:44 am
Great idea….thanks! Please release more of this stuff.
- 35May 3rd, 2009 1:07 am
As somebody who doesn’t make PSD mock-ups in his sleep and is interested in seeing articles about all aspects of web development – thanks for a well commented and fully sliced, cross-browser compatible PSD.
- 36May 3rd, 2009 2:05 am
I think people should stop complaining a bit ;)
They’re free templates, so I’m already happy enough that someone is willing to put time into making something that looks better than average for us. Most free templates look like absolute (excuse the language) poo, so this is a welcome improvement.
Besides that, you can’t really make everyone happy all the time, as some templates appeal to other people than yourself.
Keep up the good work SM :)
p.s.: I do believe that visitors are expecting a high quality output from SM, wether it’s templates, articles or other things. As long as SM looks after that level of quality I think we’ll be fine :)
- 37May 3rd, 2009 8:43 am
What about a Real Estate Template! That would be awesome!
Thanks for the template! Nice 1

Very Nice Themes
Thank For Share :) - 40May 4th, 2009 12:24 am
Good looking theme! A couple of the id names are implying presenation a bit too much though (leftcol, rightcol). Lables should also be associated with their respecitve inputs. Would also have liked to see skip links as well. Enough of the complaining :)
- 41May 4th, 2009 4:47 am
Thanks for this free template. The PSD-File and the comments inside are very interesting.
- 42May 4th, 2009 6:01 am
As somebody who doesn’t make PSD mock-ups in his sleep and is interested in seeing articles about all aspects of web development – thanks for a well commented and fully sliced, cross-browser compatible PSD.
The PSD doesn’t seem to be sliced at all?
- 43May 4th, 2009 6:43 am
This is gorgeous, thanks so much for sharing!
- 44May 4th, 2009 7:26 am
A nice looking CSS/XHTML/PSD Template. I would like to see it more in the future, also EE or MT themes.
- 45May 4th, 2009 10:06 pm
Nicely designed, nicely coded :D Great post :D
- 46May 5th, 2009 10:03 am
Yea it was broken for me but after trying again it worked.
- 47May 6th, 2009 6:30 am
this is fantastic. thanks so much SM. as well as a beautiful template, it’s very handy for a hands-on learning tool. pick it apart, see how things are done (PSD, CSS, etc).
it boggles me that some complain, or offer the “no use to me…” comments. beat it h8rs… your comments only waste time. yours, and ours.
keep up the great work SM, it’s VERY appreciated!

to Justin Woods (May 2nd, 2009, 5:39 pm) – Listen idiot, it is not God posting this website templates, but people, normal human beings, earthlings. And, it is for free. Keep the name of the Lord out of it. And show us something usefull like this template being made by yourself.
- 49May 13th, 2009 6:09 am
Nice. Slices is missing?
- 50May 14th, 2009 8:21 am
Very good work, tanks for sharing :)

very useful template, thanks a lot
- 55June 13th, 2009 2:22 am
@SM That is true… also it is hilarious…
P.S. Sorry for the late reply… - 56June 15th, 2009 2:58 pm
Very nice theme…..now if only I owned a deli?..lol
- 57June 21st, 2009 7:02 pm
It looks awesome. Thanks For The Free Temp. Keep Them Coming
- 58June 24th, 2009 10:30 pm
To Dave (May 9th, 2009, 3:44 am)
Are you fucking retarded?
Read the post by the guy you responded to a few extra times and see the fucking irony of your comment when you say “And show us something usefull like this template being made by yourself.”The whole point of his post was that giving away free designs isn’t helping the design/development-community as a whole.
Idiot.
- 59July 2nd, 2009 2:59 am
Incredible theme, definitely one to save, thanks a lot Smashing Magazine!
- 60July 17th, 2009 3:07 pm
I don’t understand what people are supposed to do with these. Why would anyone use a design someone else made knowing that there are going to be hundreds of duplicates that look exactly the same? Especially when the subject matter is so specific like this theme.
I could see this being useful if it showed the process of creating the artwork in Photoshop.
- 61July 29th, 2009 12:02 pm
wow! thanks
- 62August 11th, 2009 12:42 am
Incredible! Nice for my preschool site, but alas (or is it me) it’s not Internet Exporer proof.. or am I doing something wrong? http://www.dekleinekapitein.nu is the site and in firefox it looks great, but IE (6) isn’t PNG proof.
Gorgeous template though and thanks for sharing!
- 63August 20th, 2009 12:23 pm
I was wondering where can i get better CSS templates for my locksmith business.

I have problem with IE 8!

Firstly: little schmuck – Justin Woods (May 2nd, 2009, 5:39 pm)
Stop crying to God about your problems regarding your
Webdesign business feeling threatened by Smashing
Magazine’s awesome work that they provide.Lastly: pondscum – Ludvig (June 24th, 2009, 10:30 pm)
Go wash your mouth out with soap and please,
don’t kiss anyone with your mouth, it’s so filthy.
Oh and if you feel as threatened as justin woods
is about your business too, then it’s time to pick
up the pace in your work abilities, isn’t it? - 67October 1st, 2009 3:34 am
Its amazing
- 68November 12th, 2009 9:06 am
great job
- 69November 23rd, 2009 6:19 pm
I think it looks fabulous, and great quality for a freebie. Don’t want free templates/don’t like it – then don’t use it, and let the rest of us enjoy ;-)
@Addy – great use! (and looks fine in Chrome btw).
- 70December 15th, 2009 7:22 pm
KooL ! I’m using it right now ! Who would have thought !
Thanks A Bunch !
