Today we launched a new ASP.NET MVC Design
Gallery on the www.asp.net site. The
design gallery hosts free HTML design templates that you can download and
easily use with your ASP.NET MVC applications. Included with each design
template is a Site.master file, a CSS stylesheet, and optionally a set of
images, partials, and helper methods that support them.
The gallery
allows you to preview each of the designs online, as well as download a .zip
version of them that you can extract and integrate into your site. The gallery
allows anyone to create and submit new designs under the creative commons
license. Visitors to the gallery can vote to provide feedback on them (thumbs
up/thumbs down). The most popular designs show up at the top of the gallery.

We think this will provide a useful way for developers to
more easily create attractive, standards compliant, sites. It will also
hopefully encourage folks to create and share designs that can be easily
re-used by others.
