All static custom templates based on simplified version of header/footer ("bare bones" add-on to RC v3.2c/3.3/4.0). In most of the cases you would not be able to use built into application templates after installation of any custom templates listed below. All custom templates have very specific design (menus, static width, side portals position, etc... ), which cannot be changed dynamically with administration pages such as "Main Page Configuration" and "Side Bars Content and Geometry". Portal content could still be maintained on-line with respective templates in "Content Management".

The main advantage of custom templates is, that they are built with simplified header/footer content enclosure and pure css. Which in turn, makes possible to easily integrate application into practically any existed web site or a 3-d party HTML template.

Custom templates provided on "AS IS" basis and have limited support. Changes to content structure (not the content itself) such as site width, portal width and location, menu blocks structure, etc would require solid CSS skills.
