I think I am doing ok with my "free template" for now. I am just starting off and it doesn't make sense to buy one at this stage.
I agree with you to a point. Content is definitely the most important part of a blog, but design and an easy to navigate layout is also important. Surfers have a short attention span...if they have to search for what they are looking for, they'll go somewhere where it's easier to find.

I looked at your blog, and I'll agree about your template too...it's nice. I haven't seen that one anywhere for free, so evidently you hit the jackpot of freebies somewhere.
