behzad, I agree.

Regardless, I have just forked out for the Professional Pack and I do have 30 days for a refund.

I have asked Michal to appear in this Thread to present his bona fides.

I have had a play with a few of the 743 XBuilder blocks and two of the 102? Templates.
I have found simple (& elegant) constructions with Guides (!) and code for simple forms as well as designs for up to three Variants.
When I say "simple", you could do them yourself, if you had the time and the experience. Few of us have gotten to grips with Parallax reveals. Overall, they are far easier to deconstruct than Xara's collection.

When Xara v15 Upgrade comes out, Magix have declared there are 18 new Templates, which, by my calculations, is $1 each (Half of the Upgrade cost and 2/3 of the development effort to templates as so little seems forthcoming on application code).
XBuilder is $67 so each Block is under $0.10.
The All Web Templates bundle is $197, so almost $2 each but if you bundle-bundle you get them all, with XBuilder for free, at $177.

All in all, just over 1GB of zipped Xara-powered Templates and Blocks.

There is a free collection at https://xaratemplates.com/free-templates/.

No endorsement yet and no association with XaraTemplates but with the right integration into Xara's Local design Gallery, i think I have gained a useful collection.

Even if you have no interest, check out the site Help page: https://xaratemplates.com/help/.
It has a number of resources that i have found useful. Shame how so many of the Xara help links not bomb.

P.S. Still showing commitment to the Xara Desktop applications - rah!
