Xara Templates.com. Is the program still available

**bwood** · 23 January 2024, 01:24 PM

Just visited Xara Templates to see what was new by Michal. I didn’t see his adjunct program to Xara Pro. I’m wondering if it’s still available. Now that he is working with Xara, I wonder if he’s discontinued his packages and the program?

Also he had a number of great tips. I recall a great tip of creating a parallax with pictures which was very useful.

Bill, it looks like Michal has gone to the dark side.
He previously wrote that he was embarking on a rebuild. Things seem to have drifted in his About Us > 2024 statement.
That said, he should still be honouring access to bought downloads, even if they are defunct or no longer for sale.

I just check all my invoices for download links and they either 404 or go to the latest home page update in his domain that is totally body-swerving all past paid templates and products (XBuilder) and hints & tips. Perhaps he is reworking his XBuilder stock into Web blocks. A thing I have tried with reasonable success.

Nothing lasts forever (TG excluded, even if it is fossilising).

I should have also said that MF's XBuilder Blocks are there in the Pluses' X Elements - search for (Block).

Yes. I do note on his blog he may do some “educational material”. I do hope he’s added parallax in that material. I must check to see if I did a print version of that. I usually print the tips and tricks. I think I have run off a book of pages from @acorn.
