I'm still a newbie...
Is using the templates in Dreamweaver a bit (for lack of a bad word) "Lazy"? I have been coding my own layouts with CSS so far but was curious how good or bad making use of the pre-made DW templates are?
FYI: Questions specific to Dreamweaver should be posted in the DW Gen Discussion Forum.

To quickly answer here, DW Templates (.dwt files) are a proprietary site management tool exclusive to Dreamweaver. Don't confuse DW Templates with pre-built CSS Layouts or Starter Pages. There is nothing "lazy" about using DW Templates alone or with Starter Pages. They can be a huge time saver.
