Master Pages and building "nice" sites
Brian is seeking community feedback around the topic of MasterPages to help ascertain the value of the ASP.NET team including some standard, out-of-the-box templates with the product. Read his blog entry here:

Personally, I think that a few, highly professional templates would be great but I don't see the need to go overboard in that area. I see the area of building templates and themes as a great opportunity for the community to step up and take a leading role.
One of my side projects for this year is to build a site which will act as a repository of themes, styles and templates. I purchased the domain - ASPThemes.net - and will hopefully have something ready not long after Beta2.
I think that it would be awesome if people could browse my repository of templates and themes and somehow "install" them directly into their application from within VS.
