Good question,
You do not have to use a template site. GetaCut.com comes with two casino options;
1. Generic Casino
2. Plug-in Casino
Our plug-in option allows you to add a full casino into an already existing site. Or, if you have a new site theme in mind you can design new webpages and simply plug the casino code into it when you are ready.
A good example of the latter type of casino is http://www.NancyNevada.com. Our casino host chose the PLUG-IN casino option. He had the idea for a themed site, so he designed the web pages and with our help created a very interesting site layout and design. All this was done for free in his spare time and he had the site up in about 2-3 weeks.

Jim
