The Memory Police by Yoko Ogawa
Synopsis: On an unnamed island off an unnamed coast, objects are disappearing: first hats, then ribbons, birds, roses - until things become much more serious. Most of the island's inhabitants are oblivious to these changes, while those few imbued with no power to recall the lost objects live in fear of the draconian Memory Police, who are committed to ensuring that what has disappeared remains forgotten.
When a young woman who is struggling to maintain her career as a novelist discovers that her editor is in danger from the Memory Police, she concocts a plan to hide him beneath the floorboards. As fear and loss close in around them, they cling to her wiring as the last way of preserving the past.

I was on a site recently that had their own templates but they had.... hundreds of those to wade through? If it was just a few pages to pick from, I wouldn't have had such a problem with it but this place went over the top lol.

While I enjoy coding my own stuff, I can see the benefit to using only forum sanctioned codes. It makes everything aesthetically pleasing, and flow nicely with a nicely coded site. It's only a deal breaker if, personally, I don't care for the template but that's super personal lol Everyone has their own likes/dislikes.

So yeah, I can see both sides of the argument and I don't strongly feel either way. It has pros and cons lol
