The Dynamic Web Template Interchange Guidelines (DWTIG) have been developed by a consortium of web designers and developers for the purpose of providing guidelines to allow smooth transition when changing from an existing attached DWT design to a different DWT design.

All DWTIG compliant Dynamic Web Templates contain the same editable regions, with the same region names and characteristics, allowing the end user the ability to switch relatively seamlessly from one design to another.  Without this compliancy, changing from one DWT to another requires the end user to go through a painstaking process of determining which content in an existing editable region should be placed in which editable region of the new DWT on each and every page of the web.

All DWTs designed by TWC Graphics Design are fully DWTIG compliant, so once you have one of our DWT designs attached to your web, you may be assured of quick and easy transition to any other DWTIG compliant design, regardless of the company providing it.
