I am collecting a portfolio - if I make up according to ready-made templates, where do I get the PSD from? And is it worth hiding the fact that I did not make up from PSD, but from a template?

Question

css

Hello!
I'm building a portfolio for freelancing. But I do not make layouts according to PSD layouts, but from ready-made templates. There, if anything, you can peep the code. In addition, you can see how some unusual elements are made, for example, a gallery, a parallax effect, etc.
In the future, I'm going to create a small portfolio site where my work will be. But I want to make sure that each work has 2 links - to the layout (in jpg format, for example) and to the layout.
Now questions.
1) Where can I get the layout if I made it according to the template, and not according to psd? Are there any quickest and easiest ways to create a layout from a ready-made layout?
2) Should I somehow try to hide the template that I made up? For example, if you type "Helios html" into Google, the first link will be exactly the template that I'm currently creating. It has an h1 (and more elements) that says Helios. Should I write something of my own instead of Helios in my implementation of this pattern? A savvy customer can google and find this template, because of which he may get the impression that the works in the portfolio are not mine at all, but downloaded, and that I am not a very reliable employee? Or is it normal in the practice of a typesetter to take a ready-made template and retype it?
3) Should I change the pictures in the downloaded layout to my own (again - to hide the fact that I made up according to a ready-made template)?

Answer 1

I would take a free PSD, make it up, and put it on my website. So it would be more correct and more honest, IMHO. That is, it will be an emulation of your work, when you are given a PSD, and you create a website from a picture, you don’t think that your clients will tell you, together with the PSD, how it will actually be correct to lay out the header, content, section, etc. Everything comes with experience, and if you want to typeset as intended in the post, then I think this can be found somewhere, it’s enough in English. fill in the necessary queries on Google or find the layout of other layout designers and try to layout without PSD, but without uploading it to the site, suddenly you will be accused of not creating anything but just downloading the template? Everything is possible.
