Of course you'd use templates with CSS. I use template systems in Perl (TT) and smarty for PHP. For both I just dynamically determine the path to templates they want /thin /thick and your templates can be completeley different, not just style changes. Also, I've not convinced anyone where I'm at now to use smarty. In my mind they are penny-wise and pound foolish. The real little extra time you might need to use a template system is richly rewarded in code re-use and future changes to the site not to mention, imho, thinking better about what one is doing.
