Yes, I did not want to be the first, but I also earlier took a look and immediately recognized this as a Picaflor template. You make a good point about common zencart plugins, and I suppose that at some point there is only so many ways to change-up Zencart besides simple color changes. But thus far, Picaflor (Anne) and Brandon pretty much have their own, unique styles while working with the same framework.
And I personally prefer the acoin slider.
Anyway, to all designers, if one wants to make something unique how about something similar to this template:

It's a Prestashop template that just caught my eye. I'm not a template designer, but it looks deceptively easy to me (I know it probably isn't easy) but if I had the talent I'd work on something very similar right away. (My link is direct to product page but all look nice, IMO)
I somewhat kid myself that all I need do is make a fairly wide left column in Zencart with darker gray background, with lighter gray for rest of site, and addtional color touches in header and footer.
While we're grabbing templates, I'm thinking I could take Anne's recent Brighton template here:

Change the green horizontal nav to red/orange and be on my way to the above Prestashop template.
Seems so easy, but I'd probably mess it up.
May try though.
Anyway, good job with your enhancements and we're always excited to see new free templates.
