AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the search for aesthetically pleasing LaTeX layout templates for thesis writing. A user expresses dissatisfaction with an outdated template and seeks recommendations for better alternatives. They mention using a custom template based on scrbook, incorporating packages like fancyhdr for headers and footers, geometry for page layout, hyperref for linking, and charter for font selection. Additionally, it is noted that universities may have specific formatting requirements or provide starter classes for thesis layouts, which should be considered when choosing a template.

I know one the most common threads here are latex related, but would anyone have any good layout templates that they personally thought looked good or something they've come across?

I'm toying with a prehistorically old template for my thesis and I'm not liking the look of it. Any help?

I wrote my own based on scrbook, using fancyhdr for the footings/headings, the geometry package for the page layout, hyperref for some inter-document linking and charter for the font (though several other packages, such as palatino and newcent are readily available).

Also note, your university / institution may have certain demands about the layout and formatting of your thesis, and may even provide a class you can start from.
