I think it is just Kim Kunkel creating the templates. I've bought templates from her before and had a couple conversations. She is one of the few Americans who has hockey templates. (I seem to remember she dabbled a bit in micro a few years ago.) (edit LEO I remember telling her about Symbiostock back in the day

not sure if she tried it )
www.myphotoborders.com is another good one to buy sports templates.
Sean DeMint runs this one:
https://photosolutionsmarket.com/ He DOES have a vendor's mall, but I haven't looked into applying or if it's just some of his buddies work for sale on his site. He runs a facebook group I'm in and seems pretty approachable.
