What do you do with old / retired site designs?

[immediate]

If you do love your site, I'm sure you would change the design / style / look of it from time to time. If it was an original design, when you take it down in favor of a new one, what would you do with the retired one?

Simply throw it away? Use it for another site? Make it a template and release it free?

I'd squeeze the last drop of value from it by releasing it free.

I generally create my sites using php includes so header/footer/menu/etc are all separate files, so they are essentially templates.

I generally reuse them or archive them, unless I sell the site then I never use them again.
