Yeah if you need to be able to create site collections and sites from the
SharePoint UI, (create Site Collections in Central Admin, or create Subsites
when in a site collection) and you want your custom template to be displayed
and selectable on the screen, then you need to implement a custom site
It is worth noting though guys that according to Microsoft you shouldn't be

Thanks Sezai, that's another option. I'll do some research into features,
did cover it in some training late last year but haven't used them yet.

once you've got your Site Definition template setup with the right feature
GUIDs etc, it's a lot easier :)
