		So I'm looking for an admin template and searching the offerings on Envato ThemeForest. And the most obvious thing to notice is that apart from minor differences in font and color, all the templates are pretty much identical. Why have all HTML templates converged to look the same?

because they use the adminLTE theme or some free stuff from the web and resell it. Some redesign it and some basically resell open source stuff.
