is there any easy way of copying a website and changing the text, pics etc for my own use
 
If you can view the source, you may be able to have a look at the code.

You need to be aware of any potential copyright issues that may arise from copying websites.
 
As mentioned, you can save the website and click on View then on Source code (Page source on Firefox, something similiar on most browsers), editing this source code will change the contents/layout of the page.

You could also use any web page editing package (Dreamweaver etc) to make changes. This would be easier if changing graphics on the page.

Before you begin (even thinking about) "copying" a web page make sure you are FULLY....

several site copiers out there, as has been posted, as long as you dont infringe on any copyright images/text etc you'll be ok..
Try this http [broken link removed]
 
select File\SaveAs\Web Page Complete and you'll have the page (HTML) and a folder of images. You can then import the page and images into your website authoring program. Illegal without permission but great for learning how to create web pages along with looking at the source code
 
just bear in mind that template monster designs are usually very messy to tweak design wise but yeah what squonk said template monster is the business
 
Download wget (less than 1 meg for Windows) for whatever os you are using, then it's as simple as wget -m [broken link removed]

Use wget --help for more details
