I don't know about template creation, sorry. But maybe this can help you https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/customize-a-lxc-template.23461/

I have the same problem -> What can i do with a LXC-Container which is converted to a Template?

It's not available in the Template list, when i create a new Container.

Bump!
The Convert to Template options is available in Proxmox 4.1, however there is no Clone option.
I spent an hour creating a hardened Ubuntu container, then used the Convert to Template option.
So how the heck are you supposed to use the template you created!?

Am I missing something, or did Proxmox release half of a feature??

The "convert to template" button for LXC containers was added to the web interface too early (by mistake) and subsequently removed again (in pve-manager 4.1-22). The whole template/clone feature for LXC is currently heavily worked on, and is only available as experimental feature using the pct CLI tool.

Ah, okay. I must've fallen in the middle of those releases.
Thanks.
