So now I’ve switched this site over to one of the main templates that domes with Joomla!. It’s pretty good as far as layout and features that it includes. You get new flashes and polls and latest news and most popular.
I like that the spacing doesn’t seem off in certain areas. Like the text editor where I write these little bits. It fits within the template nicely and I don’t lose the last 2 or so characters like one of the other templates. It’s nice and clean looking. And while the white background maybe a little boring to some I think it makes things more navigable and readable.
I have managed to modify the top header a bit to include a graphic of the site name. I may work on the fade part or the background bit soon. Just to see what sort of different look I can get. I may even add back some things that I’ve temporarily turned off. I need to get some better graphics to go with things like on the weblinks page.
Still it’s getting there. I’m not sure where.
Cheers.
