Beautiful theme mates ... truly simplistic and just plain nice!

Great theme, only problem I got is with romanian characters not showing up correctly.

I'm guessing you are the person that submitted the support request at my site then. I left you a suggestion there. good luck!

Good work!



May I suggest that you reduce the heading sizes?

thank you.



The heading sizes are configurable in the style.css if you wish. They are all taken directly from the template that I used so I did not change them. (besides - they're **so** Web 2.0 this way! )

6. Lobos wrote on Apr 08, 2006 at 09:58 PM

Ah, you converted an existing template? I did the same with my Nautica release. For me it's quite enjoyable converting an existing template as I normally get bored after the design phase...

Nice theme, great job and most of all thank you for releasing this to the community! Best regards from Canada!

8. craigh wrote on Apr 08, 2006 at 10:53 PM

yes. It is a 'convert'. from the readme:



This theme is a 'port' of the template made available at http://www.mollio.org/. The actual templates used in this implementation are templates C (hence the name), B and A.

thank you and you're welcome!

Nice template, good port.

Only a very annoying glitch when you have (left) column longer than the central one. In that case footer, being just at the end of the center column, cuts the other ones.

11. craigh wrote on Apr 09, 2006 at 12:01 PM

yes, we've just been descussing that at length at my support forums. Turns out that it is a bug in the original template. I've provided some solutions to the problem there, the easiest of which is simply to delete the image (themes/xMollioC/images/body_bg.gif)

12. MACscr wrote on Apr 09, 2006 at 10:37 PM

Nice port. I know you put the original author information in the readme, but your news post made it look like you were trying to take credit for it until Lobos pointed things out.



Anyway, from reading over the readme file, it looks like your top menu design is flawed as it will not take advantage of any permissioning in the menu. I do see your predicament though when fixing this and still making it an easy theme distribution, so i really dont have any suggestions to fix it.

13. craigh wrote on Apr 10, 2006 at 12:17 AM

thanks for the positive feedback...



I'm not trying to take credit for the design.



ATTENTION EVERYONE! *I* DIDN'T DESIGN THE TEMPLATES FOR THIS THEME! I SIMPLY PORTED IT TO PostNuke! ORIGINAL TEMPLATES



happy? of course, that stuff is all outlined quite clearly in the readme...



as for the 'flaw' in the menu - I'll admit that the menu is hardcoded. I wouldn't call that a flaw. In addition, there *is* some use of permissions in the nav menu to display an Administration tab. But you wouldn't know that because you haven't really installed it to take a look. You're just lobbing grenades from a distance.



enjoy the theme!

Sry, I really didnt mean to throw a grenade. It really is a great port and Im sure there was definately plenty of tweaking that you had to do to get it to work right. I really DO appreciate you doing it and releasing it to the community. I probably shouldnt have said anything since Lobos had already noticed himself and you had already stated it in one of your comments. But i was just stating what I thought because i know people will glance over the article, look at the theme image, and think you did it. Was just more stating it for future purposes. Anyway, thanks for the fine work.



As for the menu system, well, Im not going to take that part back. I didnt mean it as saying the theme is worthless because of it and i did say that I couldnt think of a better way of doing it either. The PostNuke site that I work on the most has 36 different user groups and over 70 different permissions. The menu is completely different for different groups. Since i work with permissions so much and templating, it was just something that i noticed.

I can´t see the Navigation menu completely in IE! Why? Is this a bug?

18. craigh wrote on Apr 10, 2006 at 12:34 PM

got a link? also - I suggest putting support requests on the support forum (link above).

21. craigh wrote on Apr 10, 2006 at 03:34 PM

I'm guessing a conflict in the javascript or a corrupted file. I can't tell because your site never stops loading...



If you have further support questions, please put them on my support forums

22. craigh wrote on Apr 10, 2006 at 03:35 PM

Thanks!

23. craigh wrote on Apr 10, 2006 at 03:38 PM

I let it finish loading (took many minutes) and when it was done, the drop menus worked fine. so the conflict is some image that takes forever to load.

24. watermanFFM wrote on Apr 11, 2006 at 01:59 PM

Thanx a lot for the tip. It works! Great!
