Great work on the site ;)  the gradient color of header benefits real nice with the glimmer of flash banner. Easyer navi for the preference itself since the multi language option and the adjustment is set at the top. Btw the girly black one looks better~ keep up with the good job.

Dear guilliam,

greetings from JCI São Paulo, Brazil!

we are also using Joomla! in our website: http://www.jcisp.org.br
(not so nice as JCI Zugbuana's site...)

I hope many other JCI chapters could also use Joomla! (I know that there are many still using Mambo...)

;)

@samp, thank you as well.. actually here in PH, i believe that the Zugbuana Launching(Jan 13, 2006) was a big bang for the JCIP(JCI Philippines) after seeing the power of Joomla over the conventional HTML and other cms.

nice site as well with yours.. content rich. btw.. have added a downloads area for JCI graphics and branding materials.. you might need to dl it from the site( though its mimrrored from the main JCI site http://www.jci.cc ).



hi aldrin, yes,.. finally had a showcase.. ehhehe.. got a local project(Philippine Based) in which finally NOT under NDA. :D

thanks for browsing around. i get a lot of inspiration from your work :)
