Nice uncluttered template. I could use this one.

Just one thing, it seems to have a menu at the bottom; "ABOUT JOOMLA  |  FEATURES  |  NEWS  |  THE COMMUNITY  |  CONTACT" but they don't show as links.

Also the "bread crumbs" don't seem to render correctly with IE7. It's OK with FireFox...but then it would be!!!

about the bottom ...i've replaced it with validation links 

and yes i haven't tested with IE7, only in IE6, FireFox, Opera and Safari. But I'll try to find the screenshot in IE7 and try to make the breadcrumbs render correctly. Thank you for letting me know.

Nice job

thank you 
i have added a new feature too

your template is so good that I'd like to ask you other colour variations of your template. If you have a little time at your disposition you can offer a more complete template, as I think more colour variations is another good point for that template

no specific meaning.   i took it from where i came from, java island.

well, you know that your template is one of my favourite...

what already said is about to have [1] more colours for that template (I think important this idea), moreover the font used is IMO good (what type of font have you used?) but another idea is [2] to avoid an image for a simple text... maybe for obtaining less images and some text in as a logo more accessible to search engines (What do you think about?).

Another idea is to have an accessible version of this template, [3] with a contrast of colours that is easier for people with eyes problems, in this case if you see the white backgroung page for those people there are a lot of light for their eyes.

I think that for the template is particulary important the point [1], maybe a plus would be the point [2] and the point [3] is only a personal opinion (I'd like to see your reply for that) at this stage.

Great template indeed - on my top 5 list! 

[svenl]

nice template  doengs 

If you have some more colour variations when it's final time (I think this template is among the top 5) it will be great. Also an easy way for changing colour theme from frontside and have the possibility for font size change.

Besides making the columns collapsible, i think a few of the module positions also should be collapsible.

I agree with you! More colours such as orange or yellow or red and columns collapsible.

There is a bug when I use my browser Konqueror 3.3.1 > the buttons dont display any text, there is a white space inside the button in your demo site

[1] i have added another 6 colours so we'll have 9 colours variation in the template. maybe later i might add the "dark series" of this template or other more accessible version of this template [3].

i used rezland font http://www.dafont.com/rezland.font. I chose the font because IMHO it blends perfectly with the template. And I agree with you for [2]. I intend to use SIFR though but I created this template 2 days from the closing submission and i think i wouldn't have enough time to finish it so i just simply use the image  .

thank you for your input. i really appreciate it

just add another 6 colour variations so it will be 9 colours available

orange and red now available

I'm very glad to help you as I hope you can enter in the final top 5. I like what you've done and above all the sense of equilibrium of the entire template. It's not easy... moreover I like to see "unknown" (by me) people that can build a very good template like that!

I like to know about the exention of colours available and a possible dark series for letting that template more accessible to everybody  ;)

I'd like to share with you my idea about "using SIFR" as I like to help who deserves to be helped... for lack of time, well, I'm not so expert in design and in this case I'm very sorry not to be able to help you  :( as in my mind (my personal opinion) the template is technically perfect for the TOP 5 with SIFR on.

Please can me link something for understanding how SIFR can be used in a template?

Following your good design, I'm studying you code for better understanding how a 1.5 template works...  ;) and it's very interesting!

[MindTooth]

Maybe add some more typograpy? Just keep up the good work. Thinking of opening a template club?
