I was just coming here to request this template for Joomla!

I am super glad to hear it’s gonna happen the first quarter of this year. I think this was a fantastic design and could be used in a LOT of different types of websites!

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!

Hi Mike,

JA Methys might come out in feb or march, Hung has taken note of the requests and has lined it up for development. Even i am equally impressed with this one, though i dont have any development work going on, but still want this one in the JA showcase.

Regards

Arvind

That’s outstanding! No rush, super glad to see JA taking note of our feedback and wants. I am still so impressed with JA over the 2010 year in the way they’ve evolved and continue to be the leader inside the Joomla community.

If you get a free moment and see me on Skype, hit me up, I’d like to run a few things past you.

Hey Tom
You haven’t taken a job that you’ve slated JA METHYS for by any chance? 🙂
While I’ve seen computerdude state he’s the professional that alters the templates hugely from default, I think mainly for seo and so everyone doesn’t have a default ja social site etc.

Are you the same, (as a developer), or do you plan jobs around expected releases? Perhaps because it may be better suited to clients needs? It’s a bit of a game I feel, do we wait for something 2 months away just to save a few hrs design wise or just get the job done with what we have with an option to upgrade ( value added option) later on?

Just an interesting topic for me. Mind you it is academic ATM, I’m not a developer member . . . yet

I am in no way, shape or form a professional web designer/developer … or even a semi-pro … or even a nephew who offers to make something for his uncle’s fruit stand. I am purely a somewhere-between-beginner-and-intermmediate independent who has been working on his own personal multi-faceted ecommerce project for about four years now.

Or rather, I’m just a really impatient bastard that happens to really like the possibilities with this template . . . ESPECIALLY if it is designed around the T3/J1.6 framework, is integrated with VirtueMart and has (hopefully) some other key components/module features (i.e. JA Tabs (like JA Portfolio), maybe Seyret video, maybe J Social, I dunno.

😀

You’ve been working on an online shopping site for 4 yrs? OK, thought it would be a Magento concern rather than Virtuemart? seeing VM has hardly any updating and I’m yet to see if it will even work with J1.6. Thanks for sharing

Yah, that is EXACTLY the kicker – there doesn’t seem to be any concrete information as to whether VirtueMart will work with J 1.6 and/or whether the “slower than molasses” VirtueMart development community will EVER move their collective asses to further develop VrtueMart.

I actually DO very much like Magento . . . HOWEVER, in attempting to work with it a bit, I’ve found the overall file structure to be somewhat daunting to work with. Also, the available extensions/themes are QUITE pricey.

JoomlART is really the ONLY Magento Theme CLUB that I know about. All other theme makers demand anywhere between $80-$300 for their individual themes/templates. I don’t know about you, but for a base template/theme, that’s still a bit too cost-prohibitive for a budget-minded fledgling (hopeful) entrepreneur.

As an addendum . . .

The other thing that seems restrictive w/ regard to Magento is the (as far as I am aware) inability for cross-template/site/user compatibility and/or any semblance of a discernible content management system. If Magento had a CMS system (to work alongside it’s awesome ecommerce platform (as VirtueMart does with Joomla) even remotely equivalent to the power of Joomla – I would likely be focusing all my attention/effort into learning/using Magento.

That being said, I have to admit that I haven’t really delved too deeply into the K2 shopping cart – or even know whether or not it’s compatible with Joomla 1.6 yet. If it is, and if the JA Dev Team were considering utilizing the K2 cart, then I would hope that some additional attention to STYLING the various parts of the cart will be implemented. (To that effect …. and understanding the potential snarls I may get from some … this club’s particluar template has to have some of the BEST and overall professional VirtueMart styling I’ve ever seen –> CLICK HERE.
(Granted, the general template styling sucks, but the VM parts of it are, in my opinion, very nicely styled).

Just some constructive thoughts and suggestions as the JA Dev Team works on this upcoming template offering.

🙂

It has been noticed that some of the more active Virtuemart developer have moved to Tienda – http://extensions.joomla.org/search?q=tienda

As it appears a much more active project with a promise for 1.6 it would appear that is the direction to go in. Some template clubs cretainly seem tho think so too.

Well, a few things regarding “Tienda” . . . .

Number one, WHERE are the frontend screenshot and/or demo site examples ??

Number two, HOW MUCH is the FEATURE RICH “Enterprise Edition” going to cost us ??
