November 20, 2008 at 4:25 pm #279789Not impressed at all, looks like JA Galena with same modules but just on different places and with a new colour theme.
And some combinations with some other past templates.
Ja Galena:

November 20, 2008 at 4:31 pm #279791I realise that some templates can look alike but last template was much better i think.

November 20, 2008 at 4:54 pm #279793I like it. Yes it is similar to Galena. I particularly like the Blue theme. Very nice.

November 20, 2008 at 5:03 pm #279795I think some people are missing the little bits here and are too hung up on the “oh, its a bit transparent… next” thing.
Its immediately smoother and cleaner than ja_galena, its easier to Mod, its easer to adjust, and most importantly, its easier to read. Im actually a bit gutted I recently changed a website I was working on over to a RocketTheme template because this one would’ve been perfect for it. Will probably use this one, next year when the single comes and and we change site again (Got to love bands)
Its subtle, it flows really well, and nothing seems out of place. And typography complaints? how hard is it to change / add extra
p.stickynote {background: url(../images/sticky-bg.gif) no-repeat 5px center #FFFFFF;
border: 1px solid #CCCCCC;
padding: 10px 0px 10px 70px;
}
Lines in your CSS.
Personally, I really like this, as its a more subtle, smoother verson of any Transparent theme I’ve seen/used in Joomla.

November 20, 2008 at 9:59 pm #279819I came here just to compliment JA for this template. So…thanks!
I understand you gentlemen about look alikes, but then, this template looks truly nice like this, I also like the news modules and creative slideshow addition. It looks cool.
I do think that JA can be a bit more creative also, but that doesn’t mean these are not good or well to work with? I see several “creative” templates being sold that are not at all compatible, which is far worse actually. Or nice looking ones with 3 module positions: right and bottom – and main content as the third… Know what I mean? :confused:
I work with templates daily and go crazy having to find solutions for incompatibility. There can be a glitch here and there with JA, but they do great.
And typology, well, rip any joomla website from any templatebuilder and you can copy/paste it right into your template css. And don’t forget to rip the images that they need. Real easy. 😉
Thanks JA, I really like this one.
Best,

November 20, 2008 at 11:24 pm #279826I thought it was ok, at least it allows you to change background colours not the header text colour, which JA normally does. It’s one of JA’s rushed conglomerate templates, you know the ones slapped together when all the devs, Hung etc are spending all their time doing the Joomlancers show 🙂 It sure looks like Galena structure with fagus colur as default etc etc
But overall its not a bad template, but I agree its about time we started to get better choices of typography introduced by the developers, while yes as has been pointed out we can always add code , but as paying members we should expect some advances on prior works?
My thoughts ShannonN

November 21, 2008 at 12:24 am #279828This one is nice. Let’s be honest.
Innovative, some JA News I think inside + visual effects. This is creative. If it is bug free, would be even better 🙂
And last, but not least, not something I will use, but I appreciate it 🙂safarimark Friendsafarimark

November 21, 2008 at 4:23 am #279838I like this one. It loads quick, and has a very slick layout to the whole template.
I do not have a project for this template at the moment, but that could change soon.
From a scale of 1-10 I would give it a 7.

November 21, 2008 at 4:34 am #279839Reasonable. I particulary like the brown ‘woodgrain’ theme. However, certainly nothing groundbreaking but I’m sure some members will want to use it.

November 21, 2008 at 8:20 am #279848Hi All,
First I want to say that I like this template. Yes, I agree, that it looks like other templates. But looks is something you can customize.
About asking new typography. Be more specific. Tell them what you want. Explain. The way you ask it now like asking: I want another template. What exactly do you want to see? Other fonts, more variants in module-styles, different ordered lists etc.
With kind regards,
Peter -
