    whstone - using template Chimera

      Component: K2

      ~Any criticism is welcomed.
      ~Still working on item/article pages. Trying to imitate some beautiful flat design pages but find it is so hard. I definitely need some good graphic designer to work with me.

      ~The layouts on mobile devices are totally messed up. Every time I use RT template, I have to spend a lot of time on overhauling mobile layouts, I think I didn't take full advantage of the build-in responsive feature. Those responsive classes(visible-desktop,hidden-tablet, etc.) are not sufficient to make fully compatible mobile layouts, need advice on achieving responsive with RT template too.

    • Still under-developed, thanks for the remind.
      I just feel the homepage is too messy, comparing to the elegance of the original template. Need some cons from graphic design perspective.

    • eh, that's why we use templates... to not reinvent the wheel...

      but, consider messing with the overlay so it's not still coppery.... because you jump from that copper/orange color into red/blue accent colors... also consider that red/blue aren't very complimentary of each other...

      maybe lessen the amount of animations as well... some are great, some are overkill...

      but overall, I think it's sharp still... I wouldn't have commented as such otherwise ;)

    • Hello,

      1 question: is it possible to use the animations of the Chimera homepage on the Ricochet template ?

    • Most animations on Chimera template are governed by two two CSS/javascript plugins: animate.css and wow.js
      animate.css handles the animation and wow.js for triggering the animation while scrolling.
      So yes, everything can be also implemented to another template, as long as those 2 plugins are included in HTML head.
