AphelionMay 2005 Bonus Joomla Template

Aphelion Template Club members now have access to a brand new bonus template for May. This template has been developed due to numerous requests for a Variable-Width version of April's DigitalEther template. This template uses the same variable-max system as is used in the mamboserver.com template. The navigation system uses the exclusive menu based on the very cool 'TransMenu' sliding menu system.
