Joomla Club Templates
DigiManiaJune 2005 Joomla Template
This month’s MDTC template uses the simple elegant style that is used on a variety of sites including mozilla.org and mamboserver.com. I have had frequent requests to make the mamboserver.com template available, so to answer those requests, the June 05 template presents a lot of the same features in a slightly different package. This template was built from the same code and has many of the same features as the mamboserver.com design such as easily switchable color variations, improved suckerfish menu, and the variable-max width control system.
