Joomla Club Templates
PrimeTimeJanuary 2005 Joomla Template
PrimeTime is the first template available via our new MamboDev template club. This template is what I like to call a medium colored fixed width portal. The whole color scheme of this design is dictated by the main header, module headers, and an accent color. The rest is very neutral with a predominantly white content area.
This template has an auto-contracting ‘newsflash’ area, as well as an auto-contracting ‘right’ column that allows it to accomodate width hungry components such as galleries and forums.
