Rockhaven Cabin Rentals - Bentobox
« on: July 22, 2008, 01:58:11 PM »
Website URL: http://www.rockhavencabinrentals.com/database

(I am converting the original html site I designed to Joomla. The original site is simply http://www.rockhavencabinrentals.com)

Additional Extensions (Components, Modules, Plug ins): Fabrik (used for forms), Jambook for Guestbook, Simple Image Gallery for Gallery.

I am pretty proud of myself for getting it to look this close to the original. I also feel like it doesn't remotely resemble bentobox. This goes to show you that you can create your own look for almost any template with a little hard work. I am having some issues with the layout in Firefox, it looks pretty good in IE. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

P.S.: The customer now has control of the site and immediately started changing fonts to COMIC SANS OF ALL THINGS! I asked her to please leave the fonts alone, but I guess it is her choice. I need to figure out how to remove the fonts option from JCE Editor, but I can't do without it other than that!

looks good, I had some IE6 issues, but that doesn't say much. The site is looking very nice. The HTML site looks awesome from a design standpoint.

no, you dont, trust me. It sucks. I use it at work, so it gives me a a migrain every time I surf the web, especially if I'm trying to browse dynamic sites. Luckily, I have every browser known to man on my pc at home, so using IE6 at work is a humbling experience. I'm sure it looks great though, based on the HTML version.
