BentoBox Released!
« on: February 28, 2007, 05:04:05 PM »

This month we tried to hit as many requests as possible.  First off this template design is based on the very pretty Bubblicious template. Make no mistake though, this template is completely new from the ground up.  It uses ZERO tables and maintains the collapsing module capabilities you have grown to love.  Also it comes in two fantastic flavors with 3 color variations each.  These provide an extremely varied array of applications from shops, businesses, travel sites, to photography showcases.  The demo site gives an example of what can be done when you apply this template to your content.  Lot of great features as usual, check out the full list here:

http://www.rockettheme.com/Templates/Available_Templates/BentoBox_-_Mar_07_Joomla_Templates/

Also couple of goodies:

1) Switched to Litebox as opposed to Slimbox, this seems to have resolved those ugly IE7 "Operation Aborted errors"
2) Have been talking with the author of Monoslideshow and have obtained a discount code for members to save 15% on it, so now only $16.95 for our members.
3) New and stunning dual layer tab menu system
4) Extra menu above the template for even more navigation options

Lots of other stuff.. just check out the demo:

Absolutely love the dark-themed versions!

  • My only observation is that, the quotations seem awfully dark (can't see them) in the "block_quote" scripts for the dark themes. I'm sure it could edited manually but I thought i would point it out.
  • The slide show seems very fluid and I love the "Ken Burns Effects."
  • My only question is this: Is this theme truly table-free? If it is, I think this will be a very popular theme for those people on shared-hosting who are experiencing lag on mySQL queries. PLEASE ELABORATE if you please!

Wonderful job AS ALWAYS!

Robert, that avatar looks kinda like eddie (iron maiden).. cool...

anyway, blockquotes elements are meant to be subtle. but you can change them if you like, just edit the source and re-export.  Regarding the table-less design, it doesn't have any HTML table elements, this does not refer to mysql tables.  This template doesn't use any db tables, but then again nor does any joomla template.  It's the content that is pulled from the db.

cheers.

lol, thanks Andy for the clarification... I guess if I would have thought about it, I would have answered my own question before I asked it!

And yes! that is Eddie from Iron Maiden! Brings us all to the '80's!

Fantastic, Andy! I have plans for the the new Dark version. The best template yet. Sweet!

QUESTION: If I have a component that uses Javascript, will I still be able to use the LiteBox feature?
