Your Guide to Using the Graffito Template for Joomla
Graffito, the October 2012 template release, is a corporate themed design, perfect for a plethora of sites due to its combination of visual character with subtlety. Built on the Gantry4 Framework, it features a responsive layout and LESS CSS support, a dynamic stylesheet language.
