      I am actually playing with the gantry again on yet another test. I have gone dark with this one. Though its not perfect yet... i think I'm slowly getting there!

      I am very eager to see what comes out for January! With my luck, I will be right back to where i have been every month.. "Oh! a new template! Lets see how this works for our site!" ((sighs)) It is a never ending circle.

      So frogs eh? Why did I just get a visual of a bad movie The Frogs?

      Peace,

      Nice work Sarrene!

      Im still doing the module overrides and articles for rounded corners and bringing in the pagination override from my other site. Been so busy over the holidays.

      Eagerly awaiting the new template and Gantry 2.0.

    • Demo content - Frogs!
      Theme - Photography/Video/Download/Media
      Gantry - 2.0 with more options
      Extension - Totally pimped out RokBox.

      That is my guess, but I hope I get frogs right. :P

      I guess we've seen the last of the V series. So sad. :'(

      Styling for phocagallery would be cool. It wouldn't need to be for a photography template as a lot of sites have gallerys on them.

    • Hmm, Wingman - There is no more need for Versatility templates. We have Gantry now :D
    • Please reply with a direct link to the issue & create a new thread for each new issue.

      A template is only as good as the content that goes into it ;) - DanG

    • I believe with the release of the Gantry framework, while you may see some stunning layouts designed by the team, along with the ongoing development of RT extensions, really what your sites will look like will depend on your creativity and expertise.

      There are tons of requests for portals, 'news sites', 'lawyer sites', 'business sites', 'girly sites', 'clean sites', etc...

      Again, what it boils down to is your creativity and expertise.

      No longer are you confined to a predetermined layout and set Module positions, nor do you have to struggle adding code for that one position you really need to be here or there.

      With Gantry, instead of being 'given a fish', you'll be able to 'learn to fish'...

      If you put some time into understanding the concepts behind the layout and setting things up as you like rather than making your content fit what the team provides, you'll be well on your way to creating ANY kind of site your heart (or client's heart) desires.

      Duh! I am aware of that. LOL Just making a passing nostalgic remark.

      "Will we every sit there again in excitement days before the new release like like children waiting for Christmas or argue to no end that we need another V. We have come to an end of an era. Yes, it will bring great new wonderment (Gantry) but - we will miss the glory days of V - may it rest in peace. :cry:

      Everyone take a moment of silence. (Except for Sam Taylor - that poor man has no sense of humor. Maybe, we should get a collection together and see if we can buy him one. :P )

      Gantry is going to be hard to top on the excitement level, but then - this is a new template, new year and new era. Good Luck RT - I hope it is Da Bomb!
