Scott,
I think critique is a bit strong - just a comment to help out really. It's such an excellent design.
I've just added your main menu change to my site, and it's really helped. My old Top menu had a dhtml drop down - but:
a) I couldn't get it to work in replicant
b)couldn't even think about getting a second moomenu working.
So I've used your mods to get a secondary menu on the left when the top menu links are clicked. Needs some (lots of) styling, but seems ok so far... test.redingensians.info . I think I'm going to move the top menu too, as i think it's getting lost at the top of the page.
I did try it for the main menu, but I couldn't get the secondary menu to display only starting from the section you were in e.g. when you click on the academic programs link, then you only get the sub menu items for that in your secondary menu.
Next is the background switcher. I want to have a background image relating to the area of the site.
Thanks for sharing your stuff with the world.
regards
Gareth

Hi Scott,
Just to let you know that your site is Fantastic ! ( ;D Everybody here agree with that, I need to be original )
Thank you for your sharing with us.
btw, did you solve the problem with the menu going back of your flash module
what I did with Slideshowpro was adding
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
and
<embed src="myflashfilename.swf" wmode="transparent" ... />
to the html file.

Thanks Behring! Again, I can't say enough about the quality themes the RT staff puts out every month. Speaking to your suggestion, I have both of those wmode variables in-place--and it does solve the problems in IE/FF/Safari on PCs and Macs; but, the problem lies with FF and Konquerer on Linux boxes. I went searching for an answer on Adobe's website and their menus have the exact same problem in Linux! If Adobe hasn't solved it, I don't think I will

Scott,
Like it a lot. Very nice. I especially like the detail with the diagonal lines on the top. It's a small thing, but when you add the small things up...well....
How did you get the content in the NEWS section in the top mod position to justify left...I'm guessing it's something stupid and simple (I'm smart and complex...btw...uh...in contrast).
Also, about little things. I noticed the pop up for the video was untitled. Did you work on the video as well?
Great work. It's a strange little world where the melding of creative and concrete produces such awesome results.

Good catch on the small things... Not everyone sees the details! I did not work on the video portion; however, I do have access to the html pop-up. I'll be sure to add a title to it (another nice catch!).
To answer your question, I simply added the following to the template_css.css file:
/* @Custom Top Newsflash Padding */ #topbar div.moduletable-newsflash { float:left; padding-left:22px; color:#4C6397; } /* @end */
Of course, you can ignore my color attributes, and, you may need to adjust the padding-left (or remove it) so that it fits your needs.
Next, I just added -newsflash to the module class suffix entry of the newsflash module in the Joomla CP. Let me know if it works out for you! - ٩(•̮̮̃•̃)۶

Thanks Per! I only wish I could take a vacation! I'm in the process now of completely re-tooling a custom Joomla theme that I created in PhotoShop; however, the company that I sub-contracted the DB/theme integration to completely destroyed the Joomla core code and my template! I need to have the 5,000+ page website online during the week of October 22. Thanks to all of the amazing techniques I have learned here @ RT, it's made it a MUCH less daunting task, but no vacations until after this month! - ٩(•̮̮̃•̃)۶

- Just curious Scott - do you have any of your own sites?? or do you just contract out to other companies your services? Cause I'd love to see some of your own sites...if you have any.
