    Landscape Design Site using Kirigami

    Posted 9 years 5 months ago
    • www.earthtoneslandscape.com/kirigami

      JCE
      RokSprocket mosaic & showcase.

      Lots of photos, made good use of all the Promo css typo...might be too much, but open for suggestions.
      Looking for feedback before I move this site live...it's about ready.

      Thanks guys!

    • I love the colours so well suited to the clients endeavours.

      However, for me as much as I LIKE the background I find it a tad overpowering. How about blending down a notch so the content has a chance to POP.

      In your
      rt_kirigami-custom.css <-{Click the LINK }
      file add this:
      .main-bg-paper {
      	background-color: rgba(239, 242, 239, 0.32);
      	background-blend-mode: overlay;
      }

      BTW, Kirigami is one of my Fave templates

    • Dan,

      That is a great idea. I'll have to play around with blending modes. I do have an issue however, I've recently had the page speed module installed on my vps and I actually have to change file names to see a difference for images- but in this case once I added that code to the top of my custom css, the bg was white. I've tried to adjust, comment out, and eventually removed that line, but my bg is still white. Page speed is way out of my area of expertise... I put in a call to see about disabling it for this domain...open for suggestions. Guessing I need to wait a bit...

      We've had issues with Page Speed on this forum so I guess it has to be precisely setup.
      I'm curious as to before you disable Page Speed run your site on this http://www.webpagetest.org/ and save the results URL.
      If you disable Page Speed then install RokBooster and run again, I would be very curious as to the results.

      As for my custom CSS issue, please create a new Topic. Then post the link back here so I can find it.
