    • And so it should be - it's a wedding site.

      Our old template was looking a little tired so we put Colormatic to work - you can see an almost complete conversion at www.yourwedding.com.au/new (still working on links/content etc) - if you want go to www.yourwedding.com.au to see our old template.

      Do the colours give you a headache? Is it clear on the front page how to get to places etc? (after working long hours on this it all gets a bit hazey...)

      Comments welcome..

    • I didn't see much of the site because of the pink striped background. Hard to read the content with that background.

    • Other than the background (I agree it is too much and distracts from the main content even though the colors work with the layout)

      I like what you have done with the rest of the site comparing to your old one -- big improvement, nice job.

    • I actually like the site and the pink background. Then it changed to blue and I couldn't get it back.

      I agree; dramatically improved over the old site and a perfect template for your content. I dig it! :) (I would jazz up the logo, though, as "your wedding" was a bit plain, but I assumed it was a placeholder? ;) )

      Is that phpbb2 running on the site? I am in need of forums (for a J1.0.15 and a J1.5 site), but really, REALLY struggling to find a solution...bridging 1.5 seems a few months away for a stable RokBridge, Fireboard disgusts me, SMF didn't seem bridgable after J1.0.13...could go on all night with my struggles, but won't hijack your thread. :)

      Again, I really like the background and think your target audience will really like it, too. VERY nicely done.

    • Thanks for the feedback - will need to look at the background color and logo.

      Terp - our forum is just PhpBB2, and wrapped with no left modules turned on - so long as forum is on same server and you wrap it to fit it works just fine - albeit on a seperate database.

      We originally had the fully intergrated version from Mehdi - was very elegant but as it used the Joomla rego/login we were getting hit hard with bots - since we wrapped the forum and added the anit-spam mod we haven't had one dodgey forum registration. (combined Joomla/PhpBB reg wasn't important for us)

      Hope to go live with new template this week.

      Cheers
      John
