    Web's Ugliest Joomla Template

    Posted 16 years 10 months ago
    • Is here: dev.joomla.org/content/view/17/60/#nightly

      It's the nightly build for J1.5.4. It's the default template, and it's got to be one of the ugliest templates I've ever seen. I don't know what they are thinking. It's just friggin horrible.

      All of those entries in the template contest and this was the best they could do?

    • eh? why would they change a template in a minor build? Milkyway and Beez are great.

      Well, so many good core devs gone, starting from Andy the ultimate Joomla template dev.

    • ohhhhh ok. Thank you for the clarification Amy.

      Mack didn't mention it was ja_purity. About time they got around to putting it in.

      Also, just to update my earlier post. Beez is probably the ugliest template around, but is definitely the best template override tutorial. I've learned so much from it.

      I just installed a nightly for a test and went to the front page. (I'm glad I wasn't eating.) I had no intention of bashing another club, I just saw that template and happened to be logged into here. Sorry, I didn't look at the name first.

    • Andy Miller is the Undisputed World Champion of Templating. Even other free software communities talk about his work. Andy could easily launch RocketTheme love in other hemispheres.

      Every single month, I download his work and I study it. I'm not even certain you can call it a template - the level of sophistication and the ease of use is remarkable.

      Andy cheats at putt-putt golf, though, so keep it in mind if he suggests a round.

      Amy :)

    • I am not sure about this, but I heard a rumor that the JA stands for Just Average.

      Some times I get so frustrated with them that I wonder if they should change it to JO.
