Simple[2]

[captainchet]

This template is simply an edited version of the default Simple template. I mostly just restyled a few things and added collapsible panels for the comments and photograph info. I wanted to keep things really stream-lined and easy to use, with nothing to distract from the photographs.

Demo available at my site: http://photo.linkportfolio.net/

Info on how to install can be found in the included readme file. If you have any questions feel free to post them here.

Happy shooting =)

Great template! I had a small issue with the css not showing up, and I realized you just need to adjust line 12 in each template page...instead of

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="templates/simple/css.css" title="css" />

It has to be

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="templates/simple[2]/css.css" title="css" />

Hi. Cool template. My CSS does not show either, just downloaded the template.


1) Is their a newer version with thatt fixed?


2) How can I make the photo's fade in and out like pixyblog.com ?

Excellent work.. hoping to get this to work soon 100% for me.

I thank you and look forward to any reply.

One other thing that would really be nice...

how do we add the boxover script ...

thats a nice effect

If we can add the boxover along with the photos fading in/out then this template would truly be A#1 Five Stars !! It's so close !!!!

@Themezz - I just uploaded a fixed version that points to the CSS file properly so that issue should be all cleared up now.
I'm afraid that this template is about minimalism and a simple, clear presentation of the photos. Feel free to add those effects if you like, it shouldn't be too tricky. Just head over to http://script.aculo.us/ and start exploring from there.

EDIT:
Looks like boxover is available here as well: http://boxover.swazz.org/

I really have no idea what you're asking, could you explain it again?

[theMezz]

Looks like the forum reformatted my message . Let me try it this way...

The template had a certain spacing between the menu choices.

Is that in the CSS file? If yes.. where???

Thanks

My guess is that it's in the css somewhere, if you dont mind, email me (ilink109@earthlink.nett with one less t) with your html and csss and i will see what i can do.
