klever1,

I am sorry if you don't like the template. The whole goal this month was to create a fast loading template and that means mostly pure css with little amounts of images. We've found that most Joomla templates are very graphic intensive and we are now offering our members an alternative.

Hi,
I was a little disappointed at first, but I do agree with Mikek that some templates are becoming to slow to load and that applies to most template makers. In their forums there is an increasing number of people looking for ways to speed up the loading times. So I guess Shape5 might have got it right on this one
Too many bells & whistles sometimes are not needed

I will find a use for this Template sometime soon

Cheers
Tony

I've been looking for a simple and clean site like this for a while! I agree there are too many templates that take a while to load.

Great job Shape5!  ;D

Is there any place to put a login in this template.
Other than a Mod style.

Hi, there's no custom login module for this. You can use the default login module in any position however. Was there a particular style you were looking for?

I personally like it - clean, simple and fast loading. Its about time Joomla developers started paying attention to 50-80K css files and dozens of images per page.

It's a good idea to go back sometimes to the basics. I do like fast template. I was very impresse bij "Forever ACE" and this one is a "look-a-like". I have already a destination for this template! Good work, I like it!
