Anyone that is interested in the theme should contact me via e-mail, I will release it to those individuals who show interest through the form of a PayPal donation. Process - you e-mail me and I give you my PayPal info. Submit a donation (whatever you like) and e-mail me the PayPal Confirmation and I will send you the package.

Will include directions and modifications needed to get my results.

Some things to consider before going any further.....

1. It is NOT exactly like JomSocial, I just don't have the time to decode and re-code some aspects of CB although I wish I did.
2. Graphics, Icons and so forth are provided with the assumption that these will be replaced by you with your own, I own no copyright to them and do not wish to do so.
3. Your Joomla! template is not the same as mine so it may require some additional fine tuning to make things work JUST right for you, obviously you will have to be the judge of this.
4. It is assumed that you have "little" knowledge of Joomla, FTP, and the use of a text editor. If not.. grab the biggest stick you can find and wack yourself over the head.
5. I can't provide constant support nor can I guarantee any support but I will do my very best to help anyone who donates. Helping you means helping me and to do so your going to have to do the following:
a. Provide a screen shot of the problem
b. Provide details of the problem, when it happened and how
c. Which browser are you having problems with
d. Joomla Super Admin Login credentials
e. Possibly FTP Login credentials
6. It is assumed that you will not distribute ANY of these files without my permission. I ask this because I have project to fund as well and leaky code just ruins someones desire to help the community.
7. If you use my e-mail do just that but don't abuse it or I will abuse you!


On a side note, anyone who is familiar with Linkedin.com will be happy to know I am working on another Template to mimic Linkedin's results and layout.

This includes a new Connections Plugin which removes the Hover Box and places that text inside the Connections Box as well as some styling. This can be beneficial for Social Networking sites that want AS MUCH data on a page as possible.

Because I couldn't come to a conclusion which was better Accordion or Tabs I kept the tabs as I think this is what I want my users to use.

Also, I couldn't come to a conclusion on tab design although I have an idea of what I would like to see I have yet to impliment it. If you have an idea but don't know how to implement it (As far as tab design goes) please share with me and I will help make it possible.

The file package will be ready this evening, anyone interested please e-mail me at [email protected] <<< THIS IS NOT MY PAYPAL E-mail!

As a recommendation to all those reading this I recommend and use the following:
1. FireFox 3.0.10 www.mozilla.com
2. FireBug << Firefox Addon
3. WedDeveloper << Forefox Addon
4. Pixie << Color Finder/Picker www.nattyware.com
5. Notepad ++ << Text Editor notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/site.htm

All of the above are FREE and very beneficial to web design and development.

Thanks,
James


If you have questions regarding the template send me a Private Message please! James

I will try my best to put a demo together tonight.

Thanks,
James

Yeah! it's a great idea to see a demo!!

I'd really be interested in seeing a demo too. The examples that you've posted look great.

For those who have followed this thread I do apologize, I have been up and down and never at one place for too long. In part this is my fault, mainly for announcing something so relevant and to not produce I guess you would say.

To those who have emailed me and I have not respond or respond and little to no followup forgive me also. As many of you do yourselves I have the family, friends and full time job thus... having many obligations and responsibilities which generally come far before websites, fun and joomla... so sad right?

Well, I can't promise you that everyone will be happy because I know your going to encounter problems..... and I can't assure you that I will be here to help but because of my lack of time and ability to offer 24/7 support I figured what the hell.... so here is the last preview. I am packing this up tonight and sending it to you folks.

As an added bonus many of you may know that the CB backend uses Luna template.. PUKE! So, I tricked it out a little and made some new tabs. I hope everyone likes.

Screenshots below/attached: (Packages to follow)








I do not have time to setup a demo, if screenshots aren't descriptive enough then I apologize.

Ok, attached is a copy of the Package!

First, I insist that you read the Read Me... otherwise, well there is no otherwise just do it. Second, please make a backup of your site's FILES and DATABASE... you may decide you hate it and want to restore it to the previous state.

LAST... I strongly urge donations as these are what help fuel the fire and keep US creating exciting new additions to the Joomla! Community. Should you like to donate please do so at my PayPal account: hjames @ contechnet.com << Remove the spaces.
