Well I have to say I love this theme and since it was released I have ported what I had using the JA Rutile theme and looks pretty darn good! 😀

But I need to provide a lighter version for those who don’t like reading white on black… has there been a template.css created for basic white with black text or similar colors?

Thanks and great job guys

I have been thinking about the same thing- I would love to see something in a lighter color. Perhaps I will make one that’s lighter on the eyes when I have sometime. I get this feeling I am going to get slammed with work within the next two weeks….

Reading white is difficult although I love the look!

This is really simple to get just change the background images for all the boxes and change the overall background.

Background images:

Yeah, it’s not to bad. I just have to change the CSS quite a bit. I am working on a light tan version which requires all of the text and transparent backs to be changed. (I hope that’s ok with JA) I am also a bit of a perfectionist and minimalist. The backs on Uvite are a little too intense for me.

QUESTION: I have no clue how to package a template?? I have it on my local with JoomlaPC. I thought I should just unpack the uvite and pack it back up. Any other ideas?

I recommend joomlapack to transfer from your localhost to your web host.

You will find it here:

export/import

Joomlapack is awesome, but I meant pack it in a zip so I don’t have to an enter site. It would be good if I can make a lighter version and pack it for installation to a current site via the user panel in Joomla. It would make it easier than having people to manually add things. I am just interested because I am a curious guy…

I feel this could be a copyright violation…and moderators out there reading this?
