I usually don’t change my site design at the drop of a hat but I really like the JA Cooper theme and just had to have it.
I only changed a few things to get it working and to make fiction-reading on the site a bit less hard on the eyes for visitors to the site.
It’s a Science Fiction/Fantasy writer’s site.

As always, suggestions for improvement appreciated. 🙂

Wow, excellent!
I like this, colors, distribution and this amazing “Popular Keywords”…
If I have something to say it would be that we find a page indication twice in every section (Home in the top of the page and Home in the menu for ex.). I propose to drop the upper one as no need for it.
All the best

You mean the Breadcrumbs at the very-top right?
I’ve been going back and forth about keeping that too.

Hi hdanh00
I have to admit I liked the old site very much, but the new version is absolutely awesome!
Great job. I think the combination of colours and layout matches a Sci-Fi writers site perfectly.
Nice one.

Yes I mean the Breadcrumbs at the very-top right… In reality, there is no additional information in keeping this in the very top. What you think?
All the best.

Thanks @ questbg! 🙂
imsleepy;112596There appears to be a problem. FYI I am using Vista and IE7. See screenshot below.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
@imsleepy : Thanks for pointing that out! I needed clear my cache , so everything seemed fine when I looked at the site using IE7 initially. It’s too bad. I really liked that Content Slider thingie…
@ara – oh yeah, it;s definitely going. There’s really no need for it on this particular site. 🙂

Everything looks perfect now without the content slider. There must be some sort of fix? It works find on the demo site. Isn’t it funny how something in IE7 will look perfect on the demo, but then on someone’s site it breaks. :confused:

I like the site much better with this template too! However I did notice a few things in IE7 as well. (Don’t you just love IE >:( ) I’ll get you some screenshots of what I’m seeing.

What is that popular keywords module in the bottom right corner? I like that and would like to use it.

Hi Phill,
I had the same question… see this thread for info… http://www.joomlart.com/forums/topic/tags-cloud/

Screenshots on my end:

Image 2
For what it’s worth, I’m working on another fairly new template (Zinc). It had the same image wrap error. I adjusted the CSS and it seemed to help. Search for “Article” in your template .css See what the property is on the padding.
Originally Zinc was set at 0 for the padding. I changed it to five.
/*article image*/
img {
margin: 0;
padding: 5px;
I’ve not worked with Cooper but it is next, so I can’t say for sure if the fix will help you or not!
Good Luck,
Jess

I knew it was a sort of tag cloud but this one is a nice ajax? rotating ball effect. That is what I am looking for.

@imsleepy – it’s crazy. There’s no reason I can think of, that it doesn’t work as it. Oh well.
@jwellman – yeah – I can’t begin to tell you how much I hate IE. Frankly, I’d ignore the problems completely if so many people didn’t still use IE. Hahaha.
I’ll be very grateful for whatever info you can pass on.
There are some things I doubt can ever be fixed – like the ugly way images in posts display, etc.
@phill luckhurst: It’s a really nifty module called “Joomulus” – it’s based on Roy Tanck’s WP-Cumulus plugin and can be found here: http://blog.joomlabear.com/porting-roy-tancks-beautiful-wpcumulus-joomla/

Looking at her page source it looks like she is using Joomulu cloud tag.
