Last week, we have granted FREE access to download JA Wall for all the Developer members.

UPDATE : Downloads will be available only after 17th May, Pre-orders as this one are discounted. Post 17th May JA Wall will be sold on full price $ 49. Order now and save.Developer members will have free downloads privileges.

A few reasons behind this:

  1. JA Wall requires some advanced configuration and setup. We need to provide detailed and thorough userguide before the official sales.
  2. 2 core themes should be fine tuned and all core HTML/CSS markups must be solid and stable before we add the 6 styles.
  3. We will try not to change HTML/CSS markup after the stable release, we want to keep them FOREVER so that other developers/3rd party extension company can develop additional style / feature for this template. By maintaining a solid code base for layout/design, we can avoid incompatibility problem with any future update/release.
  4. Developer Members can contribute valuable feedback and help us ironing this template to become a popular grid-style basetheme for Joomla.
