New Joomla Template Release, Formula

Formula Joomla Template is a Recipe for Success

Give your website a healthy start by using the right Joomla Template - - the right Formula. Joomlashack's Formula was built using the reliable Wright Framework. It comes with 6 cool colors each in light and dark versions and with some cool CSS3 animations. 

Formula, your Clean and Minimalist Canvas

Doohickeys, doodahs, and gizmos are all nice and well when you want them, but sometimes you need a nice, well diagramed and clean space to communicate an idea properly and without distractions. Formula will not get in the way of your master plan. It provides the developer with an almost perfect, pure, and minimalist canvas. It can be molded and designed to fit a great selection of themes.

Shackslides Joomla Extension Updated

Shackslides... it now dices and slices

We are as excited about our new updated version of Shackslides as the host of an infomercial is about his Ginsu knives. This practical and reliable slideshow module has been used already in thousands of sites. It's one of our best selling products - - one being bought with almost every template we sell. What I'm getting at is that it was already a great product and now it's even better.

The Future of Joomla's UI

I'd like to take the opportunity to let our readers know of a current open conversation about the future of Joomla's User Interface, or UI as it's commonly referred to, and invite everyone to share their input should they wish to.

Some of you may already know of Kyle Ledbetter's work over the last few months to bring modern standardization to the Joomla admin interface, an effort that many of us are very grateful he began.  For a peek, take a look at the screenshot above - yes, that's a possible Joomla admin interface!

Due largely in part to Kyle's efforts to incorporate the popular Twitter Bootstrap framework for use in standardizing the UI and presenting a set of tools for developers, Joomla's Production Leadership Team (PLT) has asked of the larger community what their desires and preferences for the adoption of an underlying framework be.

I invite you to read what Kyle has written in a summary of his overall goeals, and to head over to the JUI forum discussion to share your input.
