1stly chops - awesome work on the new Drop in Templates. Very very impressed.

I have installed the WOW one and noticed 2 slight bugs that you may want to look at.

1stly on any main heading (News, Admin Panel...etc) the graphic duplicates itself and the begining and end.

2nd - the default of the calendar is quite large.

I have attached a screenshot for you to see what I mean

Also... can we revert back to our original scheme if we decide we do not like the drop we choose??

I believe reverting it should be listed under the Advanced layout. Either revert to original (if your not using a layout) or download a copy of your files (if your using a customer layout) prior to the drop in template change and upload them again and activate them.

Six Demon Bag
Jack Burton: Hey, what more can a guy ask for?
Egg Shen: Oh, a six-demon bag!
Jack Burton: Terrific, a six-demon bag. Sensational. What's in it, Egg?
Egg Shen: Wind, fire, all that kind of thing!

how do i download my stuff... i am not using any cutom stuff right now... but when i click <Use It> it tells me that it will over write my current files.

I don't know if this changed when the templates were added. In the past if you were using a custom layout (as I had been) you would go to Admin > Layout > Advanced Layout and there was a button that said Revert to Original. Using a template now appears to essentially add a custom layout to your site. If you didn't have one before and you revert it should go back to what you had before.

I'm searching some old posts were I know this was asked before so I can verify if this is right or not.

If you are not currently using an Advanced Layout, then reverting back is as simple as clicking a button in the "Revert" section at the top of the "Drop-In Templates" (this section appears once you've deployed one).

In that regard, it's quite simple.

If you ARE currently using an advanced Layout, then you'll have to download your old layout files from the "Advanced Layout Section" to tweak and re-upload.

Ultimately, the templates are like an "Advanced Layout" simply done for you instantly.

It's all in the reflexes.

Just an update on my origional query.

Looks like a padding issue in IE as in Firefox site is perfect.

Forgot to mention we tweaked ours a bit.

let me know what you think?

(use the pkwow link and the pklotr is our Sandbox one)

Would you mind attaching your files. I like what you done to change it. While I like Chops original template for this theme it seems cluttered to me. You've managed to fix some of the things I felt looked cluttered at the top. With a little personalization I might deploy something like this or suggest to Chops to change his template to reflect more of what yours did. I especially thing the Left Side Banner was a nice touch.

Yeah, it's just an IE7 thing.

I've got a solution mostly done.

Taylia was our designed who tweaked things - I will have a word with him.

Alrighty, Aldor, I have the fixes for the WoW template.

In the CSS portion of the layout.html file, make these changes:

Cheers Chops will try it.

Thanks for the positive feedback about the style. I am not yet finished with the site and have a couple of other things planned for it, largely centered around the menus. Once I have got it all in place I will make the layout.html and style.css files available here.
