Side Of Chili Theme

I have just created a zenphoto theme with a sidebar. For the most part it is pretty basic. I did add a few ajax effects using jquery and scriptaculous. I have posted it on the Wiki and here is a link to the demo

download is here

right now.. the look isnt what I would like it to be in IE(really just rounded corners) but the effects work.

Lemme know any feedback.

  • It's looking pretty nice Chili, my only thoughs are that the bottom bar isn't the same width as the top bar. If you're going for "symmetry" you don't have it.

    Also, it seems that the centering of content is off. It looks good when in gallery view, but when in album and image view.

    Keep up the good work!
  • Yeah... I feel a little silly about that now. I was lookin for feedback like this about a 2 weeks ago.. and now that you mention it.. I do see what you are talkin about.. and while lookin at that.. I see a couple of other things i need to fix also. I am gonna take it back off the wiki for now....

    PLEASE!!! anymore feedback on the theme is really really really wanted. I have posted this theme 3 times and this is only my second response.. A second set of eyes is always good when developing stuff.

    Thanks for the feedback GameDudeX.
  • alright.. I think I have cleaned up my messes..

    second set of eyes please.. anyone..

  • It's looking nice and cleaned up now and such a better job on the centering.

    What method are you using for your rounded corners (i'm too lazy right now to look at your code)? It seems like it could use some anti-aliasing.
  • I am trying to find a better way to do the rounded corners.. right now it is just
    -moz-radius-bottom: 10px

    I found this the other day
    curveycorners.net

    but I dont want to have scriptaculous, jquery and cruvey corners javascript. trying to load on every page and I also dont want to use images for it either.. but i guess I am sutbborn.
  • Alright.. I re-released the theme on the Wiki.

    Info about the theme.

    The sidebar is entirely customizeable. It used the Zenphto context (Index, Album, Image) to decide which content to display.

    It shows:
    Number of comments in a gallery
    Number of Photo in a gallery

    Sliding Drop down comments
    "Lightbox" type effect for posting comments

    Image navigation with next/previous Image preview (kinda flickr like(atleast that was what I was kinda going for)).

    Included my own file chili-functions.php which contain functions I created which you can call or not call in this theme or your own theme.
  • Sweet! I'll give it a try when I get home.
