NOTICE: The next most recent » » DOWNLOAD UPDATE IS HERE « « This download version is 1.6.8-beta. It provides several new options (close to 50 total now) in response to many of the feedback questions. Some of the new options include the ability to:

• Disable the display of the Site Title in the Header/Masthead Area.

I have not added all the documentation for the new options; and have not updated the changelog file. I hope to get final testing completed soon; and submit it to the WordPress Repository for download there. In the interim, you can download it here and provide FEEDBACK on the Feedback Page.

This theme comes pre-loaded with numerous options and a easy to use Admin Panel. There are several options on this theme which other themes are charging for. Even though I am not charging for this theme, please feel free to make a donation if you would like. With that being said, I also plan to release a paid version of this theme in the near future. The paid version will include more options, including a slider with FX effects; and a very robust Admin Panel to administer those options.

I am also considering making it easier to administer the approximately three dozen custom fields that are used on some of the custom template pages with this theme. Adding custom fields to pages are not too terribly difficult. However, it is much more user friendly and minimizes end-user frustration if they do not have to know what each of the custom fields are and know where to add them … and make sure each of them are spelled correctly, with proper use of case and punctuation.

The paid version of this theme will be made available for download on this site, as soon as it is ready for distribution.

Work on the Paid Version of this theme has been put on hold, due to lack of time to work on my own themes.
