A sharp looking template built for events, conferences as well as any type of presentation for your app or service. Ibento comes with a customisable single page layout, custom colour variations, background video section, parallax views, and cutting edge animated transitions that leave a memorable impression.

Built and optimized for content-heavy websites like news portals and online magazines, Kiji comes with a rich feature set including a smart layout system, multiple ways to present your content, a dynamic mega menu and custom colours for each section of your content.

The community of K2 has spoken through the poll I got up yesterday on the frontpage of the K2 Community website. An email was previously sent to all our members letting them know of this poll, as well as the reasons we chose to resolve into such a poll.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: A poll is now setup in the K2 Community for people to voice their opinion more properly

First, some facts...

Joomla 1.6's life cycle is very short. Just 6 months. By July 2011, the Joomla team will end development and proceed to releasing Joomla v1.7.

This is very disturbing for many big projects like K2, considering all the big changes that 1.6 has introduced in its framework (language files, content elements, classes, functions, ACL etc. etc.) and the unnecessary workload added (see language files going back to Joomla 1.0 days), especially for free extensions like K2, Virtuemart and many more...

Many developers have expressed doubts about 1.6. Jen Kramer also nailed it in her recent blog post: Joomla 1.6 and Beyond: Should I upgrade? Should I build my new sites in it?

So did Andy Miller of RocketTheme fame on: Should I upgrade to Joomla 1.6?

Back to the title of this post...

Key Features

Hand-crafted for K2

K2 is a first-class citizen in all our Joomla templates. We don't just provide CSS styling for K2, we actually build customized K2 template override sets to match our designs.

Responsive

All our Joomla templates are built to be all-responsive - so they are desktop, tablet & mobile friendly out of the box.

No Nonsense Frameworks

Our Joomla templates are simple to edit, using Joomla's built-in override editor. No need to re-invent the wheel.

Fast & Lightweight

Our templates follow a simplistic approach: we don't use dozens of CSS and JS files. Instead, we only use 1 CSS file as base (2 if you choose to use K2), 1 CSS file for any custom styling you wish to add (custom.css) and just 2 JS files (1 for common libraries & 1 for the applied behaviour). This makes all our Joomla templates lightning fast to load & render on the browser.

Smooth Updates

We provide template upgrade packages along with regular template packages and quick-start Joomla packages. When we need to update the core code of our templates, we leave the main template file (index.php) and custom.css (the files you are most likely to edit) untouched.

Quick-start packages for Joomla

Our templates are distributed standalone or as "Quickstart" packages. The "Quickstart" packages are essentially the demo site for each template. That way you can get started with one of our templates in no time, only adding the changes you wish so you can adapt our design to your needs.

Built for Joomla

Joomla is the most flexible and easy to customize CMS for both newbies and experienced users. We currently support the latest Joomla 3.x versions.

Adobe Photoshop Sources

All our Joomla templates come with full Adobe Photoshop (PSD) source files for you to edit as you wish.
