General Information

I created this layout for a friend of mine who wanted a personal website done. Since I did create the layout for free and I gained his permission; I am hereby releasing this template to the world for free use through the use of the Creative Commons and Wauchi Download Agreement License. This theme is a xhtml and css valid, dark web2.0 style theme. It was created for the purpose of attracting and keeping audience. It uses a lengthy Cascading Style Sheet that causes all of the effects. It was created specifically to make the website load faster at the same time giving the effects of a fully image powered site. Hope you enjoy this layout.

What's up with the header?

When I first created this layout, I used a very specific header that I cannot share with you all because my friend is using it for his site. So instead I used this very basic, simple to customize header. If you don't like the header, I coded the header portion in a way that you can put your own text. Something like a nice stanza from a poem will make it look nice. If you don't want something like that, then you are free to use any type of header you wish. Be creative and let your imagination run wild. Create something unique, something that will show your skills. If you don't want to, I attached an editable .psd and .png file for the header. ENJOY!

Compatibility and Process

This entire layout was created using Macromedia (now known as Adobe ) Dreamweaver and Fireworks. I have Studio 8 installed on my computer so those who uses Photoshop or older version of the software I used may not find the same patterns/textures.

When I was designing and coding the layout, I kept on previewing my process in both Internet Explorer 7 and Mozilla Firefox 2. I have not yet tested it on any other browsers but it should not be of a problem. The functions are very simple and its coded in CSS which majority of the browsers are focusing on now. There are no transparent images so you should not get any defected images with pixelish background.

Rules of Use

You can edit any image you wish and modify any code you want. Due to the fact that this template is free, we require you that you leave our copyright as it is. If you would like to remove the copyright notice, you can purchase the copyright removal document from Live World Studio for a small fee of $5.00 (USD). You can purchase the copyright document by contacting our sales department found on this board.

What's Included?

Almost all of the images are saved in editable Macromedia Fireworks file (.PNG). I have also included two versions of the header. One is saved in editable Macromedia Fireworks (.PNG) format and the other is in Adobe Photoshop (.PSD). I recommend that all users save the final extension in .PNG format because this will put forth the best quality of the image. Otherwise the blending from the dark grey to the black color will end up appearing Dark Sage Book distorted.

Do you have this coded for WordPress?

Aha found the wordpress file. The stylesheet is a bit different but the layout looks the same (at least it should). I really don't have a demo of the wordpress file but here is a demo of someone that has used the layout: Samir Saad | Personal Website . He told me he loved it but I have never really seen him update his site much. If you want to download the layout please view the link below.
