9th Design of 11 Completed - styleshout-brightsideoflife

I've completed the 9th design of my 11 design campaign, styleshout-brightsideoflife, which can be seen on demo.mojoportal.com. Of course since its a public demo site, someone may come along and change it, but you can change it back or checkout the different skins by (key icon) Administration Menu > Site Settings.

This will be in svn trunk later today for developers and will be in the next release of mojoPortal for everyone else, hopefully available sometime this weekend.

8th Design of 11 Completed - snop-plasticboy-reflection

I've now completed 11 skins based on 8 designs of my 10 design campaign. The newest is snop-plasticboy-reflection, which can currently be seen on demo.mojoportal.com. Of course since its a public demo site, someone may come along and change it, but you can change it back or checkout the different skins by (key icon) Administration Menu > Site Settings.

A few of the designs I've made alternate versions of which accounts for 11 skins so far. I really only need 2 more designs to meet my original goal but I've decided to do 1 extra design. The 3 remaining designs will actually result in 6 more skins. These are the designs I've chosen to complete this skinning campaign:

styleshout-brightsideoflife
styleshout-citrusisland and  styleshout-stylevantage (which I consider as variations on the same design)
styleshout-refresh, styleshout-envision, and styleshout-coolwater, which are all variations on the same design in my opinion.

Hopefully, I can complete all of these by sometime this weekend and then ship a new release with all these new skins.

7th Skin of 10 Completed andreasviklund-02

I've completed the 7th skin of my 10 skin campaign, andreasviklund-02, which can be seen on demo.mojoportal.com. Of course since its a public demo site, someone may come along and change it, but you can change it back or checkout the different skins by (key icon) Administration Menu > Site Settings.

Actually I made 2 skins from this design and named the second one andreasviklund-02-alt1. The interesting thing about this skin is that it has 2 levels of tabbed menus and then a vertical menu for any pages deeper than that. In my alt1 version I took it a step further and used 3 levels of tabs and then a vertical menu to show anything deeper. This screen shot shows the alt version with 3 levels of tabs and a vertical menu for pages below that.

This will be available in svn trunk later today for developers and will be in the next release of mojoPortal for everyone else.

In my previous post I said was going to work on the styleshout skins next but I saw this one and decided to do it first.

4th and 5th Skins of 10 Completed

I've completed the 4th and 5th skins of my 10 skin campaign, mitchinson-business3, and viktorpersson-thehobbit.

You can see these on demo.mojoportal.com, currently its showing viktorpersson-thehobbit which I made a little wider than the original design and also improvised on a workable menu design.

Of course since its a public demo site, someone may come along and change it, but you can change it back or checkout the different skins, by (key icon) Administration Menu > Site Settings.

This will be available in svn trunk later today for developers and will be in the next release of mojoPortal for everyone else.

So I'm halfway finished with my campaign to make 10 new good looking skins!

I think next I will implement skins using styleshout-stylevantage, and styleshout-citrusisland.
