[Release] Maple Simplicity (PwnedCMS - Reskin)

[Rinoku]

Well I never really liked the default design of PwnedCMS, so with Evolized's PSD design I decided to make a re-skin so that other users who share my opinion have an alternative option.

(Feel free to give pointers on what I could improve on, for future developments.) - It's my first time doing a re-skin so I know I could do better.

Good job 'Boy

Disappointing that all you did was swap out some images and change some values in the CSS.
This is 2013. Use HTML5, get rid of your table layout, and use some CSS3 to do your body, instead of using two images to create the body. I get that this is a "reskin," but I expected to see more effort in this.

Thanks for the pointers, and exactly like you said "This is a reskin" so I didn't see the need to revamp the CMS entirely but rather just provide a more appealing appearance for those of which who would like to use PwnedCMS. (It looks better than the original design, in my opinion). Also if I wished to do everything you had suggested I would have much rather just coded Evolized's design entirely from the ground up. Instead of using PwnedCMS as a base, if you happen to not like it then simply don't use it.

I'm aware it's not the best, and I never claimed it was (again it is my first time) - so if you wish to release your version with more effort then be my guest.

Understandable. I hope you get some time to code this from the ground up. It's a nice design to do from scratch!

I guess it's alright for your first time, however as Greenelfx said, it would've looked much nicer if done from the ground up.

Anyways, if no one has released a template for the design. I'll code it myself and release it after I finish a site for Maple Switch.

Banner blends in with the bg to much, but hopefully one of the GFX can fix it.

It's okay. The background is a bit plain, so you should probably make it more vivid and attractive. To be frank, there's a lot that needs to be worked on this, but I'm glad you are trying. Many people over in the Maple Java Community are leechers with very few actually attemping to write lines of code.
