Here is such a template. It won't be to everybody's taste and it won't win any design competitions, but that's not the point. This template has been designed to meet three objectives:
- To show how much can be done with almost no effort by harnessing the power of the template_default and CSS
- To provide new users with a starting point that is as appealing as the classic template but doesn't have the headaches that are played out over and over again in this forum
- To be trivial to install
I refer to this as an ultra light template, because it consists of just 11 files, 8 of which are images. The other two are a stylesheet that does most of the work, the obligatory template_info.php file and the installation instructions. Yes folks, no code was harmed in the making of this template.
Tired of hearing me write (!!) go ahead and download the release package.
Finally, I want to give credit to the Dev Team for their vision in taking Zen Cart down its current path. It took me just two hours to put this template together (and I still consider myself to be barely past the newbie stage) - that it could be done this quickly was due to all the hard work being done by their core code and template_default.
An extra note, just to say that this template is designed for ZC v1.3+ I don't know what the results of trying to apply it to earlier versions might be, but I doubt they would be good.
