Gallery3:Themes:clean canvas

From Gallery Codex

Clean Canvas theme

  • This is thought to be a color neutral and clean, simple but elegant theme for Gallery 3.
  • A small thank you to the community behind. Some compromise were to be made with Internet Explorer compatibility, though.
  • Cool 3D effects.
  • Thanks to hukoeth for darkening the theme.

Screen shot

Features

  • makes use of CSS3 features (box shadows, round corners)
  • fixed width and variable width
  • lighter and dark version
  • background with some canvas like structure to make it easy to look at
  • looks best in browsers that already support CSS3 or have an alternative for the features used (all recent browsers do that: Firefox 3.5+, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer 9.0+, Safari 4+, Opera 10+)
  • some new icons
  • custom themeroller theme

Installation

  • Download the theme from the link above and extract to your themes directory.
  • Admin -> Appearance -> Theme choice. Choose the theme.
  • Admin -> Appearance -> Theme options. Select the options you like

Notes

  • Tested with Google Chrome 5.0, Firefox 3.6, Opera 10.5, Safari, Internet Explorer 9
  • should work with all modules the wind theme works with too (tested register, reCAPTCHA, image block, comments, all standard modules)

Customization

To un-hide the title and description:
Open the file themes/clean_canvas/css/dark/screen_candy.css and delete the following lines (starts around line 394)

    #g-info
    {
      display: none;
    }

Issues

  • Internet Explorer <= 8.0 does not support most of the features used, so it looks a bit odd there.
  • Internet Explorer has some layout problems with the mouse overs (fixed in 1.02 and later occurrence in 1.07)
  • Internet Explorer <= 8.0 text in context menus looks strange if over a picture
  • Video support not working correctly - *fixed* (with 1.03)
