Strokes! Personal Website Template

Sure. All the text is editable.

There should be a folder called ‘strokes_help’ in the downloaded ZIP , with a ‘index.html’ file inside. This should get you started. Please feel free to send me an e-mail if you need any help. My e-mail ID is included in the help file.

Yes, the PSD is included with the template. I can provide more help with editing if required. As for the Opera issue, there is a simple fix courtesy bigguszeddus in the comments.

I’m glad you like the template. Thanks!

The background is in fact an image, but the PSD is included in the template, so one can easily change the width and them make the necessary changes in the CSS .

The template was built before HTML5 was all the craze and therefore does not use any of the newer tags.

The background is an image, so resizing it should be straightforward using the included PSD file. If you need help making changes to the CSS , please feel free to send me a message from my profile page with the specific issue and I would be glad to help every way possible. Thanks!

Sure! The regular license allows you to use the template for one project in any way you like. You can change the background and pretty much anything else you want.

The template is pretty much all HTML & CSS with some jQuery functionality for the transitions, etc. If you can send me a message from my profile page at http://themeforest.net/user/abogawat/profile (or to the e-mail ID in the help file), I can try and help you with those over e-mail.

If you do not want the lightbox at all, you can disable it by commenting or deleting the tag under <!- Lightbox implementation -> in the HTML . In case you need something more specific, please send me a message (from my profile page or the e-mail ID in the template’s help doc) so that I can provide an appropriate solution. Thanks!

In that case, we will need to make some minor changes in the code. Could you please send me a message so that I can get back to you with the updates? Thanks!

The lightbox plugin I’ve used in the template doesn’t support videos, but I can help you switch to one that does. Matter of swapping out some markup in the HTML .

Thank you for your quick reply. I purchased the theme this evening. I’ll play around with it, is there a place I could find the code you mentioned about the video lightbox? Thanks.

Thanks, Tubaboy! Just send me a message from my profile page, or to the e-mail ID in the help document, and I’ll share the necessary details. If you have made some changes to the template, send me the files, so that I can guide you directly on it.

I’m using Cufon for font replacement, so that I can use the custom fonts for the navigation and some other elements. It was broken in IE9 for some reason, although it is fixed now. Was a matter of updating the JS file. Check out the preview now.

Sure Amanda! Just send me a mail from my profile page on themeforest or to the e-mail ID in the theme’s help file, and I’ll send you the background without the text (or with whatever else you want the text to read).

Please use the contact form at the bottom of my profile page at http://themeforest.net/user/abogawat to send me the URL of your site. My e-mail ID is also included in the help file that came as part of the template download.

You will need to reduce the font size of the text to make sure it fits in the available space. I can send you a modified version of the background with your name if you want. Just send me a message from the contact form my profile page at http://themeforest.net/user/abogawat so that I have your e-mail ID.

Adding more portfolio items should be possible, but there will be some minor CSS tweaking required to make that section scrollable. The lightbox script I’ve used is pretty basic, so to support videos, you might need to replace it with another jquery plugin that does.
