Forums / Cotonti / Development / New design crowdfunding

Some of you may know that we're working on new default themes for Cotonti based on Twitter Bootstrap 3. Our CMS will look differently in one of the following releases.

Admin theme is mostly complete by now, but the following is still TODO:

• Add some required features to Cotonti core.
• Visual facelift.

As for the default site theme, we have the basic templates, but there are more things TODO:

• New logo and colour scheme.
• Unique site header.
• Contents, blocks and plugins udpate to fit current needs.
• Customized design for basic components http://getbootstrap.com/components/.

If we don't do it, every new Cotonti site will look like thousands of other Bootstrap-based sites.

We've asked our friends from http://486made.me to help us with new design stuff. Those guys are not from U.S./E.U., so they can't accept money from Cotonti's PayPal donations account. That's why we've added InterKassa payment method to http://www.cotonti.com/donate. So if you want to support this project, you can donate a small sum using InterKassa and your credit card (don't forget to switch InterKassa language to English).

Our goal is $300-500. We don't have a true Crowdfunding plugin to track progress, so I'll make weekly reports in this topic.

As soon as we have some sketches, we'll show them here. But don't expect anything beyond perfect. We need a new modern and attractive theme, not a pure perfection of all time.

Thanks!
