Administrators Thanked: 263 times	It is one of conditions that all the skins will be available for Download after the compo. Added 2 days later: Latest update: We decided that it is better to use live demos for the web poll rather than "try-it-yourself" downloads. The web poll starts tomorrow, no delays. May the Source be with you!

Team	I'm happy to present you with my newest template, SymiSun* 03. You can see live sample here. And some screenshots from the skin: While following a high work load, I was trying to finish this template, which was just a photoshop design until last Sunday. The final version of the XHTML/CSS template is ready, though I wasn't able to come up with a complete Cotonti skin, as I was away from skin development for over a year. This means, I have worked on several tpl files, but certainly not all of them. So, the skin version is really far from perfect. Anyway, this is my effort and I hope you like it. I said in a previous post that I'm not here for the money; I want to prove that. Thus, if I get any of the top 3 places in the public vote, I'll be donating the money back to Cotonti. I'd really want to work more on the skin, but at the moment there is no time and I'm also tired. And since today is my birthday, I decided to quit working after 8 straight hours and relax by watching some football. I will be resuming my work on the skin later anyway, win or lose... until I'm pleased with the final outcome and ready for actual release. It's not the hours you put in, but what you put in the hours.

Contributors Thanked: 2 times	Dont even with the delays, it is still not enough time for all that meant. Here is my work «Veronese» for the contest. This is not the final version, but the rules required to provide, so give, but the period of voting will be conducted. In any case, work was done knowingly. All thanks, all good luck. Login: demo Pass: demo
