Firstly, great template... I've been looking for something like this for AGES!

It seems the bottom image of the main window (right-bottom.png) has slightly different transparency than the rest of the main window, thus, if I look at it at the correct angle on my TFT monitor, I see a line at the bottom of the main window. This does not happen at the top or on the sidebars... (check the site demo with img5 style)

There seems to be no "user2" area to publish in, but it is included on the templateDetails.xml positions. Also "breadcrumb", "footer" & "syndicate" are on the list of positions, but not in the template.

With regards to positions, perhaps changing "user5" to "top", making a "content-top" (instead of current "top") and "content-bottom" (instead of current "user3")

On the left sidebar making "user1" above "left", "user3" below

On the right sidebar making "user2" above "right", "user4" below

Overall this gives the already great template some more uniform structure, and more options for the users to publish modules to.

Just some thoughts... keep up the good work!

Thanks for the feedback! Some great suggestions - and also great timing!

We're actually in the process of rebuilding Transparent Bliss right now and should have it up around the end of the week or early next.

We'll be sure to take heed of your suggestions, and have also made a few improvements ourselves - this time we'll provide a template style switcher module so you can publish your style changer icons in any module position :)

The original transparent bliss template was coded in a bit of a rush between client deadlines - we always wanted to improve upon it and this week we have made some time to do it!

Great stuff! I perhaps have a few more suggestions that might be useful. I'm still getting to know the template as it is...

in index.php stuff like:
Code:

href=\"".$this->baseurl."/templates/ transparent_bliss_1.5/"

becomes
Code:

href=\"".$this->baseurl."/templates/".$this- >template."/

and
Code:

href="<?php echo $this->baseurl ?>/templates/ transparent_bliss_1.5/

becomes
Code:

href="<?php echo $this->baseurl ?>/templates/<? php echo $this->template ?>/

By removing the name from the urls we could create multiple templates and thus use different background versions for different sections of a website with minimal editing...

I know deadlines sometimes have a way of making nice looking code turn ugly so long as it works!
