A template for MODx based on the very popular "kubrick" theme from WordPress. You can see it in action at my website. -sD- ScottyDelicious http://www.scottydelicious.com

Very nice!
The "iPod" popup is a bit too narrow on my system; 1024x768, OS X 10.3, Firefox 1.0.7

I have updated this template. This version uses the standard "MenuBuilder" snippet included in MODx, and I feel it is a more accurate translation/port of the original WordPress template. This template, which I originally ported for "Etomite 0.6" can be viewd at http://www.scottydelicious.com/kubrick/regards -sD- scotty Delicious

It seems that there is a problem on your web site... The menu and box does not fit into the template, it overflows on the right (try it with IE)

thanks. I don't have access to IE, theys stopped developing for Mac, and I don't touch windows personal confusers. I will check into that, and again, thanks for the feedback. If you have a chance, get over to http://www.getfirefox.com as soon as you can. later -sD-

If your machine is powerful enough, try Bochs http://bochs.sourceforge.net/. It works great, but this old Powerbook is too slow and deficient in memory to handle it.

It works great, but this old Powerbook is too slow and deficient in memory to handle it. I did try bochs at one time, but I don't own a copy of windows, and my concience forbids me to BitTorrent a copy of Windows, I do have a friend with a windows based PC (yes, only one of my friends on Win), so I might just have him bring his laptop here and I can make changes until it looks right. Multi browser checking is tough business. I wish they all worked the same. thanks, oh and if people get sick of websites looking horible in their browser, and we webdesigners stop being such sissies with workarounds for IE and just STICK TO WEB STANDARDS (w3.org), then those people wouldn't use IE anymore and we wouldn't have issues. There... Problem solved. It is our fault as webdesigners that IE which is such a piece of trash, continues to be used. We need to change our thinking. The template looks fine in FireFox, Safari, Camino, OmniBrowser, Shiira, Deer Park, and Mozilla, but looks funny in IE. Hmmm... The problem is the template or...? -sD- scotty Delicious

You can find somebody with an old copy they have upgraded from and aren't using any more, or somebody bought a computer with Windows bundled and didn't use it (took it off and put on Linux, for example; I did that all the time before I went Mac). It is quite legal, even if MS doesn't like it. It's called "the doctrine of first sale" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-sale_doctrine, and it's been upheld many times (depending on which district you live in! Texas and California have both ruled for this, Missouri against.). The only reason E-bay takes them off is because MS threatens with their lawyers, and E-bay doesn't want to go through the hassle. Easier to take the sales off than to pay $$$ in court to probably win a lawsuit. MS has lots more money than E-bay.

lol
The harsh reality is that IE Win dominates the market and comes preinstalled on the majority of computers. Lots of folks won't ever replace something unless it comes down in Windows Update. At least they're finally getting the message and it should be significantly better with IE7. They've got my buddy John Gallant (positioniseverything.net) on the IE7 beta review team now, so that's a very good thing.
