Accompanying the template release, is a new version of RokStories with a new layout option, Showcase Tabs. This is demoed above, and places the content title, a label, and an automatically generated thumbnail in the tabs, whilst displaying the main image full width.

RokContentRotator makes a return with template specific styling for the Nebulae template. The module is perfect for displaying content items in a dynamic fashion, using the vertically stacked tab items. The module is styled for multiple positions and module suffixes.

The template, the Gantry Framework, and all used modules, components or plugins are available in the RocketTheme downloader. There are two template packages, a standalone and a bundle build. Use the Bundle if Gantry has not already been installed, and vice versa.

Sources are provided, inclusive of fonts, in the download for Nebulae. You will need Adobe® Fireworks CS3 or later, in order to take full advantage of the editable and layered source PNGs that we offer. Instructions on how to modify the logo are provided in the tutorial section.
