Crate is one our most visually
appealing RapidWeaver
theme, to date. It provides a slick, web 2.0
look with clean stylings. It is great for small
businesses, blogs, personal sites, portfolios
and much more.
The
basics
Here is a quick list of some of the options found in the Crate theme.

Backgrounds [NEW]
We have added a large variety of background images and patterns to Crate's options. These new backgrounds show through all of the transparent areas of the site, even in Internet Explorer 6. To get this to work with IE 6 we have implemented some workarounds and javascript.
Title bar [NEW]
In addition to great new backgrounds and increased compatibility in Internet Explorer 6, we've updated and added to the title bar variations. It is now possible to have a semi transparent title bar as well as to affix it to the top of the site.
Styles
In addition to the theme variations listed above, Crate also makes it easy to customize your site's look via the color picker without ever touching any CSS or HTML code.
To take things a step further, and make things even easier, we've also included several built-in, pre-setup theme styles.
Fonts
To help you set the tone of your site, we have included 2 font style variations — a san serif and a serif font style.
Blog bling
We've included 4 variations of decorative blog icons to help give your blog a more stylized, professional look.
Blog archive
We give you the option to turn off the archives, categories, tag cloud and feeds on a page-by-page basis.

Crate integrates RapidWeaver 3.6's new color picker and theme styles. Using the picker you can easily edit the colors on your site. All without ever touching any code!
Crate provides you with the building blocks of success. We've created, and imbedded into the theme, some great little library items which you can use through Blocks 3.0. When creating a Blocks page using our Crate theme, simply click on the Library icon and you'll be presented with a variety of extras.
Everything from simple badges and graphics to MP3 players and Digg buttons. Drag the item from the library onto your Blocks page and viola! You can then edit that block's options, if it has any, by clicking the Smart Info icon. Brilliantly simple and quite powerful.
RapidBlog
In addition to the Blocks library items, we have also included stylings within the theme's code to help in beautifying your blog comments if you're using Loghound's RapidBlog plug-in. This helps in making your inline comments meld with your site and to look nice and stylized.
