    I’m not sure that template is open source or not copyrighted. This template’s layout is similar. We could modify it to appear the same without copying their codes. I started changing it by removing the top part and increase the size of the left panel. I also copied the demo pages into your site so you could see how various pages look like.

    I got the basic layout to resemble to the one you want. Note that the bottom panel is needed for credits and miscellaneous navigation. The next step is for you to come up with an image for the left column.

    Don’t forget the logo too. Right now I’m using the one from your signature. If you want a different one you can request one from here. Make sure to read the sticky and help out around here if you can as this is a give and take community.:D

    Got it!

    Note that the watermark (w-CMS) will be removed upon acceptance of the logo. Don’t worry about copyright. The original design is from a good friend of mine. I’m sure he has no problem of me using it.

    Thanks guys for the feedback. I implemented the logo into the page and it looks awesome if I don’t say so myself:

    I’m guessing I will be joining in next time when someone requests a logo customization.

    Nice try Mr. ishkey. Forest specifies the logo to be a bamboo trunk type. Not bad though.

    Hey Forest, don’t worry about copyright. I have made extensive modification to the original. No one will see that it is a copy.

    Hope you realize that I was just kidding around. On a more serious note, ishey design looks real nice to me. Maybe you could use something like that. Please take your time. Work before play.

    Looks like the drawing bug has bit tomw - no turning back now.

    I know 1970Forest wants something with his Bamboo tablet and a tree like one of the trees in avatar, which is beyond my imagination but I have to post up the one I did earlier, only this time with the words etched into the tree, well it kinda looks like it, only because it took me this long to figure it out. (just doing a Forest thing):ROFLMAO:
