After such a long time in development we are very happy to be able to release the Bravado theme to the RapidWeaver community.
The Bravado theme is a beautiful theme from top to bottom and also has a mountain of variations that allow you to have total control over the look of your website.
Here are some of the features of the Bravado theme:

• 10 Very appealing Theme Styles using popular colour schemes from the Kuler website
• Built in RapidSearch search bar that can be turned on or off on a “per page” basis
• Turn the logo on or off on a per page basis
• Really neat implementation of the header along with some really cool semi-transparent header effects
• 4 Extra Content areas (1. header area 2. In the Sidebar above the sub-navigation 3. In the content area below the main content 4. In the footer area)
• Colour Picker options for nearly every variation
• Browser compatibility
• Some really cool snippets to help you take advantage of the Extra Content containers. Including one that will help you create the cool navigation list that I have at the bottom of the page on the DEMO site
• ... and so much more

Please take a few minutes to navigate through the demo site to get a feel for how the Bravado theme will work.

As always, I want to thank each of you who have supported us through the years. It is an absolute joy to develop themes for the RapidWeaver community.

A few months ago we announced that we had a new theme in the works for RapidWeaver called “Bravado”. After we made the announcement we ran into a couple of little problems that prevented us from releasing the theme. We then started working on a couple of updates and also the “Opaque” theme. However, we did not forget about Bravado and are happy to report that the Bravado theme should be ready to go soon.

We are very excited about this particular theme as it offers another unique layout and design for RapidWeaver. Bravado will be billed as a professional level design that will be useful for any type of website.
Stay tuned for more information

When our network of websites were in need of a better solution that we were currently using we began to look for a hosting company with a few specific criteria that had to be met.
Because there are so many similarities in hosting companies we decided that we would begin by looking for things that separated companies from each other. Here is what we looked for in a new hosting company:

• We wanted a company that was well established but not a huge company - In our experience the large hosting companies tend to treat their customers like a number and seemingly could care less about you or your business

• We wanted a company where we could get hold of a technician quickly and easily
• We wanted a company that offered an affordable pricing structure
• We wanted a company that we could recommend to others
• And most importantly we wanted a company that we could grow our business with

We finally settled on a VPS solution from FazeWire. What we found in FazeWire is all of the above and more. Not only do they conduct themselves in a professional manner you get the feeling that they want our business to succeed.

After years of bouncing around from hosting provider to hosting provider I am finally able to happily recommend one without reservation.
If you are in need of a better hosting solution than you currently have .... consider FazeWire, you will not regret it.
