seyDesign and Med-Designs bring back RetroFilm

RetroFilm UltimateIt recently came to our attention that Med-Designs had closed up shop. Being one of the original RapidWeaver theme developers, Med-Designs has been one of those names you've gotten used to seeing in RapidWeaver circles, so you can imagine our surprise to see that kind of institution shutting it's doors.

I promptly contacted Scott of Med-Designs and asked him what he had planned for his theme library. Before long we had struck up a deal to bring the works over to seyDesign.com and breath some new life into them. So it is with great pleasure and a certain amount honor to bring you the legendary theme, RetroFilm

RetroFilm, a highly stylized RapidWeaver theme from Med-Designs gives you the sense you are looking at a salvaged bit 35 mm "Safety" film. For the movie buffs, this old stock of a theme should fit your movie blogs or review sites just fine. Tickets please!

RetroFilm has been totally reworked to bring it up to date with RapidWeaver 4 and has also had a few feature enhancements. We've made all of the headers and footers RWmultitool. We have also added the much asked for width feature, which is fully compatible with all headers and footers. Enjoy this old theme like it's new all over again.

Updates at a glance:

  • upgraded to RapidWeaver 4 compatibility
  • refined code to validate
  • added Info.plist for end user version tracking
  • added release.txt for developer bug tracking
  • added IE 6 png transparency support
  • added RWmultitool ready headers and footers
  • added fully functional width options
  • refined color picker features
  • added large preview image
  • updated small preview image
  • added keywords
  • and much, much more...
