A quick thank you to Rhuk of RocketTheme.com for developing the GPL released template Novus. We choose Novus as the template to launch our Joomla based site as it looked nice and was a good starting point to develop upon.

Novus is a new FREE Joomla template released under the GNU/GPL license. Novus features a clean and professional design that is incredibly lightweight and fast loading. Novus is a perfect template for any professional or business based website and includes a multitude of features including a tableless fully CSS layout, built in Splitmenu, 11 module positions, Adobe Fireworks Source PNG file for making your own graphic modifications, cross browser compatibility, and much more.

Our modification of this template included working in the frizbee guys into the header, reverse the layout to a right sidebar style (original Novus is left sidebar), edit some CSS and template code to remove elements from the page display (stuff we didn't need), and tweak some content placement blocks and styles.
