Why JoomlaPraise?

What makes us a different Joomla! club?

At JoomlaPraise we've always focused on elegantly lightweight Joomla! templates that are both easy to customize and very aware of Joomla's versatility. We approach each theme from an industry's needs, and apply design principles to suit it. While some clubs seem to focus on cramming in as much JavaScript, rounded corners, and transparencies as possible, we sprinkle in these "features" with moderation and care.

We're not just templates at JoomlaPraise. We develop Projectfork, the most powerful (free/gpl) project manager in Joomla! Projectfork has its own framework, capable of Projectfork themes and extensions that make the featureset limitless. Our Projectfork PowerPack is a collection of Projectfork themes and extensions, along with priority support.

At JoomlaPraise, we've also championed the Joomla! administrator template initiative. Our first admin template was AdminPraise, which was the first Joomla! admin template to totally change the interface, and was also optimized for the iPhone. The next evolution, AdminPraise2 combined lessons learned and new radical interface ideas to produce the most powerful and customizable Joomla! admin template to date. We've recently launched AdminPraise Lite, a totally free & GPL admin template that takes the best features from the previous two and and is totally optimized for speed and usability.

We've created a varied assortment of useful Joomla! extensions for everything from menu systems and article sliders to PraiseFolio, a powerfully simple portfolio component.

Lately, JoomlaPraise has made quite a name for being the most collaborative Joomla! club. We work hand-in-hand with all the most popular extension developers and create templates specifically designed for their functionality with templates such as CommunityPraise, a JomSocial template. We're also recently taken Joomla! collaboration to a new level, and did a "template remix" with another club that shares our approach to templates, where we each remixed previous templates from each other to raise awareness of each club and reinforce the Joomla is a community.

Our latest Joomla! evolution is the introduction of many Joomla! coupons for every type of Joomla service imaginable. From templates and extensions to books and security. You can get these coupons, along with a ton of templates and extensions in our JP SuperBundle.

We're on a mission to become the most well rounded Joomla! offering on the block!

Where it all started

You might recognize us from the famous (or infamous) Joomla 1.5 Contest, our contest entry, which was named JoomlaPraise, and well received and spawned the idea for this club.
