Spent A Little Bit Of Time Flattening Blesta.

I decided to give blesta a try.  I like it, and have flattened it's UI a bit.  It was about 40 minutes of work (took me forever to get the buttons to work) to get the theme done.

Of course, there's still a lot more that I could do, but I think this is pretty good for the amount of time it took.

 

Let me know what you think.

The button is moving on hover because of the margin being applied

.btn:hover {
display: inline;
margin: 13px 8px;
font-weight: normal;
text-align: center;
text-color: #FFF;
vertical-align: middle;
background-color: #1875D4;
height: 25px;
width: 200px;
cursor: pointer;
padding: 6px;
white-space: nowrap;
font-size: 10px;
line-height: 20px;
border-radius: 2px;
}

You might want to adjust the below CSS

.button_row .right_btn {
margin: 0 16px 0 0;
}

To

.button_row .right_btn, .button_row .right_btn:hover {
margin: 0 16px 0 0;
} 

Also the button is overlapping the border, this is because the parent element is 100% width + 25px padding. With the standard box model, this is over 100%. You could

  • Remove the float, add overflow:hidden or use another method to clear the floating children and set width to auto (or leave it out as auto is default)
  • Change the box model. This is a good introduction: http://css-tricks.com/box-sizing/
  • Remove the padding
.button_row {
float: left;
padding: 17px 25px 25px;
width: 100%;
}

The overflow is intentional, it gives the button a sort of banner look, which I like.  Thanks for the help with the button moving around.

 

The buttons overlapping like that looks awful, in my opinion. To a potential customer, it seems like a lazy designer left a site unfinished.
