CosCulture Stacks Bundle For RapidWeaver

Makes creating content-rich web sites as easy and convenient as possible.
This CosCulture Bundle* is available through April 15th –
Visit The ZOTshop!
Weekend ZOT Preview Below…

Normally: $102.40

ZOT Price: $41.00

Click to MacZOT



The CosCulture MacZot Stacks Bundle contains a set of Stacks for RapidWeaver that will assist you in creating more interactive web sites. The goal is to make creating content-rich web sites as easy and convenient as possible. *But what if you’ve purchased the previous CosCulture MacZot Bundle in 2011? See the Add-on Zot below…

Fabo Stacks – Facebook Stacks
The set of Fabo Stacks lets you easily place Facebook plugins on your site. The Facebook plugins include:

  • Facebook Comments
  • Facebook Like Button
  • Facebook Like Box
  • Facebook Recommendations
  • Facebook Activity
  • Facebook Live Stream

With these stacks, it becomes very simple to utilize the power of Facebook on your own sites!

PowerTweet Stacks
Reach out to your users with the power of Twitter.

PowerTweet Stacks consist of 2 stacks that let you quickly bring your Twitter presence to your web pages.

Just drag-and-drop the PowerTweet Stacks, enter your Twitter username, and you’re ready to go.

Tipsy Stack
Tooltips can let you include more information on your web pages without making your web pages look cluttered. They can also provide hints, or little nuggets of information to your visitors.

Traditionally, tooltips have always looked boring, and adding good-looking tooltips to your web pages can be a hassle. With the Tipsy Stack, you can now easily place tooltips that look great right on your page. No more messing with CSS.

Notifications Stack
The Notification Stack lets you show a message in a Growl-like style when a web page loads, or when a user clicks a link.

We’ve all encountered Growl notifications when using our Macs. The Notification stack gets the message across, looks good and does not come across as obstrusive.

DragZone Stack
If you’ve used the iGoogle web site, you’ll have noticed that the page content are all placed inside boxes which can be moved around or minimized.

Now you can do the same for your RapidWeaver-made site, using the DragZone stack. It’s really easy to use.

This is great if you want to empower your site visitors to reorganize the content in a way that flows best for them. It’s all about user experience!

Collapsible Stack
Sometimes, you want to have content that can be hidden, or collapsed, on demand. With Collapsible Stack, content can be collapsed on the web page, giving your page a more structured and cleaner look.

Easy Slideshow Stack
With this stack, it becomes really easy to create your own image slideshow on your web pages. Just drag and drop.

No flash needed or used.

Image Roundabout Stack
You can create a carousel of images by drag and drop. Each image can then be linked to a web page.

When a background image is clicked, it will be rotated to become the forefront image. Clicking on the image at the front will then bring the user to the web page you’ve linked.

This makes for a spiffy-looking form of navigation, or it can serve as a mini gallery.

Menu Stacks
Every theme comes with menus. But what if you want to create your own?

Menu Stacks allow you to make your own dropdown menus which need not conform to your site structure. You can specify what pages you want to add to the Menu Stacks; creating customized menus has never been easier!



But what if you’ve purchased the previous CosCulture MacZot Bundle in 2011?

There’ve been a few stacks released since then, and you can get these stacks at a special CosCulture MacZot price again this time.
These stacks are:
- PowerTweet Stacks
- Collapsible Stack
- Tipsy Stack

The retail price for all 3 stacks is USD 27.50, but you can get them at the special MacZot price of USD 13.75

Want it? Visit The ZOTshop!


Requirements

  • RapidWeaver 4 or 5
  • Stacks (YourHead’s Rapidweaver Plugin)

ZOT Price: $22.49

Click to MacZOT Buy 1 item

MouserWorks makes unique themes for Rapidweaver.

Adagio, Bookshelf, Duo, Fresco and the new Retro Themes are $68.75
separately, or will be available soon in a new Theme Bundle for $44.99.
MouserWorks is offering this bundle before it is released at 1/2 off
the discounted bundle price!

All Themes come with basic options for Width, Sidebar placement, etc.
Many of the themes feature extra options you expect from RW themes,
such as ExtraContent, prettyPhoto for fullscreen slideshows  and
@fontface fonts
[features vary per theme, check specs for each].


The Retro Bundle includes 5 Themes:

  • Adagio takes the
    Sidebar Area and turns it into a full-fledged content area. Normally
    the Sidebar Area in the Page Inspector puts content on the side of your
    main text, but Adagio moves it to its own area at the top of the page.
    This opens up a whole new range of possibilities. Features: Adjustable
    Navigation in Sidebar or Header, @fontface Fonts.
  • Bookshelf contains
    many customizations, a large number of color choices, and amost any
    element on the page can have its color changed. Features: Uder
    replaceable Header Images, Navigation can be located in the Sidebar or
    Header, 2 extraContent Areas.
  • Duo is based on a
    Two-Column layout that is auto expanding, meaning that the column
    backgrounds will always be the same height, whether the Sidebar or
    Content area. The Sidebar Area becomes part of your page, especially
    with a lot of content, instead of just a Navigation area, since it
    stretches along with the Content Area. Features: @fontace Fonts,extraContent in the Footer.
  • Fresco contains a
    variety of Headers, along with the option to have a Header Slideshow.
    Want to use your own images? In Rapidweaver 5, it is as simple as

    Resource Header Option. And in RW4 you can use RWMultiTool to change
    the headers or drag a snippet into the Page Inspector. Features:
    prettyPhoto,@fontface Fonts.
  • Retro offers a
    variety of Header, Background, Font, Layout, Width and Color options to
    customize your site. Header Images included, along with the

And the winner is…

image meteor_brown.jpg by frankxray

We put our eyes on the 200+ entries over this weekend. We were blown away by the creativity present in all the entries, from 3-year-olds raw creativity to what look like professional artists.

Alas, we had to choose and as we narrowed it down, we allowed the original artist, Mike Biskup, to choose the winner. He had this to say,

"So Incredible!

It’s so fun to see all these works of art. We all made lists of our favorites. We liked different ones! Some blew us away; some freaked us out; some made us laugh; some made us cry.

I liked Frank X Ray, Barney6, Bruner, and a last-minute entry from Paeten_Dykstra-Deschenne (age 6). I was forced to narrow down my list of 15 favorites.

In the end, the folks at MacZOT! let me decide, so Frank X Ray Wins the iPod Nano and 12 free ZOTS! during 2007!

We definitely could have had a few different categories for kids, hand-colored, far-out, etc. Version 2.0 of ColorZOT is going to be amazing."

 

We’ve all been very inspired by this project and have many new ideas for the new year. Thank you very much for bringing such a quantity of creative juice to this little end-of-the-year project.

We’ll move this whole project to its own space on MacZOT. Follow it and continue to participate. Invite your friends to view the online gallery of all the entries of the ColorZOT 1.0 Coloring Contest. Register here if you want updates to this and more ColorZOT contests:
