About MacBlue:
Macblue is a heavily modified version of the Lemontwist template. It is a free Pligg template released by Yankidank, but I highly suggest that you donate if you use it otherwise I won't keep making free templates. The template is by far the most advanced theme I have ever produced for Pligg, it has a lot of interesting features that will be discussed below.
The template is currently being developed for the next Pligg version (9.9.6). MacBlue currently is designed to work with Pligg SVN revision 71 current as of September 1, 2008. Please DO NOT redistribute this template or any variation of it without getting my permission first.

Features:
This template changes the votebox color depending on whether the story is published or still upcoming. You will often see both colors on search result pages which makes it an easy way for users to find quality stories first when searching or browsing by tags. Below the published votebox it also shows how long the story has been published, letting users know how fresh it is.
NEW: When submitting a story, this template will help users choose tag keywords through an ajax auto-complete script. This script pulls keywords from a dictionary file stored at /templates/macblue/js/tag_data.js.
Similar to Lemontwist, this template doesn't display a sidebar on the Live and Submit pages. Instead it widens the content area to focus the user on the more important data (for the submit page) and give enough room for large amounts of data (in the case of Live). I also removed the sidebar recent comments list because I didn't find it to be very useful, but it shouldn't be too hard for a novice user to add it back in.
Version:
The current version is 0.003.
Version numbers will be updated with each SVN revision commit that modifies this template.
To receive the most up to date version of this template please download it from the Pligg SVN under the /templates directory (not /trunk/templates).
It's brand new and still needs a couple final fixes (see below bug list), but I consider this template to be quite stable. I should have a rock solid version of this template ready for inclusion with 9.9.6.
If you want to run this with Pligg 9.9.5 you should take note of the following:
If you would like to contribute some help I would be glad to have the assistance. I would also greatly appreciate a donation using the Chipin widget associated with this forum thread. I invested a lot of time developing this template and I could use the money to help support me creating more free templates.
Known Issues:
Support:
Limited support will be offered from myself once I finish this template. If enough users begin using this template I will create a new forum for bug reports and help requests.
Please check the README.txt and NOTES.txt files for more information about the MacBlue template.

These templates take me a few solid days of work to complete, so please donate if you use this template. Otherwise I won't be able to continue producing more free Pligg templates.

Known Issues:
- Check page management, currently submission isn't redirecting to anything
- Vote doesn't change to "voted" with ajax vote. Requires page refresh.
