Founded in 2007, Brand Thunder specializes in creating highly interactive browser themes that integrate general web browsing functionality with custom content and tools that make it easy to stay engaged with those who follow your brand. The company has worked with some of the largest brands in the world to help increase fan engagement. Clients include: CBS Sports, Huffington Post, Bob Marley, The Daily Beast, NBA, NHL, NFL, College Humor, and more.

On average, a browser theme user will visit a client’s website 8 times more during a given month compared to an average reader or fan of the website. This increase in engagement and visits are some of the main reasons big brands and small bloggers use browser themes to drive traffic and even sell their product or service.

That’s great, but what does it mean to create interactive browser themes? A great example would be the theme created for the news site The Huffington Post.

Huffington Post Browser Theme

This theme has a simple design that’s easy on the eyes and yet keeps both The Huffington Post brand and content in front of those using the theme. According to The Huffington Post, this theme yielded some impressive results to the tune of an 8x increase in site visits from those using the browser! That means people who read The Huffington Post on average about 5 times per month where now visiting the site 40 times per month. Obviously, this custom browser thing has its perks. So how can you get in on the action?

Fortunately for those of you without the resources of the Huffington Post, you don’t have to hire a team to make a theme like this for you. You can create one yourself in minutes with BT:Engage, Brand Thunder’s new browser theme tool. Here’s how…

Step One:

Go to http://bt-engage.com and create an account. Then decide what sort of theme you want to create. For this theme tutorial we’ve chosen this site of course: TheDesignMag.com

Step Two:

Click – “Create a new theme”

Step Three:

Select which browser you will be designing for. We will be sticking with Firefox but the steps should be extremely similar if not the same for both Firefox and Internet Explorer.

Step Four:

Choose a background. Since we are designing a theme around the website www.TheDesignMag.com, we are going to use the properties window to make my background brown to match the look of the site.

Step Five:

Add your logo. First you’ll want to click on the “My Images” tab in the assets section at the bottom of the page. Next you’ll need to upload the logo you’re using from your computer. We simply went to the TheDesignMag website, screen-captured the logo on the about page and uploaded that. Once your logo image appears in the assets area, click on it and drag it over top of the theme you’re creating. When you release the mouse button the image will be loaded and placed automatically. Adjust image size according to your personal taste, but be sure to click the “lock aspect ratio” check-box in your properties window so as not to mess up your logo’s dimensions while resizing.

Step Six:

Make sure to enter your homepage link for the logo you upload so when people click the logo of your theme they will be directed to your website. In this case, we will enter the link: http://TheDesignMag.com

Step Seven:

Choose a widget that encourages the types of engagement you’d like to see from those who will use this theme. Since TheDesignMag has a feed, we are going to drag the RSS widget up and paste the TheDesignMag RSS link into the properties window. Be sure to click “validate” and then “save.”

We also chose additional widgets to help direct users to the homepage, TheDesignMag Twitter account, and the “articles” section. This ensures that readers of TheDesignMag will have quick access to the most important sections of the website and appropriate social media accounts.

Here is what the Design Mag theme ended up looking like.

Step Eight:

Click Finish and install! Once you’ve click the finish button at the top left hand corner, your theme will be created and you’ll be taken to another page where you can download and install your theme for free. You can also share this page with others so they can use your theme as well. That’s it! This tool is extremely easy to use and the entire process took us about 5 minutes.

While browsing through the web I’ve stumbled upon the slogan that sounded like “Powerful Flash CMS”. As for me it was rather pompous and promising but it picked me up (I guess it’s the very thing the website developers hope for). So I decided to check out the realness of the declared statement. Luckily for a few months I’ve been thinking about creating a flexible, dynamic and – what is more important – a functional and attractive Flash Photo Gallery. So when I saw the unknown encouraging Flash content management system I couldn’t stand aside. And now I’m going to test one of the flash galleries which are available at Motocms.com as demo versions. Frankly speaking I didn’t expect to see a great variety of templates but I was pleasantly surprised when I thumbed through new and new nice looking flash themes. So, the first output is that the good variety of products testifies in favour of Moto Flash CMS.

Even for a novice that I am it was easy enough to create my live demo account and get the trial template’s version. Wow! For the next 30 days I’m the competent owner of the flash photo gallery template and I’m free to evaluate it. Yummy! It sounds good (I would even say tempting)…

And wait a minute, what’s that going on?! After waiting for a while for my first loading the CMS has appeared. Alright, maybe it was not as fast as I expected it to, but most likely that was a problem of my slow computer which was not exactly ready for this sort of operation at first, not the Flash CMS itself. And what a miracle – I can see the Control Panel! Its outlook knocks me out! I like all kinds of flash elements very much and here they are!

When you touch one of the five elements with the mouse pointer they start to roll, shuffle and change. And on the next moment the quality of graphics impressed me greatly. At the first sight you can appreciate the hard work which had been made before the photo gallery template was presented to the online community. Every element looks as it is in 3D and sometimes it seems that you can touch the digital object. If you only could see my monitor right now you’d know that it is covered with my finger prints. Damn, I like it more and more!

I like when the applications talk to me and give useful tips about things I see in front of me on the monitor (without this I feel like I’m a child pushing and touching everything around randomly). In fact I am truly a zero in flash website creation and this is my first attempt to make an unbelievable and highly functional interactive flash photo gallery. My masterpiece has to demonstrate human beauty so I try to create two gallery pages with male and female models.

Looking at the photo gallery website template I started trying to change its outlook. It appeared to be very easy (especially if you have been working with Microsoft Office for example). Every flash template element can be easily changed with one or double-click of the left button of your mouse. This way you may also modify any type of website’s content in a few minutes. The same can be made by clicking once on the digital object and then push “Edit Module” button on the bottom right corner of the browser window. In case you like the right mouse button more than the left one you may click it once and choose “Edit” from the drop-down menu. Developers of the Moto CMS strived much to make the result of these three actions the same.

Let’s look at the flash gallery title – I don’t like it at all and naturally I decide to change it. So I click once on the template’s title and see the Menu panel at the right side of the window.  There I type the other slogan text – Avalon – and you may think of some other words to present your flash photo gallery to the online community. Moreover you are welcome to make some other changes like letters’ color, text effects or pointing this text link to a certain website page. As for the Effects you may find 5 of them in the template: Bevel, Blur, Color, Glow and Shadow. And what is more interesting is that these delicate effects can be applied not only to the text elements but to graphics, too.

And when you correct inscriptions of the flash gallery template you may be interested in fonts’ modification. Arial, Georgia, M+ 1c, Tahoma, Times New Roman and Verdana are standard fonts for photo gallery templates. But if they don’t suit you then you are welcome to add something new to the font list. In such case you need to have a *.swf font file or to create it by yourself. Not exactly by yourself because embedded Online Font Creator and Fonts Manager by Motocms.com will convert the ordinary *.ttf and *.otf fonts into the *.swf format for you (don’t you think it’s marvelous?). And in such way my cute flash photo gallery has got the new title lettering. I guess now with Algerian font the theme’s slogan text looks more presentable, don’t you think so?

When I was working with the navigation system MotoCMS has offered me to create new pages but I didn’t need them and I only deleted the third gallery page from the template and started working with the existing ones. Adding new photos to the Media Library took me a few minutes. I would rather take into account the photos’ size and aspect ratio to make them look good on the website but I’ve not taken that into consideration right from the start. So I had to use  the Image Editor integrated in MotoCMS template and you know, it was absolutely amazing (you may find it after double click on the image you want to edit). And when I completed my beautiful galleries I found that they were twins! I mean, the photos from the first one were the same with the second gallery photos. I thought it was a bad joke but it was not funny for me, at all. Having found the mistake I was confused because all I needed to do was to create two different Contents for different galleries. So, guys, when you add any new items to the photo gallery from your Media Library don’t forget to choose “Catalogue content” in the header part of the Advanced Gallery Widget window (Double-click on the gallery page will allow you to complete it with new photos). Moreover it would be not bad to choose different widgets for every photo gallery page.

And you know, it was my first and the last serious trouble with this Flash CMS – my future work was mostly ideal – I just had to settle the issue which color I wanted to use more.

And two social media buttons were the next thing for me to be proud of. Almost every website has its Facebook and Twitter pages. So if I’m thinking of having an interesting and popular website I should take care of my social media network presence. But I don’t think that icons with blue birds and shaped letters are good for my website’s design. So I need to make them by myself. And Flash templates from Moto CMS allow me to do it. Among other slots such as List Element, Image Slot, Image Slot with Appearance, Background Image, Page Part, Close Button and Photo Gallery Lightbox there is a Simple Button Slot. Click it and choose the place you want the button to be placed at. Now you are able to correct the newborn button (size, orientation, color, text, effects, click event etc.). After all I’ve got two unobtrusive buttons at the home page of my Flash photo gallery.

You know, my Flash photo gallery is nearly completed but I still haven’t touched the “Module” tab. This function enables adding and correcting Media Player Widget, Rich Content Block, Form Widget, Main Menu, Advanced Gallery Widget, Photo Gallery Preview and Photo Gallery Thumbnail List. A contact form has been already placed on the Casting page so I just need to change it a little bit. Double clicking on the contact form opens the Form Widget Window in front of the eyes. It does not differ too much from other editable windows so it is easy to add or remove content fields. On the right side of the window you may find Configuration button which enables you to format parameters of the Form Configuration and Validation Error Massage submenus. Here you may type the email address you want all users’ massages to be delivered to.

And don’t forget to save changes you’ve made by clicking “Save Page” button on the upper sidebar. It would not be good if few hours work will gap nothing.

You know when I was trying to build the marvelous photo gallery with the help of Moto Flash CMS I remembered my childhood when I saw the Power Point by Microsoft for the first time. It seemed to be like a magic – you push the button and then the colorful image starts twisting and rolling around the monitor. It was unbelievable and inimitable feeling. And when I started working with the MotoCMS-based Flash Photo Gallery Template I was shocked because of simplicity of the customization process. Again all I had to do was to simply push the button and observe magical results of my simple action. I did not expect that everything will be so intelligent. Of course this comparison is too simplified for such serious software as MotoCMS, but it is as easy in use as the Microsoft product was for me back then. I find it amazing because millions of people don’t want to waste their time on studying new complex technologies which they will use just once. It is a perfect chance to create a magnificent flash website without extra efforts and frustrations.

And maybe the time of my glory as a flash developer (or at least a flash website manager) is not so distant and unbelievable!
