Below is a summary of each of the available packages from the Replicant 2 release.- Replicant 2 Template (rt_replicant2_j15.tgz) This file is the template package you will use to install your template into Joomla.
- Replicant 2 Custom Extensions (replicant2-extensions-j15.zip) This package contains each of the individual custom extensions included in the Replicant2 template release.
- Replicant 2 Source PNG(s) (replicant2-sources.zip) This zip contains the source PNG(s) for making modifications and customisations to the images in the template (and if applicable, the font used for the logo). You will need an image editing software (preferably Adobe/Macromedia Fireworks) to utilise the Source PNG files.
