Hot Polygons template is quite unusual! It creates polygonal backgrounds dynamically and opens your articles with some nice CSS3 animation effects. And, of course... Everything is 100% responsive, mobile-friendly and eye candy!
Create your Joomla articles as you normally do and assign an intro image (ideally 1920 x 500 pixels) for each of them. Use one sentence for intro text and whatever you like for the rest of the article. Classify the articles in categories.

Tips For Using This Template
As you can see on our demo, this template opens articles without loading the separate article pages. After click on any article image, an overlay mode will be opened followed by a fancy HTML5 animation. The full article image and text will be displayed here. After the content, you can see a permanent link to the article.
When creating your own articles, please follow these rules to be sure they will look as our demo articles:
- Don't use too long text for intro text (this is text before "Read More tag). It should be only one sentence there.
- Add featured image for each article. When you edit article, switch to "Images and links" tab and for "Intro image" select an image. It's recommended to use images in resolution 1920x500px.
- If you don't select an intro image for any article, default image will be used. It's located in images/default.jpg. If you want to change default image, change this image (resolution is 1920x500px).
