Spacey 1.3
Spacey is a video-centric K2 mod developed for Show In A Box. It’s designed to allow videos up to 640 pixels wide (a post with a 640 x 360 video will display in 1024 x 768 browser window without scrolling). It includes a Theme Options page and a heavily commented style sheet to make futher customization easier.
From the Theme Options page you can select a 1, 2 or 3 column layout and upload your own custom header images. For more options there is a secondary style sheet (spacey/styles/yourstyle/yourstyle.css) that has the most common CSS rules you’ll want to change. Just modify yourstyle.css and then choose it from the Style menu on the Theme Option page to change the look of your site without altering any of the core theme files.
Spacey includes built-in styling for vPIP so that your video format and embed code links appear together right under the video window. I’ve also included alternate images for the vPIP close button that you can find in spacey/vPIPbuttons.
Spacey also includes a special page template designed to work with the Video Press Video Archive and vPIP plugins. If you have both of those plugins installed and configured you can create a new Wordpress page and choose “Visual Archive” as the page template to create an archive page at the URL of your choice.
