Quite a Fiddly Design But Doable in Kentico

We've recently launched a Kentico based site for Axon Garside. Content is a bit sparse but it will grow over the next few weeks.

It's a nice design, a bit fiddly in places and caused us to build more templates than we'd have liked to.

The biggest problem was the different colour schemes for each section of the site. Ideally we'd have added a class to the <body> tag via the template and controlled the colours through the stylesheet. Kentico doesn't seem to allow this (unless you know different, if so please reply) and we had to build a complete template for each colour scheme with very little difference between them. Just one class on a <div>. This obviously has an impact on support - a minor tweak means changing lots of templates.

Ho-hum, we're happy with the outcome and so is the customer.
