Complete Image Styles

Introduction

Image effects, Style & Design, Articles styling

Complete Image Styles is a Joomla plugin that provides a full collection of styles and effects for images. Now, you can make your images much more attractive by applying to them many styles. Complete Image Styles brings together all the standard and new styles that appeared with the growth of CSS. Styles like border, shadow, rounded corners, frame, embossed, perspective, lifted corners, raised box, cutout, glowing, reflection, curves, captions and others can be applied alone or in combination.

In order to style an image you can use the predefined themes, you can modify them according to your needs or create a custom theme from scratch. Your themes will be saved in the plugin and can be reused easily to any existing or future image in your website.

Complete Image Styles uses only **CSS **and **jQuery **to apply the styles. No special and transparent images are needed. Of course images can also be links.

No coding skills are required. Just the plugin and a good content editor like JCE Editor or JCK Editor or CKEditor. So, wherever you have access to the editor (all articles and all modules) you can apply easily the styles. Developers who have knowledge of CSS can apply the styles to images of other Joomla extensions (like VirtueMart, SOBI, Phoca Gallery etc.) if the code of the extension allows that.

Posted on 30 October 2021

Functionality

A very useful, flexible and stable image presentation tool that functions exactly as described by the developer.

Ease of use

Small learning curve for a novice but you are quickly conversant with the extensive range of image options and producing positive results.

Support

Have had limited call on support but when necessary it has been prompt, detailed and a friendly interaction.

Documentation

More than sufficient for the task at hand including supporting my site development efforts since 2014.

Value for money

Been using the extension on a community site for years so definitely value for the price.

I used this to: The extension is very flexible. Apart from the set styles it allows the user to create many variations to a the included set themes. I have used a mix of these attributes on most site images.

YES

Value for money

BEST

Owner's reply: Maybe there is another reason that the plugin does not work in your website.
Below is a link where you can see the plugin Complete Image Styles working in latest Joomla (3.7.0) and PHP (7.0.16).
http://demo.impression-estudio.gr/en/cis-test.html
After all, the changes in Joomla 3.7 are not so intense in order to affect the functionality of any extension.

Well structured extension

Functionality

This extension provided me with all that I was looking for and more.

Ease of use

Reasonably straight forward, it would help if there were some more detailed instructions.

Functionality

Superb functionality. There are many options to chose from, and the combination of them all makes the possibilities unlimited.

Ease of use

Very easy and intuitive. I am not a tech guy and still i was able to use it in minutes after installing it. No technical knowledge required.

Support

I emailed the developer and got his answer in less that 24 hours - twice. And it was over the weekend!

Documentation

There is more then enough documentation, both user guide and video tutorials, but being so easy to use that makes them useless i would say.

Value for money

Very cheap, especially if you consider its quality and capabilities. Need a very easy way to add spice to your website? Then just go for it!

Great Product

Considering the work it takes for developers to create a program. I would say the price is fair indeed.
