Mobile menus work appropriately and expand correctly to show all items in the navigation.

Components and interactions work across mobile. (Eg. Sliders become draggable, and content does not rely on hover states).
Effects & Animations
Transitions are present on some layers, not every layer or entire sections. Use them sparsely.
There is no use of preloaders unless they significantly enhance the experience of the website.

All text is legible, background and text have enough contrast.

Once you have made the necessary improvements, we encourage you to resubmit your template for reconsideration. We look forward to reviewing your revised template and appreciate your continued interest in collaborating with us.
