We are very excited and very proud to bring to you the new and improved Vertex 2 template framework! You can upgrade your existing V1 templates today with an easy to use patch file here. Note - responsive features are only available on templates built after June 2012.

This new version brings a lot of very exciting new features to Vertex. First, this version is completely backwards compatible and will work with all Shape5 Vertex templates. The new features that are included with Vertex 2 are: file compression, max body width, image widths, updated multibox script, info slide, and many core coding structure changes.

Some features, such as those that apply to responsive layouts will not appear on V1 templates because those templates were not built for responsive designs.
