Gregory Magee Jr. wrote to let me know that the US Apple Store has Bento 2 for $34 instead of $49.95 as part of its Black Friday promotional deals.

Description
The Expenses template is a simple expense logging system. It consists of two libraries, one to store the top-level expense claim along with details such as when it was submitted and when it was paid and the other stores the expense claim items. Read more

PLEASE NOTE: The details about the theme which was related to this post has now been moved to this page.

Earlier today Patrick La Roque sent me the details of a theme he had created for Bento 2. This galvanised me into action and I decided to give up on finding a useful automated way to handle template (and now theme) submissions and it seems easier to simply manage them manually. Therefore the Downloads page has been updated with details about how you can submit your templates and themes and the information I need from you.

Hopefully the library of available downloads will now grow and become a useful resource and I will endeavour to find a more beautiful way to present them.

I decided to keep this post simply because of Patrick’s comment which remains below.
