Custom Catalog For Plus R2 (in development with concept, could use feedback please )

Hello all, today i decided to work on the catalog a bit. I wanted to edit some minor things. I like the idea behind the catalog i already have but some things i wanted moved around and ect. Overall, long story short- I wanted more space to show what the catalog contains. For example- my default front page (as for many hotels) shows 4 promos, the large on the left and 3 listed to the right. I wanted these a bit larger, not only that I wanted the catalog pages to be somewhat different.

As I said above this is just a concept and I will be working on it some more over the weekend. The first two images are what Iv'e got done today. The following 2 are concepts of what Id like to have it look like when complete.
So yes in a sense, im in development of it. And then the second set of pictures shows what im working towards (please ignore the navigation on it i forgot to edit it in the concept photos)

************* I am open to all feed back, I want to make this good because I plan on releasing it all input is appreciated. Like I Said the concept is my current goal/ desired outcome, this will change in the future as I adjust it and work with the ui. ****************

I also wanted to mention a few other small things, the Catalog title is centered along with the catalog page description. Its not shown in the photos but it is in the catalog at the moment. I also dont think im going to keep the page on the right of the main screen maybe do something different not sure everything is subject to change.

Current State:




In Hotel:







Now here are the concepts (end result of what im working on) this is the Front Page:





And then the furni pages:

new, i like it.

I’m curious how you moved the navigation to the right, everything i’ve tried breaks the navigation, rendering it unclickbable.. edit, just read this, the right navigation is a mock-up my bad. but either way this catalog has already been done, best of luck!

Its just a rendering (or a preview of what i want to do --- BUT that being said today i was working on it some more. I got the navigation to the right) but now the items box im trying to widen it and im running into issue as if the images layer and it goes behind something when i expand it. Un-fortunitly working with the ui editor becomes very very very time consuming because every time i edit the ui and i dont know what it is, i have to put the new swf in, clear cache and reload to see the change. Now if the change is wrong i have to undo what i did and change it again. Becomes very tedious. Any way here is where im at at the moment. I moved things back to what you see below just for the moment but this is a test page i made to see the boxes without anything

I bid you good luck moving the page content to the left! I tried for a very long time and just gave up, and kept the NavigationContainer there instead. This looks very similar to ours on NGH; I hope it turns out as you hope.
Also, my advice is be mindful of how it looks on smaller monitors. NGH's most modified catalogue (before the current) looked good but clipped on laptop-sized resolutions, so our current is made to be better for laptop users, just wide!

Have you tried placing what you want to the right of it there and see what happens?
