The latest version is available from here.

If you need help with the theme, there is a support webpage here, with a FAQ, and an extensive forum.

Version 1.8 is a major update – the theme now automatically links to your first 7 pages and puts the headings in. If you want the old version with the writing in the images, you can still grab it from here. Also, the original photoshop file to make your own sliding images for the old version is here.

Plus here are a couple of extra steps to get the unique slidingdoor features enabled.  

IMAGES

Download the original photoshop files and edit the text on the sliding images and the background pictures to suit your own site. Then save the images as compressed as you can, and  upload the finished pictures to: yoursite/wp-content/themes/slidingdoor/imagemenu/images

IMAGE URL’s

The images by default point to the first 7 wordpress categories. You can change this to point them wherever you wish, but you will need to edit the header.php file. The URL for the first image is in line 47 of the header.php file.  Line 48 contains the link for the second image and so on. 

SITE HEADING

The theme has the ability to have two colours in the blog heading. To use this optional effect you simply need to place square brackets around any words that you want to be darker in the heading. For example on this site I have as the blog name “free[wordpress]theme[!]” so the “wordpress” and “!” is darker. This does not effect the page title where the brackets are replaced by spaces.

If you have any questions please go to the support forum and chances are someone has already asked it there.

2. Download the ‘page links to’ plugin from here

3.In the WordPress Pages menu Create 7 pages that will be your seven headings in the menu. They can be a real pages with content (Eg ‘About me’) or you can go down the bottom of the page entry and select the ‘page links to’ and link to anywhere like this:

4. If you’d like to change the images, you need to use an FTP program to upload new jpgs to override the existing ones in the wp-content/themes/slidingsdoor/imagemenu/images directory. They need to have the same name, and be 320×200 in size or it won’t work.

For more complicated mods etc check out the forums at mac-host.com/support
Enjoy!
