[themes] Workflow Question

[Vincent // basicmagic.net]

if i were you, i would consider

1- downloading the tao and singular themes from developmentseed.org instead

2- customizing singular to make your first theme, by adapting the
existing templates and css to your visual design

3- as you gain more experience... use tao/singular as a model for
creating your own theme from html/css

4- or, you can do the same with bluemarine instead of tao/singular
(dump out the tables in bluemarine when you do it-
and change them to divs in the page templates and css...)

5- i don't use garland and i don't prefer zen, but people are free to
do what they want now aren't they... that's what its all about

6- kickin' new thing i am looking at is adapting one of my themes to
css dry for drupal


drupal is the best theming platform in the world

i have been on it for the past 5+ years, love it
phptemplate is the bomb...
that's good i think!
