Just FYI: the bluebreeze theme is based on the html source of the zen theme (slightly modified). So it can serve the same puropses as the zen theme (= be a good base for a new theme to develop). <snip>...</snip> Of course I'm biased as I'm the main developer of the bluebreeze theme, but IMHO it would still be a good default theme, as it is a good source for new themes (zen structure), it has a quite unique style, a liquid and fixed width version and from a usability point of view it serves the purpose of an administration theme quite good IMO.
Ehmm... First of all, if a theme looks good is a matter of personal opinion and I'm not going to argue here wether your theme should make it into core or because it is - by your words - good looking. But what I am interested in, is why you say this: "from a usability point of view it serves the purpose of an administration theme quite good IMO". Can you elaborate on that? Why do you think that *your* theme is doing a better job as the administration theme, than the current ones we have in core, or "Delicously Zen/Blue/whatever-its-called" or ThemeTastic? I'm not trying to be unpolitefull, but after some looks at your theme i think: - it's not very spectacular from a designers point of view; - i don't see in any aspect why it is made/optimised from a usability point of view (this is btw not your fault, but drupals); And besides that, I feel pretty uncomfortable that it's based on the themetastic colourscheme, and you took the icons *I* made for themetastic and included them into your theme without *any* way of letting me at least know about it. (Seems to me the least thing you could do). Kind regards, Stefan Main developer of ThemeTastic (which isn't based on any other theme at all, because I _do_ have inspiration)
