a subtheme might be a great way to go here. create a folder inside your existing theme's folder, and duplicate whatever files you need to overwrite or modify, and then make your modifications. it will show up as a new theme, and you can use things like taxonomy_theme or similar modules to set certain paths to use your new theme!

Hi Everyone,
My boss has a special request of me. We want to make a "sub-site" of the current site we are running, which is:
http://narcosphere.narconews.com
I need to build a sub-site which will use most of the current theme but with about 15-20% of changes. For instance, I am going to need to change the banner for this "sub-site", get rid of the left column, and change what's on the right-sidebar.
Is there an easy way to do this without having to make a whole new drupal installation just for this sub-site?
If this isn't clear enough, please let me know and I can further explain what I'm trying to do.
Thanks!
David B.
