New theme: Holy Grail
by Larry Garfield 01 Jun '06

01 Jun '06

After some cantankerousness with CVS, I have finally gotten this checked in. :-/ http://drupal.org/node/66150 This is intended as a sample theme for other themers. It is just Bluemarine redone to use "Holy Grail" layout, a 3 column pure-CSS layout described here: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/holygrail Hopefully it will prove useful to others, including those working on the new default theme (or not, if they're going a different direction). Enjoy, all! -- Larry Garfield AIM: LOLG42 larry(a)garfieldtech.com ICQ: 6817012 "If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it." -- Thomas Jefferson

Playing with Yahoo Grid CSS
by Steven Peck 31 May '06

31 May '06

Just an FYI. Did an article on porting the Yahoo Grid CSS over for use with Drupal. It turned out to be remarkably easy to do the 2 column. I have a three column (1/2 or 1/2/3) base page.tpl.php figured out and will by writing that up as well. I know how to do a more flexible 3 column base (1/2, or 1/2/3 or 2/3) but just need to site down and work out all the bugs and write it up in the next week or two as well. I can see 4 column with regions being very easy now too as a next step. As I get a better understanding of what I am doing I'll convert these to handbook pages. http://www.blkmtn.org/node/336 Some of the css is sloppy but http://scratch.blkmtn.org is using the Yahoo Grid css now. I will probably be converting my site's theme over to it as well. Ref: http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/grids/

Tango iconset: Default for drupal, is NOT GPL.
by Bèr Kessels 31 May '06

31 May '06

Hello, I only realised this today, but our guidelines speak about using tango as default iconset. We abide these rules very well, in the contribs the mayority if icons are indeed tango icons. But they are not GPL, nor can they be distributed as such. We should address this, and possibly choose another default iconset, or else change our licencing policy. «The Tango icons are licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike license. The palette is public domain, it can be used and distributed freely. Developers, feel free to ship it along with your application. The icon naming utilities are licensed under the GPL» --- from http://tango-project.org/Tango_Desktop_Project Bèr

RE: [themes] howto for buidling a frontpage using regions

Heine has presented an Outline to the docs list to tackle the theme dev guide and make it more up to date/usable. It may be that this can be moved there, we'll see what happens and how it develops.
