By popular demand - the next release of UberWeiss - A new base theme for drupal.

This release has a far more condensed style (a little better planned). Also now supports secondary link action and a header block area.

If you base a theme on this one, please leave the credit at the bottom of the page.

For as long as I've been in web development have I wanted to make a mostly white site. In reality, this is the latest edition in the qüb project, the bare-bones starting point edition.

A screenshot for posterity, for from here I intend add the sparkly slowly but surely, and hopefully document the "Getting the most from your qüb theme" section for this site. Also hopefully implememting the necessary changes to support drupal 4.7, cck and views (these will soon be standard on all new sites, I can gaurentee that).

Update: überWeiss theme now available for download.

Nando's approached Obsidian to automate a large section of the Nando's Franchise application.

The previous solution worked better than expected, with over 30 new applicants monthly from the site alone. Today, the upgraded system with additional filters and way more features goes live to a staging server for client review. For ÜberEllis fans, a sneak preview:

The Board of Healthcare Funders (BHF) site migration starts today. You can monitor the progress here.

The first (apart from ÜberEllis of course...) website going live (soon...watch this space) theme development based on Project qüb

While we wait for CVS approval from the guys at Drupal, get the theme-previously-known-as-grey-box-extreme (It's come to my attention that the name might cause confusion for some support) here.

Try it out and let me know of feature requests/suggestions by commenting here. I'm also open for suggestions for a new name :)

The qüb theme has been live on ÜberEllis.com for roughly two or three weeks now, and feedback is scarce.

The next necessary step in my opinion is to get a generic version ready and also to create an offline Drupal installation with the necessary content to create the screenshots required. That starts this afternoon.

I've applied for a CVS account today...here's hoping I get approved :)

As an avid fan (and renowned zealot) of open source CMS project, drupal, it's been a pet yearning of mine to contribute a theme..

In an attempt to brush up on my mark-up and styling skills and optimizing my drupal theming in general, I've started what has become a sort-of defacto DAYG (Design as you Go) project - and I liked it. Impatient as I am, and hungering for peer review, I've decided to upload the theme before completion. Hopefully it will inspire to make me complete it sooner (as I probably won't ever get around to doing a new ÜberEllis theme anyway..)
