Want a custom theme? Let's build one...
Making a custom Drupal theme is pretty easy. Now you may ask why create a theme when there are so many great free themes available for download on Drupal.org. Well, sometimes an existing Drupal theme just will not do. Or possibly you might have a designer that has a PSD or InDesign file of exactly how you want your site to look. No matter what your reason, I will walk through creating a custom theme from start to finish.
The focus will be on Drupal 6, if there is extra time we’ll go over Drupal 7 theming.
