Re: [contrib] Looking for a community-picked Textpattern admin theme

The admin theme option seems a little hidden and odd that Remora isn’t on by default.
‘classic’ remains the TXP default theme. Remora is an option to show how admin themes can alter stuff. Switching and altering themes can be made more ‘visible’ via my smd_admin_themes plugin if you wish.
I made some optimizations for the new Remora admin theme.
Nice work. Separation of the logout link is a nice touch — I’ve hit that by mistake a few times already in the default remora :-)
Once you’ve tested it to destruction and are happy, you may want to name it something else (e.g. psk_remora or something else entirely: it is advisable to use a three letter prefix in custom themes) and upload it to Textgarden
btw, smd_admin_themes will help you package up your themes for distribution to the community, and makes editing them a bit more graphical. Plus you can install others and configure the plugin to allow per-privilege or per user themes.

Re: [contrib] Looking for a community-picked Textpattern admin theme
Sorry to come in so late but my question is, if I design something and hand over a JPG or PDF rather than CSS’ing everything, would someone be interested in laying it out?

Possibly, but I’m pretty behind in even refining my minor tweak. I’d highly recommend that you create your mockup and provide the source graphics (ideally something like PSD or AI or something not flattened), so that you can express your ideas for improvements and then eventually somebody can come along and do the markup/css.
