Re: A New Default Theme for Textpattern - Request for Proposals
That is exactly my opinion, Jonathan!
The only problem is, the template must not be too complicated. Complicated design templates are somehow much easier to :-(
Regular users must be able to catch on it…

Wouldn’t it be nice in a base install to be able to choose one of two (blog or cms flavor) – or potentially even more – themes? But of course this would require some templating system to be part of core ;-)

Re: A New Default Theme for Textpattern - Request for Proposals
So guys,
I’m done!
This is my first proposal for a new Textpattern Default Theme, and it works in all browsers incl. our beloved friend IE6.
Demo: Txp Default Reloaded (http://test.the-netbrain.de/)
Its a clean and simple design with two columns and some CSS3. It looks modern and clean.

Re: A New Default Theme for Textpattern - Request for Proposals
I like the layout nice and clean. But I think the content needs to go before the sidebar in the markup.

Looks nice indeed. Any chance to take a look at the Txp-markup?

I like it Andreas. Very simple. Very neat. Very cool methinks. :)
Two minor points:-
The site name in the copyright could be linked using <txp:site_url /> and <txp:site_name /> tags which should always work wherever it is installed.
The CSS was ever so neat until I reached the “comment form” section so could you re-do that bit to match the rest, that is to say, each selector on a new line with a single “tab” indent? Keeps things consistent. ;)

Re: A New Default Theme for Textpattern - Request for Proposals
Thanks to all you guys!
@ Stuart: You’re right!
Point 1: I would like to add site_url
Point 2: You’ve got me. I’m going to give me more trouble with the clarity of the CSS :-)

Re: A New Default Theme for Textpattern - Request for Proposals
Thanks, it looks nice even from the inside ;-)
Actually, since I had some time thinking, wouldn’t it be cool to include some of the Txp Tips in a default theme?
Tips like these come to mind – to name but a few:
Share This invite using only CSS
Using txp:variable to improve your comment header
Personal greeting in comments form

First: Let’s see whether this Theme becomes standard.
Second: then we can see what we can still integrate
