After spending close to a hundred hours (design, integrate, project management), I'm proud to present...

http://liveyourmark.org

This is a collab work between me and my design partner -- Bionic Creative. We both are based in Singapore.

I chose to use Drupal for it's ultra flexibility in templating and super lean codes (I had been building sites with Joomla and I thought that was the best I could find... untill now)

The site was almost table-less, fully-CSS based (it would be 100% if not because the microsites were handled by a different party) otherwise I would submit the site to those CSS-showcase sites too.

Nonetheless, I'm honored enough to be able to share the site here with all you Drupal folks. Feel free to comment and suggest if any. And oh, by the way, the site is so CSS-compliant, I overlook the compatibility with IE 6. So if you see broken layout, please accept my apologies while I try to come up with separate stylesheet for older IEs...

wow i really love the design!

my only criticism is that the hand written font is a little hard to read for me. But the concept is great :)

Great looking site. 100 hours is impresive, was this your first Drupal site or had you worked with Drupal before??

I have set up couple of Drupal sites in the past, but were using the distributed templates. Nothing to brag about. This time around I decided to take the plunge. And I'm glad I survived it :)

I believe I would not need 100 hours if I would to do it again, as larger portion of the time was spent trying to make things work. Just the slide down layer at the top (click on "Don't click here" to see) already taken me one whole day to look for solution.

Good work.

Your nice drupal themes is somehow "different" from most of the drupal themes (... yes, it's good)

How did you design the theme? Did you read any guides, books, etc. when you first got started?
