A request for a maintainer to add a links section either on the Zen Theme project page or a page in the Zen Documentation where sites using the new 7.x-5.x theme can be displayed as examples of this very fine starter theme.

I'd like to see this as well. I'm proposing to use Zen as our base theme in part due to the responsive / zen grids component. I'd love to have real examples to show both clients and front-end developers / themers who have to learn zen grids.

My personal website uses a custom subtheme of Zen 7.x-5.x-dev: http://panda.id.au/

I recently published the Point Reyes Light newspaper site using 7.x-5.x-dev. Some of the Zen Grids layout to make the adaptive panels on the home page work properly was tricky, but I'm happy with the result.

@jerry Very nice example. Can you give any pointers on how you got adaptive panels and zen grids layouts to work properly? Thanks.

Brute force, mostly. I've attached the relevant bits of the stylesheets. This is a three-four adaptive grid, with only the 3x3 section actually used.

the Zen theme has been downloaded over a million times. I'm not really keen on adding a giant list of sites. Plus, most of the work for any linked site would be the hard work of the sub-themer.

We tried this with the Zen group on groups.drupal.org. It never really materialized.

@jerry I've been meaning to get back to thank you for sharing the details in #7 it was very helpful in getting me over some hurdles.
