The sidebars don't disappear completely when the sidebars are empty
The right column seems to expand beyonf 100% of the screen
The left column could use a bit of padding above the blocks or the right column could use less to equialize them but its close to a complete fixed 3 column version of the theme

I like the 3-column version of the theme. Is it possible to achieve the same effect without losing the blue gradient along the right and left edges? I think the gradient adds a lot to the design.

Also, I'm not sure how it would be best to go about integrating your changes back in. Any thoughts?

Yes it can.

In the CSS

body {
color:#1D2D45;
font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;
line-height:135%;
}

can be replaced with

body {
color: #1D2D45;
font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;
line-height: 135%;
margin: 0pt 12px;
}

The download file on http://stevejbayer.com/files/drupify5x.tar has been updated with the above in addition to adding padding in the left sidebar to equalize it with the right sidebar.

Edit:
I haven't changed that much from the original Drupify port apart from adding a table cell just above the mainbody cell in page.tpl.php

<td class="left">
              <div class="padding">
                <div class="moduletable">
                  <?php if ($sidebar_left): ?>
                    <div id="sidebar-left" class="column sidebar">
                      <?php if ($sidebar_left) {  print $sidebar_left; } ?>
                    </div> <!-- /sidebar-left -->
                  <?php endif; ?>
                </div>
              </div>
            </td>

adding a left sidebar block region in template.php:

function drupify5x_regions() {
  return array(
  'left' => t('left sidebar'),
       'right' => t('right sidebar'),
       'top_left' => t('top left'),
       'top_right' => t('top right'),       
       'content' => t('content'),
       'header' => t('header'),
       'bottom_left' => t('bottom left'),
       'bottom_right' => t('bottom right'),       
       'footer' => t('footer')
  );
}

and for every .right class in style.css I added a .left class

The credit for building the Drupify theme is yours Matt V., all I did was add a sidebar on the left.

If the theme is working without issue, I don't mind contributing it to the theme registry.

The earlier issue of padding was what held me back from committing the theme as a contrib.

I tried out your version of the theme — nice work. I'm glad that people are using and customizing the theme, but since this is based on an existing Joomla theme that was not my work (Rokwebify), I'd like to stay true to the original 2-column design.

If I were to include three column, I'd like it to be optional. If the theme could be written to only include additional columns if they're configured to contain content (I believe the Zen theme and others offer this), I'd reconsider. The main thing is that I'd want Drupify to function like the original Joomla theme out of the box.

If you mean collapsible columns, that can be done. However, I'd rather see to the theme being ported to Drupal 6 and then provide collapsible columns.

I have a Drupal 6 version in the works. I just have to merge some of the recent updates I made in version 5 back in. I should have something posted very soon.

SteveJB,

I've now checked in a D6 version of the theme. I'm just having a little trouble getting a new development release posted. If you're able to use CVS, please feel free (and encouraged even) to download it and give it a try. Otherwise, hopefully it'll be up on the project page shortly.

I've been a bit rude not replying or following up. I just noticed the fluid three column version does not have the fluid blocks in the upper content and lower content regions of the theme.

I've updated that release a bit :

I can see the Drupal 6 version has similar updated. I'm willing to code in nice menus styling.
