Description
I downloaded the theme and got the Salamander theme instead. Don't know if this an incorrect upload from the developer OR a site problem. Actually it shows up as both the Ability and the Salamander themes. Same theme shown twice in the listing.
#1
The reason this theme is showing you those problems, is this person, didn't even take the time to adjust the name of the .info file nor the css file
Fact: this theme release does little more than change a few colors and redistributes a theme that was developed by someone else on drupal.org. Yes, Yes I know this person gave credit to salamander on the project page, but I still see it as an underhanded manuever. IMO, If there was a way to abuse the GPL, this is it. I believe this person should cease and desist with this project altogether.
support the true developer of this theme and use salamander rather than this hack of a theme ability. Salamander theme found here: http://drupal.org/project/salamander
you will see yourself there is VERY LITTLE difference between the two outside of some color differences specifically in the sidebars.
#2
either way both are broken in Drupal 6 :-(
Header and left column are shown ABOVE the body.
#3
The developer of salamander can't fix it unless you place a bug report in that issue query.
also try and keep in mind that the theme is still - dev
