when thinking about a new sites and theme for a site.. are there any consideration i need to think about for the theme developers to incorporate into the design..

or once the Node/Blocks are "themed" do they just cover everything ?

Im wanting to do a website but havent quite narrowed it down in my mind exactly the features what i want.. I want to get a theme designed and coded but .. are there any considerations i need to take into "consideration" :0 before i get the theme designed ?

regards
MaNga

just musing

A good developer will be able to create the theme without knowing which features are going to be used with it, even if a few tweaks are required once you've finalised the rest.

well generally you should give the developer an idea of how you are going to present the content on your site or atleast how you want it to be presented....

Thats kinda my thinking Maginty.. Im new to drupal. but the way i see it.. the theme is designed as "layout" "Block" "Node".. so if those are covered what else can be themed.. scratches head*

i guess i could have diffferent colord blocks and nodes.. or would that be crazy complicated ?

I think that the problem is that at the moment we're talking in fairly general terms.

Try writing down a specification (as much or as little as you can), then sending it to a developer. They'll at least be able to tell you what more information they need.
