There ought to be a module for helping theme developers test styles similar to Kiwi Themes' Typography page: http://demo.kiwi-themes.com/drupal-dev/node/68

@jensimmons wanted an easy way to see the three types of error messages, and i thought of the above and this module idea again. We're thinking an independent module that ships with devel themer.

Word is Jacine and Sun are working on a module to do this but i'm sure better and more ;-)

Some background and prior and contemporary art (and a downloadable 6.x version):

Marking this needs review, because if people think it's worth including in the devel_themer package it's ready for that.

There's enough other modules doing this that Theme developer need not get involved.

See http://data.agaric.com/raw/typography-example-page-drupal-sites the others in this space section:

Code to cut and paste: http://fusiondrupalthemes.com/drupal-ipsum

http://drupal.org/project/themetest

And the answer to it all? Jacine and Sun's coming entry:

http://drupalcode.org/viewvc/drupal/contributions/modules/design/
http://groups.drupal.org/node/44384

And then there's Ken Rickard's Styleguide:
http://drupal.org/project/styleguide

Styleguide is probably the most similar to this experiment, and it's extensible.
