Themes

Zen

Zen is the ultimate starting theme for Drupal. If you are building your own standards-compliant theme, you will find it much easier to start with Zen than to start with Garland or Bluemarine. This theme has fantastic online documentation and tons of code comments for both the PHP (template.php) and HTML (page.tpl.php, node.tpl.php).

This theme saved me at 2am. Three hours of messing with 1000+ lines of nasty Garland-adapted code later, I abandoned it and recoded the site as a Zen sub-theme in under an hour. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
- Greg

The theme “Zen” turned out to be the public favorite and won the “Best Drupal Theme” title.
- Award announcement for the Drupal Hall of Fame Award by Packt Publishing

You can see more testimonials in the online documentation.

The idea behind the Zen theme is to have a very flexible standards-compliant and semantically correct XHTML theme that can be highly modified through CSS and an enhanced version of Drupal’s template system.

Out of the box, Zen is clean and simple with either a one, two, or three column layout of fixed or liquid width. In addition, the HTML source order has content placed before sidebars or the navbar for increased accessibility and SEO.

The name is an homage to the CSS Zen Garden site where designers can redesign the page purely through the use of CSS.

This is a center aligned, CSS-based (no tables), multi-column layout theme, with some configurable color options, and support for many core configurations and some popular contributed modules.

Special thanks to the developers of the Studio theme for coming up with a great way to structure theme files in Drupal 6 and sharing with the community.

Also, thanks to IcoJoy for allowing us to use their pretty One Bit icons in an open source theme.

Future versions of Sky will be CSS-only + support for Skinr
