Omega
#D7CX: I pledge that Omega will have a full Drupal 7 release on the day that Drupal 7 is released.
The Omega Theme is a powerful and free Drupal theme based on the 960gs. It harneses the power and features of many popular themes to provide an excellent base theme, and sub-theming system to help you quickly prototype and theme your site...
The Omega theme
- 960gs base theme
- Ability to integrate multiple 960gs grid size/styles
- 12 column support
- 16 column support
- 24 column support
- Integrated "grid builder" or grid management interface.
Currently, this feature uses simple theme-settings.php form elements to manage various aspects of the grid sizing, and generic theme features. Future plans will included a jQuery preview window which will allow dragging/resizing of the regions. - Tons of built in theme configurations
- Ability to integrate multiple 960gs grid size/styles
- important features from popular themes.

Alpha release available!!
The project is now in an Alpha release for the 6--1 branch. The code is still in flux as better, faster alternatives are being implemented for many of the current features. The core codebase could still change greatly prior to an official, stable 6.x-1.0 release.
Update:The current alpha6 release fixes a major issue with sub-theming and hook_preprocess functionality. If you are using a previous release, you should upgrade to the alpha6 version.
DEV version from HEAD
The current dev branch from HEAD is a sure bet to blow up your drupal site, steal your purse, eat small kittens, and read your emails. In other words: Don't use it yet in a production environment.... This version is currently not being developed on either until the 6--1-0 branch is merged back in, and then that will likely become the development spot. I really am not a fan of the inability to remove things from HEAD, and have had to manipulate the branch in order to complete some things I needed. The Alpha release branch is the only current one that should be used.
