Please provide Starter CSS classes like AT does! [#1332792]

The one reason I find myself always going back to AdaptiveTheme is because the starter theme gives me a bunch of empty drupal classes to fill in my styles into. Then i just delete the styles I don't use when I am done.

Thanks Jake & Co for this great theme. Now if you would be so kind to provide empty classes in global.css for starters, that'd make things so much easier. A few times, I've tried to use Omega, I always go back into AT starter to copy the starter styles (empty drupal classes) provided and then paste them into my Omega theme : (

Also this will also guide new users into figuring out what styles should (suggestively) go into global.css, or default etc.

Many thanks :)

Yes, please do. It would be such a help for beginners (like myself).
Love omega, but a bit daunting at the outset.

Priority:

Critical

» Normal

There have been discussions around how to implement a beginner friendly css starter into the mix and it is in the roadmap for the 3.2 release. We are trying to do it in a way that doesn't alienate the more advanced users that prefer the blank slate to begin from as well. It's a delicate balance. It is coming though shortly.

changing from critical as it's a normal request that is being addressed and not critical (which means drop everything and fix immediately in my book)

Also (just to throw into the mix jake) - What if we had a newb starterkit. Same html5 starterkit but w/ the more stylesheets enabled on install and the css starters.

I can create the starterkit if you'd like
