Experimental project

This is a sandbox project, which contains experimental code for developer use only.

This is a theme I have created for websites for my skier friends and brother and sister. You can view a working site running this theme at http://rhymeswithbrake.com/.

About

This theme is built on the HTML5 Boilerplate (the version's from around Dec 2010). It's a fixed layout, based on three 290px columns with 10px space between them. The main content is two columns and there is a right sidebar that is one column. There are seven main navigation links up top (at least there's space for seven). I use Home, Bio, Blog, Videos, Results, Sponsors and Contact. Above the right sidebar there is a twitter feed. The handle can be customized in the settings of the theme. There is a two column wide featured video on the home page that can be customized in the theme's settings.

Video support

This theme provides support for a custom content type "video". This should have a text field of "field_video_url", a list option field of "field_video_host" with the options "youtube", "vimeo" and "facebook" and a long text field of "field_description".

Future plans

There are several things I'm planning on doing with this theme.

Link to a backup and migrate restore file to add the custom content type, custom views, custom block settings and other settings that I use.

Simplify the video content type so you don't have to select a video host.
