I am very close to using Drupal for my site, but I'd like to see more examples of sites that are built on Drupal that don't look ANYTHING like other Drupal sites - in other words, sites that are completely outside the design box. I'm just burnt to a crisp on the relentness uniformity of design on the internet and while I love the functionality underlying the CMS, everything is starting to look like one giant Wrodpress -Joomla - Drupal blog with slighly different color scheme and logo.
Well I just finished developing my first Drupal website, http://www.fulltuckracing.com using Drupal 6.x. The site's pages are built on the panels with the store built with a modified Ubercart. In order for the product links to point to the correct "product detail" page, I had to modify the module code to output the correct path. Anyway.. check it out and let me know what you think :-)
This past March, I decided it was time to put my skills as a Drupal developer to use and launch a new online business. I knew early on that I wanted this business to be product-based, and after several weeks of playing with different ideas, I settled on selling premium Photoshop layer styles. It was the perfect opportunity to combine my love of photography and Photoshop with my passion for web development and Drupal.
Several months of product development later, StyleWorks was born. The site runs on Drupal 6, and integrates with FastSpring for e-commerce capabilities.
Designing the site: To Zen or not to Zen?
After iterating through several hundred designs in Photoshop, I finally had the look I wanted to go with, and it was time to make it come alive in Drupal. But first, a key decision had to be made: Start from scratch, or go with Zen?
