Theme development

I put up a screenshot here: http://www.urubetas/themes/beachmarine/screenshot-urubetas-problem.jpg

I have modified the bluemarine theme and everything is working beautifully, except for when you click on Create Content and select any of the choices (page, book, group, story, image). When the form loads up, the right hand column gets shoved off to the side. Now, sometimes, if I refresh the page, it snaps into place, but not always.

I am a programmer with 20+ years experience - C/C++, JAVA - and four years of PHP. I have been developing with PostNuke for about 3 years now, and am making the switch to Drupal for one upcoming project, and probably more.

As a developer, my design and artistic skills are on about the level of a 3 year old, a crayola, and the family room wall.

I'm looking for an experienced Drupal theme developer to help out on an upcoming project, and probably more down the road. The first one is a jewely e-commerce site, so it will need a jazzy, diamond ring kind of look.

This is probably a stupid question, but I heavily modified adc.theme and was interested in posting it as a theme project. Of course, it would keep the references to the original theme developer. But is this appropriate or should I submit these changes in some other way?

Have really enjoyed using drupal, though I had a few rough spots at the beginning. Now I'm glad I stuck it out. Do have one question I need help with however...

I'm trying to use php code in the "primary links" section of the Chameleon template but they don't take. I use them in several pages, and blocks, but really need to have more control over my primary links. Any suggestions?

I posted this in the main how to section but no answer. Maybe I should have posted it here first. Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give.

Caveman

PS. I'm using 4.5

I'm using the Leaf theme, and find that it works fine using Firefox. However, when I use it in IE6, everything works ok EXCEPT that when I have a book page in view, the sidebar blocks get put down at the bottom of the screen, to the right hand side, instead of being at the top of the sidebar where they should be.

I'm not much on CSS and although I've tried hacking this about, I can't get it to work.

Any ideas welcome

I am in the progress of switching from the cumbersome Mambo, to the wonderfully simple Drupal, but I need a dark theme. My old Mambo theme, rhuk_planetfall, was a grey/orange theme, and I love the colors but am no good at HTML or CSS. Is anyone working on a dark theme or know of one for 4.6?

Thank you, Protoss
