Theme development

Hello! First time poster here.

I love the pushbutton theme to death, but I needed to redefine some theme functions, so I decided to port pushbutton to PHPTemplate to suit my own needs.

It works perfectly, as I did nothing else to it but port it to PHPTemplate.

The default theme of drupal.org is cool, even if I used bluemarine, pushbutton and other cute themes.

However simply link to http://drupal.org/project/Themes, I don't know which one availabled is the default one used by drupal.org. Perhaps mere given the name of each theme is not enough, but need to provide the screenshots of them.

Please give me some advice, thanks very much!

I am looking for someone who can help develop a lightweight but cusotm looking drupal 4.5 theme for a political site i'm working on.

Looking for a 2 column layout mainly - menu on left side. Importance would be tweaks to the forum code for some of the color layout similar to here (alternating colors for posts.. possible use of image module for sig or avatar setups and such..)

I've been trying to port over the Wordpress theme "Kubrick", does anyone have experience doing something like this? My attempt so far hasn't even shown up in the theme listing on my site. :(

It am looking at the overview of the new template system, at:

http://drupal.org/node/11774

It kind of makes sense that drupal should be shipped with both xtemplate and phptemplate versions of default styles.

So could somebody implement box_grey for xtemplate,
and pushbutton for phptemplate?

This would make it much easier for folks to decide where to start from, and should accelerate the development of additional templates.

Is there a Block out there that would give users a pulldown-type menu of themes to choose from and remember (with a cookie?) which they used for their next visit?

If not where should I look for how to code this myself?
