Blog Week 9 – Altering a Theme

Ah, this will be a short post. (Surprisingly) My alterations were done as quickly as possible–perhaps that’s where the frustrations came. At one moment I would be like, “Oh! I can do this! I’ll use that!” and dive into old files and Photoshop, only to remind myself a moment later that I need to keep it simple for time’s sake. When it came to dealing with the code, I just stuck to playing around with CSS. Perhaps somewhere down the road I’ll better know how to create flexible themes that make full use of what Drupal has to offer.

I guess I’ll post before and after pictures sometime in the near future. For now, this is it.

Er, I did, though, manage to somehow mess up my local installation of Drupal after I designed the theme. The reason for this continues to elude me. At first I thought it was because I changed the file names, but I changed them back and nothing happened. I even removed the files, and still nothing. It’s still all, WSODing. I imagine I’ll have to reinstall it. Bah!
