i recently tried my own hand at creating a XOOPS theme, lol, by modifying a dreamweaver template:
http://movetoxoops.csmapcentral.comi'm really disliking the theme that i was working on, haven't had time to work on it further and i really suck with html and css.
the only thing i really like about the theme, is the header graphic created by daddycool (good CS mapper, graphic artist, etc), and the nav bar which came with the theme
anyone who would like to gimme a quote of how much you'd charge to create a xoops-compliant theme for me, i'd appreciate it
also, as an alternative to payment, i'll host ya for free (like i do for daddycool ->
http://www.whosyourdaddycool.com), if that's what you prefer
i want something lite, so that it can be fast loading from pretty much anywhere, lol.. since it's php+mysql, as the site grows, it'll slow down by default, as you can see at
http://www.csmapcentral.com (this is what i'm about to revamp/replace). the server is located in texas, i'm on the east coast (usa), yet the site still seems to load too slow, and i don't want to still have slowdown when i move to xoops, at least, not by the theme.
i prefer the html to be comprised primarily of
statements, and most/all of the design should take place in the css file if possible.
daddycool has suggested in the past that the default color for the theme be a kinda orange/yellow-to-grey scheme (like in the header), and i'd also like to see variations of green, red, black, blue.
there's no rush on this, but faster it gets done, faster you get paid. graphics for the forum, downloads module, weblinks module, etc, would be needed, to keep a nice flow
preferred design is to have a max of 1 block columns, i don't want the 2-column design that is prevalent on too many sites right now (including csmapcentral).
post here, pm me, or email me with any replies
thanks.
btw, i kept referring to DaddyCool, he's a good friend that has made a few suggestions, fyi.
