I have been working on a new version of the BTS website using Drupal. The site uses a complete custom theme, which will be released on Drupal next month for all to use. The site has been designed to be comliant with XHTML 1, CSS 2.1 and will be WAI compliant as well. Any suggestions, problems or comments with the site, please let me know by using my contact page.

I have been getting feedback about the themes I have created or ported to Drupal.  I do welcome any constructive feedback, which you can make by using my contact page or filing a report on the project page at Drupal.  I am also composing a list of all sites that use one of these themes.

If you are using one of my themes, please leave a comment stating your nathe theme you are using and the web address where it is being used (note, it will not appear straight away, it has to be moderated).

Light

List of people and sites using my port of Light:

You will note from an earlier post that I like website development, teaching it and doing a bit for others.

I have spent some time today updating two of my Drupal theme ports.  I have updated the Andreas 02 theme (also see project page on Drupal.org).  The update corrected a minor API call issue for Drupal 6 which I missed on the original release.

I have covered various parts of website design before, however, I still get asked several questions about what I teach, what would I suggest to use for content management, etc.  This post is a brief outline on my thoughts.

Standards

I teach website design and have done for some time.  I always teach to the latest standard, firstly HTML 4 then 4.01 then XHTML 1 then XHTML 1.1 and so on.  For the past two years XHTML 1.1 and CSS has been the standards to which I teach to create semantically correct websites.  In addition PHP and MySQL are used as a backend to interactive sites in my classes.

I have updated my Light theme for Drupal. I have also ported another theme, which will be used on another website at a later date.
