Had a good mini presentation on my OpenAir Drupal theme just now.

This was basically a quick talk on the work I did porting the OpenAir WordPress theme to Drupal. Although this was my first theme with Drupal I think that I will be doing others, it’s a good system, easy to work with, and lots of resources (with ever-more coming online).

Thanks to Yuetsu for asking me, much appreciated.

Several months ago I was approached to port one of my WordPress themes () to Drupal. Bear in mind I’d never played with Drupal whatsoever, but I said yes just to get some experience. It worked well, although there are some things that can’t be done, with my level of knowledge at this point, at least. I imagine I’ll learn more soon and catch up.

So this weekend, I was asked to give a chat on Skype on how I ported the WP theme to Drupal, so it will be this Saturday afternoon sometime. The Drupal camp is in Portland Oregon I believe. Should be interesting.

Getting in the spirit of things, I’m going to be porting another one of my WP themes to Drupal tomorrow to get ready for this, going over some of the things I’ve done so I know what I’m talking about. I’m thinking a fairly easy theme, like , or .

So I’ve been burning the midnight oil for the past week or so on lots of work, but last night and tonight it’s been on a new Thesis child theme that I’ve been concentrating on. It’s a port of my OpenAir WordPress Theme to the Thesis framework. I mean, I’ve moved it over to Drupal, so why not to Thesis? You can see it in action on my test site for my Thesis themes.

Just one or two little things that are driving me up the wall, but if I do 30 minutes here, an hour there, I’ll get it ready. It should be up and running in the next day or two! I’ll post when it’s done.

In the meantime though, I’m already starting to think about the next one that will be ported over. Perhaps a Paypal Thesis theme? :)
