The Drupalace theme: download-ready!

Drupalace Zen themeWant your site to look sort of like this one? Then I've got news for you:

Your condition can be treated. Seek professional help. Now.

... Still here? Well, as long as you're staying, feel free to sample my first attempt at a downloadable theme: DRUPALACE ZEN, an unhealthy reimagining of the popular Zen CSS theme. (Download at bottom of page.) 

Naturally, you won't want to keep your site looking like this one; it's my hope that you can use the theme as an easy starting point for something more creative and wholesome.

Warnings and the such:

Before using the theme, please do cast an eye over the included READ ME. And just for the heck of it, why not back up your database beforehand, too? As a matter of principal, that's all. Oh, and double-check the door locks, and count the children. Just sayin', you know.

Your feedback and suggestions are welcomed!

I liked the post idea at your site. The important thing for a site dev beyond brand-new beginner level is not what themes look great as-is, but what themes customize nicely!

See my follow-up at Ready to please: Drupal themes that customize good.

Drupal mini tip

Need to disable a Drupal module but can't do so from within the site? (This could happen if the wayward module is preventing you from reaching the Modules form!) Look for the module's entry within the "system" table of the site's database, and set the module's status to "0". 

(From within phpMyAdmin: Select the "system" table from the column of tables at left. Click the "Browse" tab. Find the row for the module you wish to disable, and click the "pencil" icon in that row. In the resulting form, input "0" for the Value of "status", and click the "Go" button. Done!)
