Ew! I have to create a Drupal theme

Presenter(s): 

Themes allow you to change the look and feel of your Drupal site. - Drupal.org

And while that's nice and neat building a Drupal theme isn't always that straightforward. You have to consider: content types, contrib modules, cck/fields, template files, CSS, JS, preprocess functions, etc. Some things I'm hoping to cover are:

  • Sub-themes and why you might use one
  • Quick and dirty theme upgrade from Drupal 6 to 7
  • Adding conditional JS or using jQuery plugins.
  • Creating a responsive theme or mobile specific theme
  • Theming Drupal forms

This talk will cover both Drupal 6 and 7.
