Can anyone port this template for me?

Post by Col. Kurtz »

Ok surfing the web I found this template I really like, but it's for Wordpress but I prefer using s9y. I have no porting skills that's why I ask for help. I would be pleased if anyone would help me out and port this to Serendipity. I would even be willing to chip in a couple of Euro/Dollar and it can be added to the repository free for everybody. I have no idea how hard it is to port it, I just like the design/colors whatever (btw: I completely dislike the header image, but I can replace that myself).

This is what I am talking about.

Hope there's a volunteer out there...

I think a lot of people are trying to wrap up other projects in anticipation of the upcoming s9y 1.2 release and/or a bit tied up porting other themes. The theme does not look overly complicated, assuming the graphics can be reused without licensing/copyright issues, and the primary background image was designed to look decent on a repeat-y basis.

Having said that, be patient - if someone has the time and talent, they will chime in. I, for one, simply do not have the time right now unless you are offering a ridiculous amount of cash!!! :lol: :lol: If that is the case, then 20 people might suddenly be beating down your door... starting with me!!! LOL!

d_cee has a nice theme that might interest you ... have a look at this:

oh yeah it's just the usual "I want it- NOW"-reflex. I've decided that this is the final point that will make me learn css. I'll try to figure it out by myself. When I learned some HTML years ago the book (it was a very good book) mentioned css on like the last 3 pages of a 1000 page book. I've never gotten so far.... But I ordered a new book now, I hope it's as good as the authors website.
