Theme Change!

Posted March 2, 2009 - 1:20pm by Jeff

I decided to switch my website theme from Painted Wall to Acquia Marina, a newer theme that's only available for Drupal 6. Although I liked Painted Wall, I was trying out some different themes and this one really stood out.

Some of my favorite features of the new theme:

  • It's green and blue (my favorite colors)!
  • It has a very open, clean, and modern feel
  • There are a whole bunch of block regions (for menus, custom content, etc.)
  • There are icon sets for various blocks

I also revamped my logo using Photoshop. It's a phoenix, but it's also shaped a little like my initials (JP).

My friend Kasey needs to start blogging to create a professional presence online. Since she'll be graduating soon with a Master's in Telecommunications, it's important for her to be able to reference her blog as a continuous personal web investment.

More and more it's important for soon-to-be professionals to create and maintain a suitable online reputation. With Facebook, MySpace, and other social networks becoming the prevalent form of personal online networking, it's difficult to seperate one's personal and professional lives.

One of the cool things about having your own website is that you have total control over its content, unlike social networks where other people can post directly onto your profile.

One of the cool things about using Drupal to develop your website is that it's easy to set up, especially after having a couple of previous installs under your belt.

Keep and eye out for Pearl Lee going live in the next couple of days.
