A Blog in Suburban Glory: Web Design Ideas and Inspiration
Launch of the Scruffy Desk free Drupal theme
This is my seventh and most accomplished theme to be given away free under a GPL license. Again, it's based on a grid this time 970px wide with 12 columns and 10px margins.
As the title suggests, it is visually supposed to resemble an untidy desk.
It is possible to have two or three columns in the main section and three or four columns
This theme is particularly graphics heavy but I've done everything I can to optimise the images to ensure that they aren't too big.
It uses extensive CSS3 so as to be expected it shines brightest on the more modern browsers, although it should look fine in all versions of IE.
It even uses CSS for the yet-to-be-released Firefox 3.6 and Opera 10.5 – how's that for cutting edge! ;)
You can download the theme here or see a live demonstration of it here.

"The line is the alpha and the omega, both in painting in construction in general. The line is path, passage, movement, collision, facet, edge, joining, transection."
