Today I launched a new project that will port hundreds, probably thousands of Joomla, Wordpress and other CMS themes to Drupal.
3rdWorld Themes will become the home of a large repository of free, high quality ported-to-Drupal themes.
The idea has been nearly a year in the making. Phase one was the development of a highly flexible and extensible starter theme called Genesis. I needed a theme I knew like the back of my hand and that I could bend and twist to suit most themes. Unknown to most of you I also built a rather wicked grids based starter-theme but caught a lucky break when Ninesixty came on the scene. I mention these two themes because all the themes at 3rdWorld will be subthemes, either of Genesis or Ninesixty.
UPDATE: I have added both Zen and Blueprint themes as possible base themes for subthemes, this should open it up to more themers and provide some competitive spirit:)
Phase two was amassing a gigantic repo of free and open source themes that were not only free, but beautiful as well. I have around 500 to-be-ported at the moment but believe me when I tell you there are thousands, possibly in the realm of 3000+.
