Which theme is the best "base" theme to begin customization?

I'm looking for a good "base" theme that i can generally default to when i start making custom themes. What is common? What do you use? What do you suggest?

Promoted to front page and "sub-frontpage" for review section

Hi Everybody,

I'm in the middle of testing Drupal to replace my own manual labor on my website. During this process I want to add a music review section - which I currently have on my website. Adding the reviews are not such a big deal - but It would be cool if I could "promote" it so a sub page for the review section - as well as the front page.

Is there any way this can be done?

Administer *some* nodes...

Before I go hacking node.module, I'm wondering if there is any other possible way to do what I need to do.

The drupal access control system has a lot of issues, but I'm running into one with the 'administer nodes' permission. Enabling this is, as far as I can tell, the only way to allow a user to choose to change the publish options for a node. Of course, it also lets a user edit any single node on the entire site (BAD!).

Prevent editing of certain profile fields?

I'd like to store some information about users in their profile. However, this information needs to be un-editable by that user (i.e. I have an internal Member ID in a different database, plus a couple of other fields that should be viewed but not edited).

(1) Is there a way to do this using the profile.module? Using CSS? (I'd prefer to avoid Javascript if possible)
(2) Is there a module that I've missed that already does something like this? CiviCRM is out for us.
(3) Should I role my own module?

Thanks!

customize event module to suit my needs

Hello Ya'll,

It took me a while to actually get the Event Module up'n working - but I finally managed to do it. But then I see, that I don't want it to look like it does now.

I want it to be a concert calendar, and I want some of the body to be shown as well. I don't like the (hours) and (term) shown.

This is what I mean.

Is this possible? It would be so sweet! ;-)

favicon.ico ...

Er, this is actually a trivial question, but...

I had a customized icon file for my site, and it worked in 4.6.3; but when I upgraded to 4.6.5, the icon ceased to display on firefox tabs/address bar/etc. Any thoughts?
