Theme development

Hello,

I administer this Dave Matthews Band fan site. Currently it runs a home-brewed php CMS, but after creating two successful Drupal sites I'm convinced it would be a better solution.

While I am concerned about the vBulletin integration (considering vBDrupal), I'm also concentrated on maintaining the look and feel of the old site. If you have a look at the page currently, I have a three column layout with a header and footer. There's a different layout for article pages.

Hi all.
I'm quite new to drupal, but I've managed to create something interesting with drupal.
Now I'm going to get rid of the Language block, and create my own in the header of my own theme.

right now I've created this:

Trying to figure this out and found in the docs
http://drupal.org/node/364

The menus that are displayed on the top and bottom of the page are configured in administer > themes. Select the configure tab and scroll down to Menu Settings. The primary and secondary links can be defined here, using straight HTML. If the primary links are left blank your navigation will be created based on your installed modules.

yet no matter what theme I am on this does not seem to be an option. is this outdated?

HI there , i have installed the module taxonomy term,
right now i have some terms defined, and this calls up a certain theme.
each page has a term which falls on a certain theme
like this i can make sub sites in one site.
Now that i have the terms defind and make the pages, i get title of the page as page title on the site.

for instance i have the term "clean" and i make a page called "clean_main". I Get clean_main as title of the page.

i gave the page also a discription like : "Intro to the clean site."

Using the slash kin I am trying to get a right sidebar active. I was going to hand jam it in but I noticed on the page.tpl.php template that they already have

Heya guys.

Okay, basic skinning issue I am running into just trying to get the quick and dirty bits down. I am using the slash theme but I am pretty sure this may apply across the board.

I am trying to make the header bar (with the logo) loose it's vertical height (I am embedding this within my normal site under the header so trying to buy some realestate here)

HTML wise it is expanded because there is a <br class="clear" /></div> at the end, causing the expanded header bar.
