Where can I find theme developers?

Okay, I tried it myself and do not have the skillset nor time and patience.

I have a wonderful custom site template written with flash and html (flash being the header area). I want though to have Drupal power all of the content and menus, but since I am not a developer I am having a VERY rough time and getting very frustrated. I have decided that since this is the company website I cannot afford to muck around anymore. So, I decided to come here and see if I can find a developer that can turn it around quicker.

Thanks

Use of icons in BLIX theme

In wordpress, the blix theme makes use of a number of small icons to indicate downloadable files, authors etc. The same images are also present in the theme/blix directory of drupal but they are not used by the theme? Is there a way to show these icons when using the blix template in drupal, as well?

Theme nearly completed just working out some small bugs

Here is a pic of Marvin Black: http://celticess.bellator.net/files/marvin_black-updated.jpg

Here is a picture showing the problem I'm having changing the colour for 3 things: http://celticess.bellator.net/files/marvin_black-colorissues.jpg

Here is the problem I'm having with the recipe module alignment(note this affects more than this theme I'm making it at least affects box grey, marvin, and possibly adc. It doesn't seem to be an issue with democratica): http://celticess.bellator.net/files/marvin_black-recipeproblem.jpg

I also need to know how to make all input boxes black with text light grey. I got it to do that for the searchbox by altering drupal.css. I'm not sure where to stick things to make it do it in all add content spots. With the search though you'll notice in the colour problem pic that the search button also seems to of got coloured(I want it to use default button colours). With the IM I want to change the colours there to be the same as for other imput boxes. If anyone can explain to me how to do this stuff that would be great. This is my first theme though I'm working on a few others. I'm making a varient of persian but I've hit a big problem with the drop down menu being transparent(causes visual eww when text overlaps with stuff under the menu). I've given up on the version of unconed I was making. Despite changes to it it's not really changing so til I know themes better I'm leaving that one be. I'm also trying to make a theme from scratch looking in other themes for hints at how to do things.

Layout Generator?

I saw one online but I can't remember if it was from here in a post somewhere or something I'd just stubled across. Anyways I'm trying to find a layout generator so I can make a new theme. While I know some basic css and php I don't know much of the fancy stuff. I'm self taught (and yea I know I should RTFM but I learned linux hands on and most other computer stuff I've done on PC's and I did try to find something on it but couldn't in the handbook here). Anyways I'm not sure how to change the layout in drupal. Though I'm guessing it's done in the style sheets somehow.

Working on a red/black persian varient and need help with the topmenu

The top menu that shows content is having a problem. The drop down's are partially transparent in some menu's that come down. This is causing text overlap that makes it unreadable or just makes things look gibbled. I'm also having a problem with width of it as you can see the searchbox just goes outside the border of the menu. Here are two different screenshots to show the problem.

MinHeight problem with IE

I knew IE had problems with minimum heights, and now I'm experiencing them. You can see my problems with IE at www.misguidedthoughts.com

Anyone have any ideas? I've tried setting padding-top, margins, ect, but nothing worked.

My node.tpl.php is

print ($sticky) ? " sticky" : ""; ">
if ($page == 0):

endif;

Info

print $name
print $date
  • print $links
  • if ($terms != ""):
    Filed under: print $terms
    endif;
<?php
if( $main && $node->readmore )
{
$content = "$node->teaser

" .
l( t("read more"), "$node_url", array( "title" => t("Read the rest of this posting."), "class" => "read-more") ) .
"

";
// remove "read more" link from standard node links
$my_links = $node->links;
if( $my_links )
{
// this would be much easier if the array returned by module_links() was indexed
// see let _link() return structured link info
$rm = preg_quote( t("read more") );
$my_links = preg_grep( "/$rm/", $my_links, PREG_GREP_INVERT );
