Hello everyone,
I am pleased to announce that my new Drupal theming blog - http://mydrupalblog.lhmdesign.com - is now live.
My aim is to give people a designer's perspective on Drupal theming, and destroy the myth that Drupal theming is difficult.
Please have a look and let me know what you think.
Thanks,
Laurence.

Druplinars.com is a new site that offers online training seminars for the Drupal community.

I'm pleased to announce the 1.0 release of the Ad Module available for Drupal 4.7.x and Drupal 5.x. Thanks to everyone that helped by beta testing and reporting bugs! With 1.0 out the door, now it's time to utilize the framework that's been built to provide many more useful advertising features.

The ad module is a powerful advertising system for Drupal-powered websites. It supports the random display and tracking of graphical (banner) and text ads. Ads can easily be displayed in themes, blocks, or embedded in site content. The module records comprehensive statistics about when and how often ads are viewed and clicked, including a plug-in module for generating graphical time-based reports. Ads can be assigned to multiple owners, each of which can be assigned their own set of permissions. The ad module is fully integrated with the views module, offering fine-grained control over which ads are displayed where and to whom. Installation is simple by design. An API is provided allowing the development of additional functionality and integration with other Drupal modules.
