Hi Steve, I'm not aware of any other source of module themes than the gallery. There are only 47 themes so far, which seems like a lot, but quite a lot of them seem very similar. I've not really looked around much though because I like to make my own.
I've made two themes where I've done the design and an illustrator friend of mine has done the banners. *My site:* http://www.nogginbox.co.uk *Sample site for Orchard Module contest:* http://orchard06.webmatrix-appliedi.net/ You may notice that the both designs share a lot of common stuff, but that's sort of nice because it shows that they're related. Orchard ticks all my boxes as a developer and I think it will play a very important part in many of my projects. There are lots of varied modules being written, but I think it will probably be a little while longer till we get as many varied themes becoming available. -- *Richard Garside* Web developer and designer Old Broadcasting House, 148 Woodhouse Lane, Leeds, LS2 9EN. *Web:* www.nogginbox.co.uk *Email:* [email protected] *Twitter:* _richardg *Skype:* NogginBox On 25 April 2011 12:31, Steve Schofield <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Richard, > > > > Thank you for the response.
