Hi Himmat, are you all doing anything with icons? The Moodle icons are long overdue for an overhallsad.

This is what I've done with the nuvola iconset from kde-look but it would be great to get a complete new set of Moodle specific icons goingsmile.

That's nice work you have done with kde icons. I wish there was some way of embedding icons in Themes. That way each theme could have a different icon-set!!  Have you tried our themes? Would appreciate your feedback.

Hello everyone and a big thanks to everyone making awesome Moodle themes!  Michael, I love what you did with the nuvola icon set and your Moodle page; however, did you use the icons as .png files or did you have to convert them to .gif files?  I tried to do the same thing with other KDE icon sets, but only .gif files would work.  I know this is a "rookie" question, and I hope you guys will excuse my ignoranceblush

Very Nice work.

I am very new to Moodle and  its program development.

I would like to learn and would ask for the recommendation for a delelopment platform for the Theme Pages -   and  the other PHP  components

I am considering Dreamweaver or GoLive  as  the base deleopment platform.

Are there any recomendations and Tutorials  Moodle  what would get get me up and running very quickly

Thanks

Is GoLive still shipping with Zend Studio for PHP? If so I'd recommend that.

Dreamweaver is what I use from habit, but I loathe the MX 2004 version's auto-docking and tiled windows. I have no idea who at MACR thought that reverting to 80s era interface concepts was a good idea.angry I'll be switching to something else as soon as I find time.

If you are on a Mac, DW is better, but slow, most of the Mac programmers here use TextMate.

MACR now belongs to Adobe..so I read somewhere. We may see an interesting hybrid now.

We use Dreamweaver MX 2004 for the html and php files and photoshop and fireworks for graphics. We will be putting in a few tutorials soon.

In a way, I wish I hadn't switched to 1.5. I've now limited myself when it comes to these amazing themes! I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas - can't wait for new themes to come out!

Thanks, Jeff! Much appreciated!

(By the way, if you are particularly bored and (dare I say) sad, feel free to check out my Moodle site (not long up and running) at www.beat365.com (then click Moodle, obviously)

Nothing as amazing as your site, I admit. But it's early days. smile

Hi Graeme. I am very exited. Hadn't thought of course specific themes yet! Can you let us know your url?

Re: FREE Moodle Themes

Hi Rene Louwers. Can I have your url. Would like to see so many themes in one moodle!

Re: FREE Moodle Themes

Of course Himmat, although my site is in Dutch. Go to http://ecoach.nu and have a look. If you want to log in to some courses with other themes you will have to log in or need a key. I've sent you a mail with login details.

Rene, I see a problem with Formalbally as you have used it. The sideblock headers are darker and the login block plus the one above it have black text that can't be read easily. The original formal bally block headers look like this (pic below). Just my humble suggestion smile.

Re: FREE Moodle Themes

Himmat,

I think that is because Formal Bally is made for 1.4.5+ and not for 1.5. I can adjust that, but perhaps Formal Bally15 is coming out soon? Then I wait for that version.

Thanks for your advise, the original version looks much nicer, and I already like my version a lot.

Hi Himmat,

Thanks for your peachplate theme.

This is what we did with it: http://www.econtent.lu/moodle/

In the near future we'll have our own design but until then, your theme helped us out.

Many thanks.

Ciao
