NewSchool Learning: Standards Based Moodle Designs

I’m glad to say that two of our free themes are now completely up-to-date for Moodle 1.9. While Autumn received only minor tweaks, Serenity was given a complete overhaul with fresh images and CSS.
Both themes are 3-column, fluid-width, and really quite small, so they should still work quite well on older installations.

Enjoy.

I had two goals coming into this summer:

Redesign the site.
Double the number of themes offered.

With the exception of a couple small bugs, the first item on my to-do list is done. So, now its time to start making themes! The goal is to double the theme offerings in the next three months. Wish [...]

I’m in the final stages of testing a complete redesign of this site. Be prepared for some changes here in the near future.
Update: So, things have clearly been updated. I know some parts are still a little ugly … I’m working on it. Please let me know if anything is just terrible!

We will offer free upgrades to all who have previously purchased a theme from [...]

I have updated the Elegance theme to version 1.1 to fix some general layout issues I was experiencing in IE6. If you have already purchased the Elegance theme and would like a free upgrade, please contact me with your purchase information (name, invoice #, etc.), and I will gladly send one to you. [...]

I’m just now finishing up our newest premium theme for Moodle. We’re calling it “Prestige,” and it can be seen on our new two-column demo Moodle installation.
Prestige is a 900px fixed-width theme that hides the left column from typical users who are unable to “turn editing on.” The effect is a two column theme [...]

We will be taking proposals for custom work between now and the end of December. Time is limited, but we would like one or two new projects to be completed for the first week of January. Contact us if you have a project you think we’d be interested in.

After a few hours of making things fit, it looks like we’re ready to start blogging on WordPress.  Visit frequently to read about our adventures in Moodling!

Pardon the drastic change in the look and feel of this blog versus our site. We are migrating our blog from the RapidWeaver engine previously used to WordPress, which should allow us more flexibility and freedom to blog more.

Due to my increased responsibilities during the academic year, I will be unable to take on any new custom themes for awhile. While this will not interfere with any custom themes I am currently working on, I don’t want to stretch myself too thin in the future.
I will, however, entertain requests [...]
