nice list
This is a great list. I'll step up and offer to cover theming with Fusion and Skinr (I'm willing to bet that Erik will be able to contribute some of his knowledge as well).

As a matter of fact ...
I would like to contribute to this topic! Fusion has become my base theme of choice and i've integrated skinr into a couple "one off" themes. I would very much like to be of assistance in this discussion.

Need reminder
Ryan,
Thanks for the demo Saturday. Your help is always appreciated. You gave me some hints using the percent sign and made it look easy. When I went to recreate, my mind turned to dust. Can you remind me where the %1 went in my views? Thanks. Contact me directly if you need a reminder of what you showed or need to access my site.

Arguments
Hewie,
Since we were discussing changing your filter views to argument-based views, I was showing that in the settings for the Argument, you can set a dynamic title. There is a Title field, and below, there are instructions for using the %1.
For example: Say you had several categories of links. I would make it "%1 Links"
This translates to:
"Drupal Links"
"Volunteering Links"
"Community Links"
etc.
