Short Talk: Drupal 7 Themes (part 1) - "Get the rundown of what matters" - LA Drupal Manager, Chris Charlton will demo details of how themes in Drupal 7 are both different and similar to the way they are built in Drupal 6. One amazing new feature is the inclusion of the ever popular plain-white "Zen" Theme Framework built in and renamed "Stark" for Drupal 7. There are over 40 new theme layer features and changes. Come see what these changes are. Chris Charlton is the author of "Drupal: Creating and Editing Custom Themes" video course on Lynda.com, which can be viewed at http://tinyurl.com/theme-drupal (there are free video samples available to non-subscribers). This is now going to be a multi-part talk.

Drupal Gardens is built on Drupal 7, which is due for release this year.

Is anyone looking for 500GB SATA drives? I need to upgrade our office's RAID and am looking at getting Seagate Barracuda 500GB SATA drives in bulk on eBay. While it would come out to about $50 for each 500GB drive, we only need 4 out of the ten that are being auctioned. If this is something you're interested in, let me know privately or in the comments here and we can meet at one of the local Drupal meetups.
Read morePath Finder discount available to the Drupal community
Exaltation of Larks is happy to offer the Drupal community a 25% discount code towards Path Finder by Cocoatech. Path Finder is an awesome file manager that we at Exaltation of Larks find invaluable for our development work. It's a complete drop-in replacement for the Apple Finder on Mac OS X that makes the Finder look like it was made for children by Fisher-Price.
The discount code is LADRUPAL and it will work until the end of April, 2010. No one at Exaltation of Larks is getting any kickbacks from this promotion. It's purely an offer to the Drupal community to make people's work easier.
