Announcements

I'm currently a member of the Ubuntu California and a junior at Chapman University in Orange, California. I'm currently helping to bring back my school's ACM chapter, and have begun setting up this year's schedule. I'm trying to have a few nights per month dedicated to different events, such as contributing to Mozilla and Ubuntu, movie nights, and presentations. I'd like to have one speaker per month arrive from different aspects of the community to present about topics they love.

Some people wanted to get our cool LA Drupal pamphlet in digital form. So, here it is in all its PDF glory.

The Los Angeles DrupalCon 2009 proposal has been updated at http://groups.drupal.org/node/9422

Please review it, ask questions and/or comment.

Thanks!

For those interested in seeing my slides from my DrupalCamp Colorado (2008) presentation, Flex/Flash/AIR Interfaces for Custom Content Types in Drupal they are on SlideShare.net at:

For the past several months I have been quietly learning about Drupal while simultaneously building our site.

We just finished the 1.0 version and I'm looking for some good, honest, yet constructive feedback: http://artsforla.org

I posted it on the main Drupal Showcase (http://drupal.org/forum/25) section as well - but since the LA folks seem so darn smart and savvy, I thought I'd through it out to you as well.

If there's another place I should post, please let me know as well.

I'm looking forward to meeting folks at the July meeting.

Cheers!

I ordered business cards for the LA Drupal group and its members. I constantly have to mention our URLs and contact info, etc., and figured I wasn't the only one having to pass the word on. So, I made some cards. I'll be donating them to the user group at our next meeting (July) and will be offering members short stacks to take home so they may spread the love.

We are hosting a 2 day basic Drupal training on August 16-17 2008. The training will take place at the Holiday Inn in Long Beach at the Long Beach Airport. The instructor will be your own Chris Charlton. Space is limited to 30 participants. Lunch will be provided. Registration is $300 per person.

For more information and registration visit http://www.drupallearning.com

Syllabus will be available soon, we wanted to put out the date as soon as we could.

We are looking forward to the next L.A. Drupal meeting!

Thanks!

Here are the slides from the Work Habit presentation at the June LA Drupal meet-up. Thanks again, Adam and Ben for coming down to LA to meet and talk with our group. The presentation was very awesome, and very informative. We hope to see you guys at the upcoming DrupalCampLA later this year.

I just wanted to let everyone know that I created a LInkedIn group for our Local Drupal User Group. Just another way to get the word out and promote all the cool events we've been having. After the group is approved I will post a link!

UPDATE: The application is available for download. Adobe® AIR™ required.

XTND.US releases a Drupal 6 Theme Starter application for Drupal users. Freeware for Mac, Windows, and Linux desktops. This is truly for anyone who not type theme.info files by hand for Drupal themes.

This application generates the .info file for your custom themes and sub-themes. Why memorize all the things you have to type into .info files when you can point-and-click and make your theme's .info files in seconds not minutes.

View the new demo video for Drupal Theme Starter 1.0
