Wanna patch?

[ninetydegrees]

We've had lots of lovely themes submitted in the last few days - thank you, designers! - and I thought it would be a good opportunity to ask if anybody wants to try and patch one but has never dared to or simply doesn't know where to start. Don't worry if you've never done that before or never written any code. I've been in your very shoes. :) I know it looks scary and complicated and impossible but I promise it won't look that way once you've done it. If you're on Windows, I can walk you through the process from start to finish. If you're on a Mac or Linux, I'm sure someone else will volunteer to help you (and the process isn't that different so I may be able to help as well or ask the right people questions). If you'd like to give it a try, simply comment. You can also PM me.

I'm so sorry for taking so long to sort these points. My life went crazy busy.

1) Sorted.
2) Sorted.
3) Uh, yes, you are missing a very important something: I am a moron. I have fixed things so that this fact is not so readily apparent ;)
4) Oh yeah, I'd forgotten about those. I meant to take those out - I wanted any images to be my own overrides not default. I figure it's best to keep with the standard images as default that everyone is familiar with to avoid confusion.

I think that's everything addressed, so.... next?

My turn to be sorry. I completely forgot to answer you and then work kept me very busy.

Unless I've missed something, the next step is to submit your layout to Dreamscapes so that it can get tested.

No problem!

I ended up tinkering more and *did* add in the images after all (but set via props this time) and now I think I'm done so I have posted to dreamscapes for testing - eeep! Thank you so much for all your help so far!
