Post-push Stats

[ninetydegrees]

-- Styles: 47 styles submitted and 27 live. Yay one new style! (And I have another one from TAMM patched and almost ready for review. Progress!)

-- Themes: 608 submitted* and 486 live. OMG. That's 74 new themes in less than a month! What have you guys eaten?!

-- Styles with fewer themes than others are: Boxes and Borders, Modish, Skittlish Dreams, Stepping Stones, Sunday Morning, and Tabula Rasa. The new style also needs lots of themes so I hope it'll inspire you. :)

As usual, people who'd like to learn how to patch themes can raise their hands in a comment because we have new submissions already. Can we aim for well over 500 total live themes for next month? I think we can at this rate...

* not counting the new submissions.

Let's see. I have eaten sugar, sugar. More sugar, lots of sugar, have I mentioned sugar? Oh, and caffeine, and some balsamic vinegar I swear is made with crack for how good I feel when anything made with it is part of the meal.

If you're aiming for over 500 total live themes, then I can justify another two or three of those days where I do over 20 themes in two days. This makes me absolutely, superbly happy ...

_{Now why couldn't I have managed to do two of the 20 themes a day days while the seed account sale was going on ... Oh well. Better this way anyway.}

Coffee.

And I can certainly help contribute with the 500 live themes. I'm planning on posting some more themes this weekend.

How much tech know-how does patching involve? I use the Quick and Dirty guide for the colour themes because I'm kind of technologically backward :3

I suspect I'd be capable of patching themes (and want to finish mine and submit it anyway).

So, um, yeah, *raises hand*

I know that I am Wired On Summer, as far as finally learning how to do basic color themes! :)

I'd like to try theme patching. I usually use a mac with OS 10.4.11.

Would it be possible (or advisable, I don't know) to put a link on the front page to the newbie guide on patching? Perhaps foxfirefey can weigh in on this?

I have updated my style browser with all the new themes, woo!

I have found a couple niggles, I don't know if you'd want to fix them yourself but they are also things we can assist others for patching practice with:

* Modular -- heart of darkness -- some colors not in color format, have 4 letters instead of 3
* Brittle -- Pressed Flowers -- needs # for some colors
* Five AM -- custom reading colors not working -- my guess is the CSS selector is just much more specific than the custom reading color CSS selector and so it overrides it
