Boxed In: 4 themes

[laitaine]

An embarrassingly long time ago, I submitted a layout and a bunch of themes and decided I wanted to use it as a learning experience for patching styles. A few small things got in the way (like finishing my thesis, packing up my life and moving to another country) but, finally, finally - thanks to much patience and hand-holding from ninetydegrees - I'm about done with patching! Of course, I probably could have done it a whole lot quicker if I hadn't kept tweaking the layout under the guise of "testing". Or tweaking themes. Or making new ones. I guess this is an unfortunate side effect of patching my own stuff.

Anyway, before I put the patches up on zilla, I thought I'd post the new themes here:

Layout: Boxed In

Mint Choc Chip · info · source · preview

Oceana · info · source · preview

Spring Fling · info · source · preview


I also tweaked all the Boxed In themes I submitted previously, and renamed two of them:
Rose -> Antique Rose
Silver -> Silver Spectrum


Image info:
- The background images were purpose made by me and are released under the terms of my CLA.
- The arrow and tag icons are recoloured versions from the FamFamFam Silk set, the originals are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 License. I don't know the ins and outs of licensing, especially as I've not made these graphics myself, only altered someone else's work - but I'm sure original license + CLA makes everyone happy. Also, as the site already uses some silk icons, do I need to add this link to the layout's resources, or is it taken care of elsewhere?

That said, it is possible for you to take what I've submitted here and use it straight away if you have a paid account.

I think a paid account isn't absolutely necessary. If I'm not mistaken, free users can have at least one custom layer and one custom style.

There's sometimes a quick process of emptying out extra layers and styles that might have cropped up and adding this. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I believe this is how I tried FlexSquares my first days on DW.

Thanks for clarifying this. I wasn't sure if free accounts had limited access to layers so I checked... using my hack. On those if you have a free account and try to add layers it says you're not allowed that functionality. I foolishly assumed it was the same on the main site. Obviously not.

Sorry!
