We are pleased to announce the release of a new theme for Geeklog called Nouveau!  Nouveau is a fixed / fluid width, blue & grey neutral theme intended to be a suppliment to the Professional theme that is included in a default Geeklog v1.4.1 install.

We have tested it in Firefox 2, IE 6/7, Opera 9, and Safari beta 3 on Windows. In other browsers, your mileage may vary. Check out a  working demo at http://nouveau.glfusion.org, download it here.

Attention all developers!!!

• Do you have some nice designs that you would like to share, but are unsure about diving into all the .thtml files to create a complete theme?
• Are you interested in being part of the development of one of the fastest growing plugins for Geeklog?! 
• Want to cure cancer and develop world peace?!!  (okay, we can't promise that! ...But we can promise peace of mind to site admins not wanting to edit their theme by hand! :-)

As Chameleon nears another release, we are asking for your help!  We are looking for contributions of theme elements (called stylepacks) to be included in future releases of Chameleon!  Don't delay!  Contribute your style code today!  Read on for more details...

Webstruments is a layout originally created by Karl Golka at http://webstruments.com. With his permission, I created a fixed width with a right block port of the original, and adapted the layout to create a fixed width left block version, as well as a fluid version with both block columns.

Multiflex3 is a fixed width, neutral green and grey business style layout originally created by Gerhard Wolfgang. It can be found at http://www.openwebdesign.org/userinfo.phtml?user=gwolfgang

There are a lot of options that you can browse in the "multiflex3/multiflex32_original" folder that take advantage of different block colors and other effects. I included all of the original CSS so you should be able to plug-n-play new class properties in the .thtml files if you so desire. Also, I included a collection of public domain country flags for use in the top header. To use them, simply unzip the ones you want and upload them to "multiflex3/images" folder and make the appropriate change in header.thtml.

Finally, this theme supports the Forum plugin v2.7, with its layout options in "multiflex3/functions.php" with some navbar layout enhancements that didn't make it into Blaine's final 2.7 release, but which will be incorporated in future updates.

I have tested it in Firefox2, IE 7, Safari public beta 3, and Opera. In other browsers, your mileage may vary.

Small Studio is a layout originally created by Luka Cvrk (luka@solucija.com). I had to redesign the blocks so that it will take advantage of Geeklog's ability to dynamically hide either/both columns. I also changed the menu hover images a little bit.

Overall, it is a relatively neutral design that uses only two colors. Hopefully it will be a good base for others to start with when building a small business oriented website. I can envision a static page replacing the usual story layout on the homepage with links to software, plugins or other goodies.

I have tested it in Firefox2, IE 7, Safari public beta 3, and Opera. In other browsers, your mileage may vary.
