A theme-picker feature has been on my short-term TODO list for quite some time now… so here goes!
You can now customize (to an extent) the look and feel of Gregarius by creating your own CSS-based theme, which can be easily packaged and dropped into the /css/ directory, then selected from the Configuration section of your Gregarius Administration area.
Gregarius mini-themeing-tutorial:
Go to the /css/ directory and copy the “default” folder to anything you want. Lets say “my_theme“, for example.
The “my_theme” directory should contain two CSS files: look.css and layout.css.
Use those files as a base to create your own (better-looking) design.
In the Configuration section of your Administration area edit the rss.output.theme key and pick “my_theme” from the list.
if you feel so inclined, send me a copy of your theme for inclusion in the official package
Oh, you’ll also have to update from CVS and play some SQL-tricks if you wanna give it a try before 0.4.2 is released (anytime soon):
insert into config values (’rss.output.theme’, ‘default’, ‘default’, ’string’, ‘The CSS theme to use’, null)

Hehe, nice :P need another theme to try now :P (i will ask a friend to make one :P)
Good luck trying to make some sense of my stylesheets. :)
Besides, I’d like to try working on this template-based theme engine (à la WordPress) this evening, so all this css-based theme business might become obsolete before it was even packaged into an offical release ;)
