REB Creative

On 8/3 local Drupal folks met at the Red Line in Capitol Hill. It was well attended about 10-12 people. It was great to meet with others in a imilar line of work. Some folks are as new as I am to Drupal. There was plenty of philosophical discussion which I appreciate.

I learned that ImageAssist is a great way to pull images into content. I'll be adding that module today and taking it for a whirl. In addition I'm going to try using CCK to create a new content type for my portfolio page.

I need to figure out how I'm going to conver the Footwear site and database into Drupal. That should be a fun challenge.

There were several people who mentioned browsercam. I recently paid for 1 month service there and it's interesting to know that other people are using it too.

Here some extra notes from paper and pen (oh! who said that out loud... I used paper and pen instead of my computer?)

Plan on a little research before adding any contributed module

Consider using Contemplate module and name files like content_"type".tpl.php

To really learn themes try building atemplate from blank instead of copying and hacking.
