Scripting News points to a new weblog dedicated specifically to the release and propagation of themes for Manila.
“Themes change the way Manila sites are designed, allowing proficient designers to share designs with writers, techies and Manila newbies.”
Although I’m glad that non-designers will at last be able to pick from a decent set of pre-built templates, I find the fact that the design of Manila-based sites is all of a sudden “so important”. The visual design of an information publishing tool and the output from that tool should be thought about and field tested before it’s released. Sure, the underlying architecture of the software is paramount to the success of such a tool, but the fact that they’re just now making such a big deal of the user experience is laughable.
