New ETS Look and Feel
Posted on March 3, 2008
Filed Under Announcements, ETS Web
I just updated the look and feel of the ETS Site! I spent a couple hours yesterday working on extending a stock theme to have some very ETS-like elements. Taking some inspiration from some work that Alan Levine did for the NMC’s Pachyderm project, I used nothing more than a stock WP install, a couple of plugins, some theme work, and some new thinking as it relates to content organization to get something going very quickly. A big thanks goes out to Jason Heffner for helping me get the theme installed and the permalink structure working the right way. Over the next few days I’ll start to round out some of the other pages here.
The two sections I’d like to do a little custom template work for are the ETS Staff page and the ETS R&D page. I’d like to drive some of the page elements from content being published blog style with categories. Keep watching as we’ll be updating it on a regular basis.

Not seeing any feedback listed yet…is it possible it isn’t showing up? My immediate impression is that I’m finally sitting at the adult table. Thanks.
More after I explore, and others have a chance.
Hopefully sitting at the adult table is a good thing!
I like the clean look however, I would recommend adding some images throughout the space. This may be what you’re planning on future updates. I also like the idea of incorporating a social rating system. We’ve got so much going on it would be interesting to see how others view us.
