I would agree that if we're not looking at incorporating the versatility in the main theme, then one might consider the road Bruce has taken here. Much of what I would want in WordPress is there, but you doggone near have to learn where to make adjustments by being a code writer. Let's try to remain pithy here. I would like 2010 (ok I'm using numbers) to allow me to to use a background image for the blog content page. Right now, you can't do that. Try adjust the "background" in the panel and add your own background file. It displays in preview but when you look at your page all you can see is the edes of the border because the backgrounds of the blog content, sidebar, and footer are not transparent. So you'll see a little edge of the background peeking through but not like, say the Motion theme, which will display the background in such a fashion. Now is this a problem with the 2010 theme or WP 3. BTW, another question...I'm using WP_RC1 on a commercial page with Twenty Ten running. I've been editting the css to try and see what I can get away with. Will installing the nightly build on that site remove/replace those edits with a new css file or do the wp-admin files just get replaced? Bear with me everyone. I'll have some good recommendations coming.

Thanks
Doc

Subject: [wp-testers] Child themes not allowed on wordpress.org


I tried to submit (stupidly, I suppose) my Twenty Ten child theme to the standard WP org themes site, and it couldn't get past the first stage. I sent a support question, and got this response:

Right now the theme directory doesn't support child themes.  This is
something that we've talked about off and on and will likely be
enabling in the future.

A lot of the talk about Twenty Ten is about how easy it is to build child themes for it (and it is!), so one hopes "the future" is as soon as WP 3 is released!

But this kind of stuff really is part of the over all beta test, I think - the themes group has to be ready for new child themes for Twenty Ten.
