Just launched the new AIGA Austin website, did a complete overhaul on the design and developed in Drupal.
Designed on 960. Also used Drew Wilson tipTip, jCarousel, and Gedy Rivera’s Social Media icons.
Drupal Troubleshooting Tips
So I am no Drupal expert but I have run across a lot of time savers when working in Drupal, specifically theming.
Here are a list of things you should do if something in Drupal seems broken:
- Clear the Site Cache: http://yoursite.com/admin/settings/performance
- Clear Views Cache: http://yoursite.com/admin/build/views/tools
- Clear Browser Cache
- Check for updates: http://yoursite.com/admin/reports/updates
- *Check Permissions: http://yoursite.com/admin/user/permissions
Every time you log in it kicks you back to the home page
Clear your Cookies in the Browser, specifically delete your domain Cookies.

Using views, when you are logged in content looks different or is up to date but when you are logged out it is not. Clear your Views Cache

If you have any more let me know, I will add to this list whenever I find something new.
Drupal, a leading open source content management system, is at a crossroads. The same traits that have made Drupal a strong framework are likely to create a glass ceiling for its growth and acceptance.
Drupal is the product of a devoted, closely knit developer community spearheaded by Dries Buytaert. In many ways its evolution and structure has mirrored the Linux community as led by Linus Torvalds. Its name is owned as a trademark by its founder, there’s a nonprofit foundation named after the application… the comparisons abound.
The Admin Module for Drupal 6. This thing is so great, I found out about it through using Open Atrium which is amazing as well. I am really excited to have a really awesome Admin theme to use for once.
I cannot begin to tell you how excited I am for some designers finally getting involved in the drupal design and UX. Mark Boulton ( ) has done an amazing job, well the whole crew at d7ux.org. There are some great things happening with Drupal and I cannot wait and see how it will end.

Enjoy spread the word.
I am pretty much crapping my pants over Atrium.
“Open Atrium is a team portal starter package. What makes it unique is that it’s extensible and customizable. This means that you - and everyone - can develop new features for it, add other modules, change the skin, totally re-factor the workflow, and do anything else that you can think up to make Open Atrium meet your exact needs. Check out the Developer FAQ to get started.”
