Shaping WordPress Themes
Replacing the Thematic Menu with a DropDown List of Categories
Who's Behind ThemeShaper?
My name is Ian Stewart. I’m a professional designer, and WordPress enthusiast, trying to shape how we think about the exciting and dynamic world of WordPress themes.
Back in 2006 I took my first tentative steps into the world of theme design. I didn’t know it at the time but those first steps would change how I think about design completely. Since then, I've done my best to change how we all think about designing WordPress themes.

What Theme is This?
You're looking at a custom WordPress Child Theme based on the highly extensible and, quite frankly, ninja-like, Thematic Theme.
Thematic is a WordPress Theme Framework that gives you all sorts of options for customizing your WordPress theme in a super-smart, bulletproof fashion. Better yet, it's Free. Get started with it today by finding out more about it.
Powered by WordPress. Built on the Thematic WordPress Theme Framework.
Cozmos Labs has a great tutorial showing how to replace the default Thematic menu with a dropdown list of categories. Included with the tutorial is a free Child Theme, CatDrop, perfect for those of you interested in making Thematic more like a magazine-style theme or wanting to see how to make a dropdown menu work.
