Another developer used jQuery Uniform in a project I am building, and it has really made me a much happier person. Uniform styles "hard-to-reach" elements: Selects, Radios, Checkboxes, and File Upload Inputs, the latter being what I am most happy about. If you have every tried to style these, you will know that it is not an easy undertaking and requires blowing away the element visually and replacing it with images. Uniform does all of this for you AND gives you the .psd files to easily create your own theme. Enjoy saving lots of time and impressing your co-workers.

Drupal 6 had its own quirks when trying to use ImageCache and the Drupal l() function, which after many projects, had been embedded into my brain as normal. Drupal 7 was released with a slew of new features that drastically changed common Drupal 6 theming practice.

This example of code is used in my theme's node--article.tpl.php. It is printing the preview image for the full sized image inside of a link so that it can be rendered full inside of a FancyBox overlay.

Recently, someone showed me LESS, a dynamic stylesheet, and never having used any type of CSS framework, I decided to give it a try. To add it to your site it is as simple as adding the javascript file in your header, renaming your stylesheet with a .LESS file extension and changing the rel to rel="stylesheet/less".
