History
  First, thanks for downloading my theme contribution for Drupal 4.7, my first
theme attempt using PHPTemplate. I have developed this theme so that I can help
give back to the Drupal community by providing a unique (non-ported) personal
blog option for first time Drupal user. Likewise, while utilizing as many hooks
into the Drupal core, themeing engine, and popular modules, it is my hopes that
I can help others learn how powerful and extensible the Drupal system is. The
theme also passes XHTML Strict validation. To maintain that, I suggest you read 
through the conventions (link below) the Meta theme offers.
