Quick MailMan Customization
Packages
You can use any of these template sets as a base to
begin your customization if you like. See the quick
customization guide for directions on how to set things up
rapidly. This is a listing of quick customization template packs
that are currently available:
Blue
This set is a variation on the default blue-and-ripply theme that
ships with MailMan. The big difference is that the image buttons
on the left side of the templates have been replaced with simple
form buttons. The appearance of the buttons is controlled in the
"s_style.css" style sheet.
You can easily modify the entire interface by just replacing the
logo image and tweaking the style sheet file.

Teal
This is basically the same as the above except with teal as a
starting point. Some people may remember that for the first five
years, Endymion's official PR look was a teal very similar to
this. We changed the look recently, but a lot of sites out there
are already using templates based on the first template theme.
If you are one of those sites and you don't want to confuse your
existing user base too much then this template set might work
for you.

Slate
Some people like darker backgrounds, but reading comprehension
rates are very low if you make your text lighter than your background.
This template set is a decent point to start if you want to build
an interface that doesn't necessarily use white as a background
color. If you start messing with the background color then don't
forget to check your installation using a system with the display
set to low color capabilities, since the background color in this
template set doesn't correspond to any color from the traditional
web palette.

Red
We're honestly hoping that nobody uses this template set, but
perhaps there is an appropriate use for it out there somewhere.
This one came about when Ryan started running out of ideas for
other template themes. If you come up with a modification of any
of these template sets that you think is worth sharing with the
world then let us know and we'll be more than happy to give you
appropriate credit if we decide to list your work here.
