Hi,

Just wondering if there is a list of sites which use the Graphene Theme. I’m not a very creative person and I never know where to start when customising a site (colours and layout). I’d like to see examples of how it’s being used on other websites, it would be very helpful and give me a good idea of how I can customise it myself.

Thanks for your help,

Roy.

There is always the showcase:

https://forum.graphene-theme.com/graphene-showcase/

But afaik, there is no list of sites using Graphene. I run into one every once in a while. I suppose I should start bookmarking them, because it would be/always is interesting to see how people use it.

As for colors and layout, I always refer to The Web Designer’s Idea Book, which is now in four volumes. I own the first two and those are more than enough to give me ideas.

Thanks Kenneth,

There are some good examples in the showcase, although there also seems to be a lot of websites which arent using Graphene any more. By the way, are there any Graphene colour presets available to download anywhere?

Thanks,

Roy.

I’m not aware of any color presets to download. If there were, I think we might post them on the Graphene wiki.

I am currently compiling a list of sites using Graphene. If Syahir doesn’t mind, I’ll post them on the wiki; if not, I’ll make a list on my blog.

Go ahead and add them on the Wiki, Ken. That’ll be quite useful to other Graphene users. However, if possible add the rel="nofollow" attribute to the links so Google won’t falsely interpret the links as spammy.
