In the spirit of promoting more community involvement around dasBlog, Ben Scheirman is hosting a contest to see who can come up with the coolest theme for dasBlog.
As well as the winner walking away with a $100, this contest can serve as a good introduction to the way that dasBlog implements its skinning architecture.
If you are feeling artistic, or you are in need of some cash to buy a new book, spend a couple of hours and get your theme submission into the contest.
Happy designing!!
