I found a better theme at the Drupal Theme Garden. The theme is called Ad Novus. I had to tweak the font sizes a bit, and I took out the textured page background and shifted the banner up a bit (the original had way too much screen real-estate devoted to the page banner).

I've re-installed the various modules I needed to get Audio (for Knotty Geeks) pages to work again, but there is a big problem with the Knotty Geeks View. I converted it to Drupal 6 format, but it didn't work, and now it just shows the entire blog. The new AJAX-based view editor doesn't work at all, and just spits out a Javascript error whenever you try to do something. I changed it to a non-AJAX view, which apparently a lot of people do, but now I'm at the point where I am completely unable to comprehend what any of the options mean. I think the Drupal people know this, as they suggest installing a help module on the View editing screen. Thanks, guys, but couldn't you just have made it usable in the first place?

The other huge thing, and something that really annoyed me, is that my book, Edge of Infinity, got completely lost. The pages are all still there, but the chapter structure just disappeared. Apparently this is a known bug! The solution involves exporting the entire table from the old database, and importing it manually! And nobody is fixing the problem! Unbelievable!

I really like Drupal, but it seems like they are pretty sloppy when it comes to writing the upgrade scripts for new versions. It weakens my trust in their whole code maintenance strategy, to be honest.
