Custom theming

In addition to creating great downloadable premium themes, TopNotchThemes also does custom graphic design and Drupal theming for clients. Our dedicated team of on-staff Drupal themers are fast and professional, and they have deep experience in a wide variety of project sizes and styles.

Some clients come to us with a completed design needing theming, while others need a full-service solution — from graphic design concept to completed Drupal theme. We’ve also customized several of our premium themes for clients for a more economical, yet still customized, solution.

Now we also offer custom theming based on our acclaimed Fusion base theme, which delivers incredible ease-of-use and point-and-click customization to your site administrators.

Cost

The cost of a fully custom theme varies depending on the complexity of the design, number of pages, and other details. However, a very rough estimate is that most projects are between $3000-$8000 for themes where you already have the photoshop design mockups, or between $5000-$10000 where we do the design as well as the theming. If you have a smaller project or one with a budget under this range, let us know and we can provide references to other Drupal themers who may be able to help.

Portfolio

Here are some examples of our work. Other clients also include projects for Dartmouth University, WoodWing, The Fulbright Program, Foreclosure Radar, Tzolkin Corporation, and the W. J. Towell Group.

Graphic design & theming

Intelligent Utility

The client’s development team came to us with the requirement for a Fusion-based design that had the clean look and dense information of popular news sites today, while complying with numerous ad dimensions. Luckily we had wonderful wireframes to work from to create several mockups. We ended up creating a custom 975px-wide 15 column grid to meet these requirements. Additional mockup.

BubHug

This client had a strong idea of design direction, with a color palette and several product and category sketches already created which were scanned and needed to be incorporated into the design. As an Ubercart site, it also required extensive theming of the catalog and product pages. Visit site

Design Tribe

This project was a redesign of an existing site, keeping the existing layout and some of the same color palette, while updating the look to a more modern, web 2.0 feel. The site has complex, integrated functionality, so we worked closely with their development team in order to theme the output as required.

Washington Media

A small project to create an elegant, corporate design and theme quickly for their site. Some similar sites were provided as examples, and our team created the design and theme, as well as provided assistance with implementation. Visit site

Joshua Brauer

Josh wanted a theme that radiated his personality for his new blog. Combining these elements was a challenge but the end result is a beautiful custom theme that is his very own! This theme is based on Fusion, but shows its very un-grid-like nature with the highly organic elements used here. Visit site

The Lackner Group

This client is a financial software provider for a specialty market. They needed a clean, corporate look for their market. Several design mockups and a theme were created based on extensive wireframes created by Lullabot.

PoseTech

PoseTech needed a design refresh of their current site while migrating to Drupal — an updated look without a complete overhaul. Taking the style and layout of their existing site into consideration, we gave them a more modern look and theme to match.

Theming from provided mockups

CCIM Institute

This Drupal theme was created from mockups provided by the client. Visit site

Genesys

Genesys provided mockups for this site, which we themed and also created custom Panels for. We also had a consulting role on this project, providing Drupal implementation assistance where needed. Visit site

EthicShare

This project, funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and built by the University of Minnesota, was to create a Drupal theme based on several mockups from the client. Extensive theming of the Organic Groups and Calendar modules were also done. Visit site

Customization of TNT theme

Blueprint Education

This customization of the Sharp Sales theme was done using Blueprint’s branding to get them a "semi-custom" theme. The Skinr module was also integrated so the client had an easy way to apply styles as needed. Visit site

InPerfectOrder

A modification of the Bubblr theme brings out InPerfectOrder’s sparkling personality!

HolidayLEDs

This is another customization of the Sharp Sales theme. We also provided some consulting on improving the shopping experience for Ubercart, implementing small changes to increase conversion rates. Visit site

Cancer Connections

The client performed many customizations of the Fresh Start theme, but TNT came in to provide some additional assistance with theme customization.
