Blast off with the new Rocket Theme by @Moodleman for Moodle 2.1/2.2
5...4...3...2...1... The Rocket theme by Julian Ridden (@Moodleman) is a customizable theme to make your site less Moodley (and it succeeds).

Julian Ridden (@Moodleman) has just updated/released his new "Facebook" theme for Moodle which is based on the core Decaf theme by Lei Zhang.

Course Format for 1.9 and 2: Grid View
This is a really unique course format that allows course topic sections to be identified with a specific image. The Grid View allocates an image to each topic area and when clicked from the course homepage a nifty popup appears highlighting the information held within.

A few post-iMoot thoughts
Last weekend I was one of 100s of participants of the 2nd annual iMoot (online Moodle conference) event which was hosted and organized by Pukunui Technologies. Most notably the behind the scenes was managed by a tireless Julian Ridden (@Moodleman) and his staff of session moderators and helpers who got each presentation off without (mostly) a [...]
