JBoss Demo Theme, Default Theme

[markygoldstein]

I think that JBoss needs a more serious looking portal theme...

JBoss Demo Theme, Default Theme

More geared towards portal businesses. Good examples are Microsoft Sharepoint and IBM WebSphere Portal.

Don't underestimate the success bringing influence of good and professional looking design.

Well it a matter of taste...

I personally really like the default theme bundled with 2.6 (Called renaissance).

But if someone comes with Web Design skills willing to help, i'm all ears open.

Well, the one I have seen is the JBoss Portal Demo
http://portal.demo.jboss.com/

It's artistically interesting, but I think it is not targeting the professional business audiences.

Is there a theme directory? (like portlet swap...)
How do I look at the renaissance theme? by installing?

Ok, i see.
Portal.demo.jboss.com is outdated (That's JBoss Portal 2.2)

The new one is unfortunately not available online.

You should install JBoss Portal 2.4 or JBoss Portal 2.6 (Get the Portal+AS version, then it is just a matter of unzipping and running run.bat)
