U Templates
Has anyone attempted to port the U Relations Templates over to MovableType? I didn't notice any going through the directory, but some UThink bloggers might appreciate having those available.
I might have a whack at it in the next few days. Having made my own templates in MT before and worked extensively with the U web templates, I should be able to figure it out. Let me know if you're interested or have questions.

Well, the UThink home page uses the WebDepot templates and runs on Movable Type, so yes, it can be done. However, I was under the impression that personal pages hosted by the U of M could not have any of the U of M marks on them. So, I have hesitated in creating new templates for UThink users based on WebDepot. I'm sure, though, that these kinds of templates would be very useful to departments that are using UThink blogs in some sort of official capacity.
Sorry to ramble on like that. It just isn't as cut and dry as people think.

Good point. I'm so used to my job where everthing has some sort of wordmark or logo on it... though, like you say, they could be useful for folks with "official" business.
Aaron, one more thing. Have you tried the UThink template changer? If you haven't you should check it out. Login to UThink and then click on Templates in the left hand menu of your blog. Click the button on the top that says "Try the UThink Template Changer." I'd be interested in you checking it out. It may give you some ideas of how to create other templates. If you do, I can easily put them all into the Template Changer and share them with the world.
Well, the world of UThink users at least :)
