Drupal resources
Hi guys,
From reading posts on this forum, I've noticed that many members are big fans of the Drupal CMS. I've only previously used Joomla! so I'm giving Drupal a go on my next project, which is essentially a directory of websites.
Can anyone recommend anywhere for good Drupal resources?
Also I'm looking for a cool free Drupal theme.
And finally, can anyone recommend a good links directory mod for Drupal?
Cheers,
serpico

With large software such as Drupal (wordpress, phpbb etc) the official website is often the best place to get many addons, mods, themes, help and support and also links to other sites with more of the same.
Drupal is no exception. If you go to the download section of http://www.drupal.org/ you will find many extras.
You will be scrolling down the available themes for hours, and there are thousands of modules.
Have a look for yourself though, as you might find something else there that interests you for your site (probably something that's not necessary but you want it anyway
)

Drupal links directory module
Drupal Themes and Theme Garden Demos (note: themes are displayed by Drupal release number)
Some of my favorite themes are Ability, Four Seasons, Twilight, and I use a customized stripped-down version I created of Framework as a blank palette to create a custom theme, eg theme from PSD
Drupal handbooks
Drupal videos on lynda.com
Many lynda.com videos are by subscription only ($) - but you can usually watch the introductory vids so you can decide if you need to go further.
Mastering Drupal also has excellent videos (I highly recommend the SEO series)
