Skinning SharePoint with Custom Templates

Posted on March 27th, 2008 Mitch Milam  Print No comments

I haven't really done much with SharePoint since I started working with CRM.  Basically, my brain can only hold so much information and I decided to fill it with CRM instead of SharePoint.

Anyway, I still read up on SharePoint and have people that I know that are neck-deep into it.  I was having a conversation with my friend Dave this week regarding changing the appearance of SharePoint.  I found out that PixelMill is now carrying SharePoint templates.

I have long used PixelMill for purchasing web site templates for various products like FrontPage and it's good to see them expand into the SharePoint market.

Dave just purchased a SharePoint template, or Skin, for his site, InfoCinch.  It's a fairly clean and simple layout but it will give you a idea of what you can do with a third-party SharePoint template.

He also has started to integrated some Microsoft Silverlight video into the pages in a simple way. The initial video is an overview of the site, but it looks interesting.
