Re: Best theme for Ubercart?
You can't go wrong with Steph's themes. http://www.topnotchthemes.com/browse?filter0=**ALL**&filter1[]=16&filter4= You won't find more for less, especially for ubercart.

Re: Best theme for Ubercart?
I don't know how you can say $350 is too much? Do you know what you are getting? Getting a great theme specifically done for ubercart for that price is a steal. I don't know how you would justify anything else in terms of time spent and such. Well unless you had thousands of dollars to have a custom one built.

But at this moment, it is for this small project i'm working on. Anyway, any other suggestions?
Adapting themes from alternative shopping carts
This is somewhat following on from the discussion here. Given that Topnotchthemes is THE place to get one of the few ubercart themes for an ecommerce site, how easy would it be for a competent coder to adapt say an OSCommerce or zencart theme for use with ubercart? We want to get the site up and running quite quickly and so we would like to be able to choose from the many themes that exist for other carts. I've seen a lot of themes that would be appropriate for displaying our products but they are all based on other shopping carts. I hope this isn't too naive a question guys and I would be grateful for your advice.  
Re: Best theme for Ubercart?
Thanks for the kind words, Thill While I (obviously) am a cheerleader for the value of our Ubercart themes, I completely understand that a $300 theme isn't in every site's budget. I think any good Drupal theme that already themes things like tables and forms nicely can be "Ubercart-ized" in a few hours, so you'd probably be best off finding a general Drupal theme that has the look and feel you want and then spend some time polishing it up for your specific needs in UC. As for demos, most of the sites being done by our customers I've been in contact with aren't on public production sites yet, so I can't give specific URLs.
Drupal Themes
There is always the option of using the many free themes that are a part of Drupal. Most can be modified to fit specific needs. Some easier than others. Here is a site that was done using one of the Drupal themes. http://www.alaskahandmadejewelry.com/ Maybe not as fancy as a paid theme, but adequate for this need.
Ubercart and other shopping cart themes
Thanks Alaska, thats a good point. However, we don't mind paying for an appropriate looking theme for our products but that's the problem. Whereas there are thousands of OSCommerce and Zencart themes for ecommerce sites, I have only found one ubercart theme and that's available from Topnotchthemes. If the others are easily adaptable, it would give us a lot more choice from which to find a theme that matches our product more closely. I would be very grateful if anybody can advise me on this. Thanks once again.

Thanks once again. Are you ok with changing style sheets and whatnot? If yes, i think any Drupal theme could fit you. Start here - http://drupal.org/project/Themes You can also request professional help either on the Ubercart Forums or Drupal Forums. There are people who do this kind of service for a living. Another option would be to check the Live Sites - http://www.ubercart.org/site - and contact the webdevs who posted their work there.
Thanks doomed
Thanks for the advice doomed. Those are really good links, I'm sure to find somebody to help us out.
I used Sharp Sales from Top
I used Sharp Sales from Top Notch Themes for the DIWD demo site and was highly impressed. They've added some great Ubercart specific styling into the theme. I was able to go from nothing to what you see on the demo site in less than a day's work, and having an easy to use theme made a huge difference. In other words, my opinion is that it's worth the price.

Re: Ryan wrote:I used Sharp
Loving your themes as well! Of course, there's always ZEN... all you have to do is make a simple theme in Photoshop and slice it up... the whole theming process can be done in a few hours. Heck, it didn't take me long to do it for my site http://www.killerjerseys.com
Fusion Core?
Steph, Ryan, Anybody? Is it necessary to have Fusion Core enabled in order to use Acquia-Prosper? The code for Fusion Core is in my sites/all/themes/fusion folder but it is not enabled. Acquia-Prosper is the only theme enabled and all seems to be working fine but I may be missing something. Is that the right way to configure it? Thanks,
New to Drupal & Ubercart
Hi Ryan, I'm looking for an Ubercart theme and I really like the Sharp Sales Theme. How difficult would it be for new comer like me to put together a site similar to DIWD demo site (just the look and feel & I'm still learning. I'm able to create content type, pages, product classes & etc. But I'm struggling with Drupal Themes in trying to put content and blocks where I wanted. If this theme is easy to use and will allow me to put something like DIWD together in matter of days I don't might paying for the theme. Thanks
Re: New to Drupal & Ubercart
I didn't have to make any modifications to the theme, actually. It comes equipped with different styles for different regions. The only thing I had to do was resize the package graphic for my front page's advertisement region, but that image comes w/ the theme and you can always just copy what I have on the demo site. 
I used FrameWork and made my
I used FrameWork and made my own theme. It was for 5.x however and it does not transfer to 6.x so I am looking at the Prosper theme right now. I really like the layout and rounded corners of Prosper.

Hi Ryan, I would like to put together an e-commerce site up and quickly (something like your http://livetest.ubercart.org/diwd/). What route would you recommend for me to take? Thanks for your help.
Theme different from main site?
Is there a way to set things up so the Ubercart store is using a different theme than the main Drupal site? Quint

Hey Ryan, Can you make the code available for site DIWD so we can learn and understand how things are put together? Thank you
Different level with programming
Absolutely agree with you, but for us who are not so good at programming so it is not so easy. 
Re: Best theme for Ubercart?
Zen Theme is a fabulous place to start if you know something about Themeing, if not pick something from the Drupal Themes pages and try to choose something that looks well supported, as in it has been around for a while or is clearly well made to W3C standards. 
Re: Re: Best theme for Ubercart?
Best classic Drupal theme (free) to use with Ubercart ? Hi, Can you tell me what is the best Drupal 6 Theme (a free theme available on Drupal.org) that you have tried and used with Ubercart ? Thanks.
Re: Re: Re: Best theme for Ubercart?
Also there's thedrupalmarket.com. TopNotchThemes does a great job, but there's definitely room in the market for more people Also thedrupalmarket is a marketplace so if you're a themer, you can upload your theme and make money (think apple app store but for Drupal). Good luck in your search!
Acquia Prosper is the best
Acquia Prosper is the best free theme for Ubercart.  
Any Zen-Sub Theme
If you need flexibility nothing beats creating your own theme. Zen is by far my favourite framework for Drupal theming because it provides you with too much HTML and CSS selectors, which make creating your theme much easier. I worked with a TopKnotchThemes a couple times, and while it provides you with a good base, I found it less appealing than making my own with Zen in the long run. Zen 0 hours = Nothing Zen 10 hours = 95% Usable Theme Zen 20 hours = 99% Usable Theme that you love. TopNT 0 hours = 90% Usable Theme TopNT 10 hours = 94% Usable Theme TopNT 20 hours = 95% Usable Theme that you can put up with.
