Brand It!: SharePoint Branding, from Start to Finish - Find out more
February 11, 2009, 1:00 PM - 4:00PM CST
 
During this session, Heather Solomon will show you how to brand your SharePoint sites, from start to finish.  Combining master pages, page layouts, CSS and content types, you'll see how to take a design comp and basic taxonomy information and apply it to a MOSS 2007 site.
•    Critically examine design wireframes to determine if there are any SharePoint "gotchas"
•    Create custom master pages from a base master page definition
•    Create a custom theme
•    Design CSS variations so that your web site's departments/sections can have their own color scheme
•    Use publishing workflow features to avoid publishing unfinished pages, and allow non-designers to create new content on your sites

In this 3-hour session I cover key branding concepts and brand a site from start to finish. It is a whirlwind of branding activity that is a both great intro to or refresher for how to brand a SharePoint publishing site.

Also, be sure to sign up for our mailing list.  We will soon be announcing new classes exclusively taught online, and I am cooking up a class that you won't find at any other SharePoint training house.  :-)

Cheers everyone!
