I picked up on it because of an idea I had. I was thinking of redesigning the docs site. Looking at it, it appears that it is completely designed with TP blocks which is not true. Bloc used mootools (javascript) for the design of the blocks and another js script for the menus...I forget the name. But you can press F12 and select any section to see what I'm talking about.
Back to the redesign of the site... Since it looks like a collection of blocks it would be great if we can do that with TP...especially within an article! This is why I've been asking about this. It would be so much easier to design any site using any blocks that you can create with TP! It would also blow the competition out of the water!!!
I'm sure illori is not up to the task but am wondering if Sayaka is... We just can't keep using these old scripts and themes when we know they will not be updated! We're just spinning our wheels in the mud and will be redoing the same work over and over when the time could be spend on other things like support. Right now there is not much support and this is the time when we should be looking at alternatives and getting things done while we can and are not busy with support like TP used to be.
Back to redesigning the Docs site... Since it would be easier to use HTML and/or PHP (HTML would be a lot easier), I was looking at HTML programs that allow you to immediately see how your design would look WHILE you are working on it. Most of those have an editor that you can drop n drag images, etc. making it very easy without a lot of coding knowledge. So far, I've narrowed it down to this...unless you guys know of something better and easier to use...

Does any of this make sense?
