btw, just as a footnote, the use of the [? print ?] syntax is an artifact of the Drupal Textile support that wouldn't let me use proper entites for angle-brackets. Take my advice, avoid Textile; I'm deeply bound to it now, and it's a long-term pain in the backside.

For those new to Drupal, you usually just want to get started with a site that doesn't look like Drupal.org. Here's a quickie guide to getting the site you want out of the code we all share.

To start off, a Drupal distribution contains many alternative _themes_ but this is really a misnomer: the 'themes' listed in the admin pages really means _theme engines_ -- Drupal's modular design has led to many different alternative ways of producing output, each with it's own pet ways of page production. Some themes involve template files loaded and then populated with data values, others just render the page directly. This guide will show you how to wrap your head around this multi-layer approach and hopefully get you on your way to full drupality.
