Has anyone developed a standard theme template yet?

I’m trying to work Espresso into my workflow where I can since I do my best testing during actual usage, but none of the current themes really float my boat (go figure; not a huge fan of dark themes).  I’d like to put something together for my own use, but was wondering if any standard theme template has been created yet.  I know Elliott has a bunch of recommendations for Sugar selectors; has anyone taken them and created a baseline theme file that can be modified into a general-use theme?

I’d rather start with that than the default theme if I can.

I made this - http://github.com/anthonyshort/starter-template.foam/blob/3ba06d1488d10805c639c2ab05f947ab51c4788c/template.css - a little while ago. I just went through the themes I had and pulled out the selectors I’d need and organised it a bit more. I’m putting it on hold until I definitely know what the selectors are going to be. If the sugar standard that Elliot and crew put together gets implemented, this whole thing will have to be redone. But for now, I’ve found it works pretty well.

Elliot also has this - http://github.com/elliottcable/sugar-debugging.foam/blob/master/Sugar Debugging.css - which could help you out. Much less bloated than mine :)

Awesome, thanks.  One of those should do nicely.
