  Hi everyone,
  
  As part of my school project, I have to develop an online newspaper portal.
  
  Similar to how these sites are built up:
  
  The Times (http://www.timesonline.co.uk/), the telegraph (http://www.telegraph.co.uk) , USA today (http://www.usatoday.com), CNN (http://www.cnn.com).
  
  
  I was wondering if anyone could point me out, where I could get a newspaper theme or something similar that features a similar structure of the listed sites?
  
  I could really use some help…

  The themes themselves are very simple (the header and right menu) and you could easily make yourself, however the "guts" layed out on the homepage are somewhat different than a "standard" PN News page. You'll have to use something like Xanthia or AutoTheme, perhaps, for the custom home page layout or try out my custom block/homepage mod here:
  NEW MODULE: BlockHom… of news and blocks
  
  I don't think anyone's put together something quite like the links you provide, though try a search for "newspaper" on these forums - not too abitious, eh? tryin' to emulate cnn/usa today with Postnuke ;)
  
  With some heavy theme mods, you can likely accomplish it, but you'll have to get your hands dirty. Check out these other posts for more resources:
