I just came across a great little chunk of php to bung into your template.php that will load icons next to actual file attachments in posts on a Drupal 5.x site, thanks to Agaric Design. He's got a basic icon set with MS Word, PDF and a couple more icons you can use - I also recommend looking @ famfamfam to see if anything else strikes your fancy/works better with your theme.

Its funny how often people remark; "I don't know about Drupal - all the sites people make with it, well, look like Drupal!"  Such observations are usually the result of a developer not taking that extra step to override some default blurbs and titles that Drupal comes with out of the box.

Now, overriding Drupal's strings has been quite the pain until recently because you'd have to wrap your head around php and then come up with some snippet including a hook and so on..  Well, thanks to Khalid @ 2bits today I got twigged onto a new module which makes overrides a dream.  This great module is simply titled 'String Overrides' and comes ready to transform your Drupal 5 and 6 experience.  Yay!

Here's a demo video from Rob Loach:

I'll be posting something later today about what options you have when considering wysiwyg editors for Drupal websites but firstly want to make note that its very important to pay a visit to your input format options to make sure things are setup properly per project you work on.

You can typically access the input formats at 'admin/settings/filters' - a lot of people simply use the default Drupal inputs, which are great but when you use a wysiwyg editor some customisation may be required.
