I love this challenge! I actually started using Rise due to mobile requirements and ran into some limitations with the default theme options so I started creating my own. Here's a link to my first custom theme for a Rise course I call Photographing Sasquatch. It uses a multicolor palette, dark mode, custom typography, custom lesson headers.

- I liked seeing where you started and where you ended up. Thanks for posting that. I like how seamless your project looks.
- Phil, I really like how you customized the navigation elements to include the image of the sign to fit with the theme. I don't see that as an available option. Can you point me in the direction of how you did that?
- Thanks Michael I'm actually adding a stylesheet to the exported lesson package, luckily a Rise course is standard website files so you can easily add your own css. I just posted a link in comment above with a recent vid showing the process.
- Wow it looks amazing!
How were you able to create your own theme from scratch?- Thank you, actually its more of an additive process, the default theme is still in place but I'm adding a new CSS stylesheet to the exported code. I explain the process a bit more in this recent vid where I change some of the default fonts in a course
