Some things to know about Beez:

• It's located in /SITE/templates/beez directory
• Pay special attention to the /html subdirectory, and its subdirectories. These contain theme overrides that have been specially designed to make heavy use of CSS formatting (instead of formatting with tables.)
• For instance, one can format articles by editing this file:

  /SITE/templates/beez/html/com_content/article/default.php

• Accessibility matters. Handicapped people use special devices other than mouse and keyboard to navigate a page; blind people use screen readers to read web pages aloud. Consider that Google and other search routines are also "blind": They can read the content of text, not pictures.
• Note that there are a number of stylesheets being used by Beez. You may have to edit your IE-only stylesheet to enable your site to work with both Internet Explorer® and Firefox.

Here are the stylesheets found by default in the SITE/beez/css directory:

• ie7only.css
• ieonly.css (useful esp. for IE6)
• layout.css
• position.css
• print.css
• template.css
