When I’m exporting an Artisteer generated theme I usually remove the “art-” from the css files. That makes Blank Artisteer 1.0 not working as expected because Microthemer cannot “recognize” the specific Artisteer tags. So I made a version of Blank Artisteer which works in such situation. I will submit it to the Theme Packs repository.
Sebastian April 17, 2012 at 7:32 pm	Hi Kehyian, Thank you very much for submitting a modified version of our Blank Artisteer Micro Theme. Before I publish it, I just have a few questions. 1. Why do you usually remove the “art-” from the css files? 2. Do you think many other Artisteer users remove “art-” from the css files too? I just need to make sure that people don’t download the wrong Blank Artisteer Micro Theme for their particular needs. Depending on your answer to my questions, I may just create a blog post for downloading your alternative version which would also explain why it might be useful. I would link to this post from the current Blank Artisteer details page. Thanks for getting so stuck in with Microthemer! Sebastian
kehyian April 18, 2012 at 8:53 am	Hi Sebastian, Regarding your questions 1. Because I think that css files look better, are more compatible and IMHO it doesn’t offer any advantage. 2. I’m not sure but actually I read this tip in Artisteer forums. I think that the blog post idea is the best solution. BTW Microthemer is a very good plugin and I think it has a great potential. Best regards from Greece Yiannis
Sebastian April 18, 2012 at 4:19 pm	Hi Yiannis, I’ve published your alternative Blank Artisteer with this tutorial explanation: https://themeover.com/artisteer-with-art-css-prefix-removed-customized/ Thanks again! Sebastian
imagei April 24, 2012 at 1:36 pm	Hey Seb, Just for the record, I’m a relatively new (3 months) Artisteer user and I started off by renaming my prefix just to personalise the theme, but now remove it for the same reasons as Kehyian. It’s just a seemingly useless piece of the code. I would think that if we both do this, many others do also. Regards, Jon.
Sebastian April 24, 2012 at 5:57 pm	Thanks for pitching in Jon. Some other users have also confirmed that they remove the “art-” prefix too.
Chazzer June 12, 2012 at 8:54 pm	Hi Just arrived. How do I use Microthemer with an existing Artisteer theme I’ve made – not the blank one?
Sebastian June 12, 2012 at 9:02 pm	Hi, You should be able to use the Theme Pack for ANY Theme you’ve already created with Artisteer: https://themeover.com/blank-artisteer/ It’s called a “blank” theme because it contains selectors (for targeting the HTML in your Artisteer-generated Theme) but no CSS style rules. Perhaps I haven’t fully understood your question… Regards, Sebastian
Chazzer June 13, 2012 at 9:36 am	I think I didn’t understand the product. The penny has dropped 🙂
Sebastian June 13, 2012 at 9:37 am	Great! 🙂
