i got the reddit code up and running for a niche site. didn't do much custom skinning since i wasn't sure how well the site was going to work out. as it turns out, it didn't work out too well (though not really because of the codebase).

imo, the codebase needs cleaning up, still (or at least, the version i downloaded did). it is very much reddit's source code, not a flexible open source project.

i haven't checked in a while, perhaps the codebase is cleaner and more sleek nowadays.
