Advanced Drupal Theming using Panels Part 1

I generally would style individual page elements like menus, blocks, views, and other content by using their own class names or IDs. That would mean if I wanted a consistent style to be applied to many of these elements I would have to override template files just to add a consistent class attribute, or have multi-line selectors in my css which would make it incredibly difficult to organize. Then one day I got smart and started to use Panels. Without getting into much detail, I’d have to say that using Panels to create my own custom layouts and plugins has changed my game as a Drupal themer.
