Over the last week or so, I’ve been quietly developing a new theme for this site. The main purposes and criteria of the new theme is outlined below…
- Dark colours – I think photos stand out more this way
- Keep the green, but add more colour – its my favourite colour
- No sidebar navigation – who uses it anyway?
- Larger photos – 700 pixels wide, at least?
- Less mess – make it simple and easy.
- Make more of commenting – I want more comments!
That pretty much does it, and it’s almost ready for release already. I was going to give a preview link, but instead I’ll just go ahead and release it on this blog whenever I’m happy with it.
Also, WordPress have just released version 2.0.6, so naturally I’ll be using this version on my new theme.
Mate – new theme development is always fun! If you want an alpha (or beta) tester send me the files and I will throw them on one of my hidden blogs for testing and let you know my thoughts.
Cool, thanks mate. I might just do that. Its coming together a lot quicker than I thought – as in. Maybe online today to be honest, but I need more testing
