Home / blog / New Theme

If you’re not reading this in a feed you might have noticed the new look.

For those that like sidebars; I now have two. For those who like brown; I have 5+ shades. For those who like Google search; I have integrated google ajax search.

Of course I wanted to finalize the theme before I threw it out but instead of playing around and not getting around to finishing it I’ll just make this a permanent beta, like all my other themes.

A few things to come:

  • Sidebar content.
  • A header image. A fun one too.
  • Make and release the google ajax search plugin.
  • CSS switcher and another CSS to go with (all white with brown highlights)
  • and some padding and spacing fixes, namely the sidebar widgets have no spacing in between them.
  • UPDATE: I also want to do a homepage using the 2.1 option.

Thanks to redoable for making the great base to this theme. Making the sidebars their own independent widget sections took some learning and tons of other style “fixes” took enough time for me to claim this my own version but I still need to add a link in the footer and I will release this mod later without the css changes.

    i really like the double sidebar thing...may have to rethink my own thoughts for my blogoversary. damn, this is your best theme ever.
  • Hey very cool to you using Reodable, I have played around with some of your themes in the past when I was still learning Wordpress. I hope you enjoy using/modifying Redoable. And if you need a hand with any changes just give me a yell.

    Thanks Dean. I think I'll definitely keep in touch.

    I would like to share my thoughts with you on the middle bar be widgetized rather then the default setup you have in place now.

    And again thanks for all the hard work. It truly shows.

    Stryker:

  • Love the sidebars. :)
  • PS - are you planning to do more tweaking for IE? They do make up 25% of the audience for your blog, after all. ;)
  • Dan
    I don't see anything wrong with IE except the comment box not changing color on focus. What do you see? I'm checking it in IE7 are you still on 6?
  • Yes, I was checking with 6. No big problems, just some of the boxes look a little off and stuff.

    It's still useable, and I'm guessing you don't want to spend much time making it work for that platform.
  • Dan
    I don't even have 6 anymore to check, anyways 6.0 users only come to 13% and they are dwindling fast.

    I do need to make that "get firefox" banner smaller.
  • Yeah, although you still have more 6 users than 7 (barely).

    You could always use a VM with Windows 2000 or something to check it if you really wanted to, but I can see why you wouldn't too.

    hahaha, nice header image...hmmm
  • Dan
    Thanks, thought you'd like that.

    Meredith is going to make me a cool header but this will be a good for now.
