Designed!
by Martin on 7/07/2008Since starting this (these) blogs I’ve had a minimalist interim theme while getting around to designing my own. Minimalism be gone! (I do suffer from hypomania after all.) Finally I got this theme release ready. It’s a work in progress of course, but good enough for now.
There’s a few validation errors. One from an empty menu of pages being generated that I’m keeping around for whenever I want to write some, and some stuff from posts which I’ll blame on WordPress. For the most part though, it’s all kosher XHTML/CSS.
I had a real hard time getting started on this template. I guess maintaining both design skills and code skills is kind of beyond me. As such I’ll happily admit that the swirly stuff in the header is a purchased stock illustration that I’ve modified and bent to my purposes. Once I had that as a starting point the rest of the design happened pretty quickly.
For now IE6 is not supported. Not sure if it ever will be. I might just redirect those unfortunate to the old bare bones template rather than break my balls trying to hack my code into something that little monstrosity is able to render. If anyone knows a good WP-Plugin that takes care of that for me; Give a shout.
So anyway. Just a FYI. Carry on.
