Making changes…again.

This may perhaps be a record for the quickest theme change for me. I really liked the previous theme I was using. It looked nice but under the hood it wasn’t quite as nice. The entire thing was coded using tables instead of divs which really started bugging me, especially when it came to doing any editing with the sidebars. Sooo, I decided to to just ditch the whole thing and go with something simpler.

I started with a blank three column CSS layout and just added the proper WordPress codes where they needed to be. In all it took me about three days. It wasn’t nearly as difficult as I thought it would be! I may have to just manually put themes together more often. Sorry if you grew any kind of attachment to the last theme. I hope you’ll forgive me :P

    I wish I could even do a fraction of the behind the scenes stuff that you can do, your site always looks fantastic no matter what changes you make. :)

    Looking great as always Mike! The only think I MIGHT change is making the copyright text bolded. Seems to fade into the bg a bit.

    @Mike: Can’t do that since we don’t have personal computers, but here at home it looks quite nice :)
