New look

Don’t really like the default WP1.5 theme, and anyway, who wants to look like all the others…..

I’m gonna play with some other WP themes to see what I do and don’t like, and then have more of fiddle I think.

  1. Liked the other one much better and this one doesn’t fit on my screen so more scrolling left and right for me if you keep it!
    Help me out- are there two Chris’s talking in the comments below? It’s all dreadfully confusing…

  2. doesn’t fit on my screen either properly, and I think words too small, so a no as well.

  3. Ah well it’s changed again now….

    Yes Heather there are two Chrises. I’m usually Chris F on the other blogs. There is another Chris as well though.

  4. too pale and anaemic. I like Sarah C’s best chris

  5. ok i like this one better than the pthers so far. would like some greenery in header – what about that french bean piccie??
    and a climbing bean up the side

  6. I’ve lost track as to which ‘this one’ is now. Sarah’s is basically the default theme with differnet header image and some tweaking. Things is there is page layout and there is page colour, text size and colour etc. both are independant of each other. I don’t really like fixed width layouts as on larger screens it ‘ wastes’ loads of space. Things is my knowledge of CSS is so poor that ti takes me a while wotking things out.

  7. this is the kubrik one again. maybe I should just talk in real life!! ROFL!!!!
    Could you just substite the header with nice piccie then for now? I’ll let you pass on the bean climbing up the side – unless jax posts a helpful suggestion!

  8. talking IRL successful!! i like it

  9. I really like this one. It’s very clear, easy to read, and I love the little beans.

  10. This one VERY nice- beans a good touch! Quite envious actually but my skills mean I must remain with blogger :-(
    I know there *are* two Chris’s- just can’t work out who’s talking when there’s no ‘F’! Perhaps I should study typo’s etc.

  11. :-)

    i’m always Chris F when commenting on others blogs. The new version of WP deals with comments on my own blog slighty differently, which means at the moment I come out as just Chris. But the other Chris usually signs himeslef as something like Chris(the other one) if commenting on ours.

  12. I like your beans :)

  13. oh yes, beans are lovely :D grey sidebar looks a bit odd next to all the white, am I being picky and impatient though?!

  14. No, you aren’t being picky, I was playing with it last night, ut yes, you are being impatient :-)

  15. I didn’t say that, chris did!! but side bar will change!

  16. rofl!!! I guessed ;) wasn’t sure playing with sidebars was your thing, Helen!

    Agree about the fixed width wasting space. I am gonna change to something that is wider….and simpler….

  18. Yeah, I like simple. I browsed around some WP Theme on the web but genrally found them much to fussy
