Yesterday I was playing in photoshop and created this concept for a new kiamo.co.uk theme. I feel a bit unsure about it. While I do like it, it somehow doesn’t feel completely appropriate.
What are your thoughts?
I’m thinking I’ll turn it into a wordpress theme regardless of whether or not I’ll use it. You know… just for practice, and fun.
Two nights ago I stayed up most of the night learning some XHTML and CSS for building my own wordpress themes. Last night I stayed up most the night coding simplyGreen, which was based on the quick theme concept I did earlier this week. Although it’s not entirely accurate to the concept, I’ve done what I can in one sitting. When I get a chance I’ll look into sorting out the footer(which currently doesn’t display where I want it if at all), and try to get a better grasp on controlling the page layout with div tags and css.
As I’m using the theme on my site there’s no reason to include an image, that and that I’m writing this post with the wordpress for iphone app which lacks a screenshot function or any means to attach the image in this post. So those of you that are rss subscribers will have to actually visit my site if you want to see it.
EDIT: I did some more editing on the theme and broke it. Gotta go to work now, but later this evening I’ll fix it again. For now I’ve gone back to the previous theme.
EDIT: Fixed it again, and updated it. Still a few bits to touch up but its basically working. Lets hope I dont break it again haha.
FINAL EDIT: Done! I might work on a dark theme next…
Recently I started working on a theme for the haphazardMEDIA website. I enjoyed mashing it together in photoshop, however the lack of thought I put into design left me feeling stuck. Something just isn’t right.
After reading a brief amount about web design on Mark Boulton’s Blog, I did a quick little experiment in photoshop to help me break free from the haphazardMEDIA theme.
What are your thoughts on these designs? Particularly the first one? It would be really helpful to hear other peoples points of view.
