What do you think of the new Web AddiCT(s); theme.

7 Comments 01 November 2006

So itÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s nearly the end of the year (just 2 months to go) so I thought it would be nice give the blog a revamp going into the new year.

Just so you know, I didnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t create it from scratch. ItÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s more of a hybrid between two other themes and our old bloxpress2 theme, which in turn was modified to look like itÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s predecessor kubrick theme.

The main theme this blog is based on is ocean mist 1.0, background textures taken from dfire 1.0, blockquote styles carried over from our old theme, and some tweaks here and there to bring it all together and make it look pretty while still working cross-browser.

IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢m really stoked at the outcome.

What do you all think? Do you like this new theme or prefer the old one?

Have you read these yet?

The theme looks good and all, but it’s pink and the sunflower banner doesn’t go well with the style
Miguel
Pink? I would say it’s more yellow. I like the colours in our theme it has a kind of beach feel to it.
Our sunflower and bee banner has been with us for soo long, we couldn’t think to get rid of it or even change it. It’s our branding if you will. TYFYC.

As i said, very cool retro transformation of the mist theme.
We installed the ocean mist theme… even if i click on archive or the category.. it just shows 10 items..
there is no “Previous Entries” button that shows up at the bottom.

Hi amad, sorry I only go to your comment now only, a week later. I had a look at your site, it also looks good. It also looks like you got your problem sorted out, well on you. I find it’s usually something really small that makes huge bugs like that.
