Oooh, these are awesome!

Just one thing... Try to pick up another wordpress template that manages text in a single column. Having to read between two of them and scrolling all the way back when done with the first one is a bit... well, awkward. It's my professional deformation as a web developer to notice stuff like that xD

Also - try not to use 100% width for text. It's a bit tiresome to read text that wide. Stick to 2/3 of the website. If you need any help - feel free to PM me. I've been working with WP for ages and I know every bit and corner of it

Where the hell were you when I wrote THIS? : viewtopic.php?f=12&t=2720

I have gone through all the free templates there that are single column, and none had the simplicity I wanted. The ones that were REAL close had limits on the features I wanted. Or they had it and it was Premium. I have been going through the themes every single day trying new ones. Any customization if Premium.

Thanks, and I will keep trying to find a better theme, but until then, I am stuck.

oh... erm... i was... um... saving the galaxy from thargoids! yes, that's it! *hides under a random intergalactic rock*

unfortunately, i've never used WP free hosting but i'm sure there are a lot of limitations. if you ever get a chance to get your own domain/hosting (those come for like 15-20€/year nowadays) i'd be happy to set everything up for you

LOL Thanks. I am test driving new themes as we speak.

Update: New theme chosen although I am not 100% ok with it, I am about 94.6%.

The new theme is much better, Loriath. But I'd prefer white text on dark background, personally. I find that much easier on the eyes, on a computer screen. Does WP allows you to provide two different themes and let the user choose between them, by any chance?

Great job again, Loriath!

I really doubt that's available for free WP hostings. But if you can edit your CSS file you can just put in this:

Code: Select all

body {
    background-color: #252525;
    color: #FFFFFF;
}
.entry-title {
    color: #FFFFFF;
}
.widget .widget-title, .widget .widgettitle {
    color: #ADADAD;
}
h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, .site-title, .site-posted-on strong, .entry-title, .post-author-card .author.vcard {
    color: #F8F8F8;
}
.post-details, .post-details a {
    color: #929292;
}

That will pretty much change it to a dark theme with blue highlights like you have now
There might be more hidden CSS classes that will need editing, but these are the main ones

*sigh* not unless I want to give them $100 a year. I have 3 colour pallets with this theme, and that is the best I can do. I may be able to go from white to a more grey background, but I can't do a reversal with that theme.

Thanks, and fixed that. I am not a great Proof Reader even though I read it 4-5 times. Needs an Editors Eyes (aka Not mine )

HAHAHAHA Yeah right. I can Barely Change the name of it without paying them $$$$ for the Privileged

Thanks. I already tried that, but I use to do it with GlimmerBlocker and it doesn't work for https.
