Finally did my own theme.

    I’ve always used a design that someone else had done (because my design skills aren’t really all that good), but I finally got a creative urge to theme my own blog, and I’m kind of happy with how it came out. So, now I’ll take that brave step and ask for feedback. 🙂

    Actually, what I really want to know is if it’s readable to everyone (I’ve played with the font a lot and I’ve been looking at it too long now to tell anymore), and what the experience really is in browsers other than IE and FF on Windows XP (I’ve done the screenshot thing, but that doesn’t get you the real deal, you know?)

    Any and all comments welcome, though I reserve the right to ignore snotty ones. 🙂

    Unfortunately, it doesn’t view well in IE. The posts come at the bottom of the left sidebar.

    Seems to work fine in Safari. Nice job on the theme!

    As jimatwork said, it does not view correctly in IE. The design is cool and once this minor problem corrected, this will a be very nice job.
    In my opinion, I prefer the right column menu disposition. It always seem more ergonomic to me and since you asked and I cannot mind my own business…that is my review. ;-)))) Good job again!

    I’m not normally a big fan of purple, but I think you pulled it off nicely. Nice work.

    great work!

    i’m having no trouble in IE whatsoever! FF does look better, though!

    Yeah, the IE bork was 3px of padding I put in the menu later, which is now fixed. 3px and IE chokes… one more reason I much prefer FF. If any of you who had looked previously could take a look one more time and just double check, I’d appreciate it.

    And thanks to all for the compliments!

    jessenco: All 3 of the previous themes I’ve used on my blog had the right menu, so I just kind of felt like it was time for a change. I think I actually like the right menu better overall, but as a switch up, I like having something different.

    devilmaycry: Purple is my favorite color in the world, but for some reason, it doesn’t work well on websites so much. (Usually too bright I think.) So, I really do take that as a compliment! Thanks. 🙂
