Hi Guys,
I'm hoping to make a theme for this website http://www.genuinefreebies.co.uk - do you think it is a fairly easy task to do?
Thanks!

For anyone used to creating themes, yes it would be straighforward.

Posted 1 year ago #Yes, I have managed to implement the basics. You can see here - http://www.genuinefreebies.co.uk/blog - However, when you click the title (i'm still coding in the CSS to get the colour of text, etc correct) it just goes to a totally disfunctional page.
Any advise on why it does this?
Thanks

Your single post page is missing critical markup tags - like
<body>. -

Are there any tools out there that can help with this?

With this you can select "Outline Current Element" to identify what to change in the CSS & use "Edit CSS" to test changes in the browser on the fly before editing the css file for real.
Also it might help to have a copy of Eric Meyer's CSS Pocket Reference within reach.

Just what I've been looking for... I'm guessing it won't work in chrome :) I'll get FF installed
