    I’ve been through a trial by fire with the invaluable help of a friend who understands coding… and have managed to convert my formerly static-HTML blog site into a real, grown-up WordPress venture with a fully customized theme.

    I like it, I really do.

    I wish there were more posts on the main page.

    Are you trying to go for a complete nostalgic, 70’s type feel/theme for your site? I think it could use some more graphics or design to help give it that flavor. Maybe some kind of retro background. I dunno.

    I don’t see an About page, i’m a stickler for those, i want to know what the heck i’m looking at and why. But that’s me.

    Other than that, good luck!

    Thanks, Paul!

    Not completely retro… I worry about it getting too kitschy. I’d rather let the content speak for itself… but who knows. Now that it’s in WordPress, I can play around with the layout easier.

    I’ve thought about adding an “about” page… good idea.

    I like it and I think it is a good start, but it seems to be missing something to me from a design angle. Maybe it is just the one post on the home page or the wide open white spaces. I think it is very nice and a great start. I would definitely suggest taking advantage of adding the pages and more info.
