 * Hi, I been developing a wordpress theme for a client – a non-profit organisation
   involved in investing in developing countries.
 * They asked for a simple design and layout and I have come up with this:
    [http://topuptents.x10hosting.com/wordpress](http://topuptents.x10hosting.com/wordpress)(
   currently on free hosting I use as a development server.
 * I know the design is quite boring and plain, and although it would hopefully 
   be more interesting once some proper content is added, I would appreciate some
   advice on making the theme a bit more exciting without going overboard.
 * I would also like to avoid flash and go easy on javascript.
 * I currently have implemented lightbox on the site and also have an image fader
   on the home page.

 * I don’t think it’s boring at all, but that’s a matter of personal opinion, I 
   guess.
 * What I find rather disturbing is the disappearing sidebar when selecting a post(
   I do the same on my site, however my sidebar is on the right hand side, and seems
   less disturbing – to me that is).

 * I purposely made it so only archive pages have a sidebar. I figured I didn’t 
   want to clutter the site with catagories and tags and stuff on pages where it
   would be irrelevent.
 * The theme is meant to be more of a site than a blog – as such wordpress is being
   used more as a content management system.
 * Thanks for the comments though…
