In reply to: Designing a theme – Where to startFinished creating my new template files last night! It only took me about two hours to complete with everything validating! Not too sure what I was stressing over, the process was suprisingly easy.
Check it out:
http://www.jump-punch.comI still have a bunch of tweaks to do, plugins to add, and general house cleaning, but the design and functionality are there. Again, thank you for all your help. Your advice definitely saved me a lot of time.

In reply to: Designing a theme – Where to startAndrea,
The more I’ve been researching this, the more I think you’re right. It seems like a huge pain to take some one else’s theme, rewrite the stylesheets, and then try and fit everything in the template files. It will be much easier to just seperate what I’ve already written, then copy and paste the PHP where it needs to go. I guess, since I wasn’t able to find a place to start for a 3 column layout, just doing it myself is the best way. Thanks!

In reply to: That Darn FooterThanks vkaryl, that site seems to have some good reading too. Got a fix working at the moment for the footer. As long as the sidebar isn’t obscenely longer than the posting (which i can’t see ever being the case), it will display correctly. Thanks for your help!

In reply to: That Darn FooterBTW: I would have used a pie, but I would have felt bad if any did not get consumed. The whipped cream splatters everywhere anyway.

In reply to: That Darn FooterThanks! I used a “faux column” for my background image. It’s just getting the footer to stay at the bottom, whether the post or the sidebar is longer. I’m just kinda confused about css positioning.
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: That Darn FooterActually, I just want the footer to be at the bottom of the page no matter what. Sometimes the posts will be longer. Sometimes the sidebar will be longer.
When I put the div under the sidebar, it appears behind the image.

In reply to: Overlapping Sidebar problemThat solved everything! Thanks! Actually, I tried that earlier, but I forgot to refresh the browser. So I didn’t think it worked. Oooh, I’m stoked!!!!!!

In reply to: Slow site response timeTry compressing your images using the “Save for Web” method in photoshop. It can cut filesize down quite significantly without comprimsing the quality of the images. If you don’t use photoshop, there are plenty of free programs out there like IrfanView and Gimp.

In reply to: Adding a div to the sidebar / Getting the positioning rightAnyone, I know the absolute positioning is probably screwing with it, but otherwise, it just displays either all the way to the right or underneath the blog content.

In reply to: reducing header img height in KubrickHmm, I changed my header size successfully. Here is the css that I changed to reflect the new header image height:
#header { }
#headerimg { }
I also deleted the following in the header file:
/* Because the template is slightly different, size-wise, with images, this needs to be set here
If you don’t want to use the template’s images, you can also delete the following two lines. */#header { margin: 0 !important; margin: 0 0 0 1px; padding: 1px; height: 198px; width: 758px; }
#headerimg { margin: 7px 9px 0; height: 192px; width: 740px; }
/* END IMAGE CSS *//* To ease the insertion of a personal header image, I have done it in such a way,
that you simply drop in an image called ‘personalheader.jpg’ into your /images/
directory. Dimensions should be at least 760px x 200px. Anything above that will
get cropped off of the image. *//*
#headerimg { background: url(‘<?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_directory’); ?>/images/personalheader.jpg’) no-repeat top;}
*/Then I, of course, swapped out the kubrick’s header image with mine in the header file.

In reply to: Weird Bolding TextI had inserted that tag with the intention of changing it later. I’m still working in more and more parts of the site. I’ve noticed the the stranging bolding effect on other sites as well. I don’t know if it’s only a Firefox for Max issue or if it happens in Windows as well. I tried looking at the site with two other browsers and did not see the weird bolding.

In reply to: Is there a link blog for the sidebar plugin?Thanks, I just tried inserting <?php wp_get_linksbyname(‘Dude!’); ?> into my sidebar and it seemed to work just fine. Now I just need to go home and design the style for it.
