my 1st WP theme

  • So I created my first WP theme.
    Actually I didn't use Chris' tut, but I showed me some great overview ideas.
    I ended up creating a static html page w/ headings, postings, title, comment boxes, etc.
    That helped A TON for me and I kinda wish someone would've suggested that in the tut Chris did.
    O well.... here it is...

    I know it's not fancy, but it is my first.
    If you feel the urge, feel free to comment.
  • Looks pretty cool. I use WP for everything now, it's just so easy to customize and manipulate. I'm not an expert, but to me it looks pretty good. Your visitors will love it
  • yea thats a realy nice personal blog site :D good job! :D

    I think for ease - you could stick a "home" link on your photo page to make it easyer to get back to your main site? :D Maybe change the current "home" link to make it go back to your actual home page? :D
  • Ya the photos page is actually a zenphoto page and i need to design a theme for that, too.
    There is a link back to the home page, but it's wicked small and at the bottom.
    Thanks for the thoughts!! I'll have to do this again!

    Looks nice -- a good starting point for further work as you learn how to work with Wordpress.
