This is a goodie, called ‘Cactus’ for Wordpress
Monday, May 12th, 2008
The free theme for May has a lot of new things I have not done in other themes, for one thing, I created an illustration for the header, so you are getting a completely unique look.
Also, the theme is formatted to the last detail, so that whatever your visitors do they see the same uniform look. It seems like every time a new theme comes around we find more things that can be customized for greater beauty and functionality!
I hope you like the colors, I think this is by far the nicest free theme. So enjoy!
The theme validates in both CSS and XHTML, so you can be sure of error free installation and use. As always if you have any need for help then always go to the member forum, or the support site.
This theme is FREE! That means you don’t have to pay anything to own it for personal use. How cool is that?? But you have to sign up as a free member first, learn more here.
Tutorials To Help You With Your Web Design
Wednesday, May 7th, 2008
One of my major goals in starting this website was to help web designers who are just starting out. When I was starting out I had to look all over to find out how to do various different parts of web design. My hope is to get enough content loaded for you that this can become a sort of one-stop shop for learning how to do web design without going to a university for it.
I learned design from the street, essentially. I had to try different things and see what worked. And since I’m currently creating a new website theme every week, I am learning a ton more than I ever imagined. So I want to help you! The link to the tutorials site is **no longer active**.
Please enjoy it and let me know if you find it helpful!
Don’t see what you really need? Post a comment and let me know, so I can add the things you really want, first.
Grunged By This Week’s Theme …
Monday, May 5th, 2008
This week’s theme is again a Wordpress theme. I think we’re all starting to see a pattern here …
But this is different, this theme is grunge, unlike any of the others so far. In fact it was my first stab at grunge and I think it turned out pretty good!
The fun thing about doing a new theme every week is that I am getting a lot better with the easy stuff and the basic stuff, so that I can spend more and more time working on really cool stuff. I have to say that this theme is formatted down to the details more than some of the other themes. Oh, maybe not, but that’s kind of how it seems.
This theme is pretty heavy, the background image is large. So don’t use this theme as your spacesaver. Of course, you can always change the background image if you want to. If you need any help with that post it in the forum.
Well, please enjoy it, I made it for you!
(By the way I designed it for a new site I am developing called wpthing.com. You’ll hear more about that in the coming weeks. But for now enjoy the new theme!
