I think I have found a name for my theme. I’m going to call it Clean and Mean. The title sums up what the theme is about. We may see a Thanksgiving Break release of Clean and Mean if things continue to go as planned. Here’s what I need to with the theme yet:
- Add the comment sections (will take a while)
- The navigational things (previous post, etc.)
- Navigational aids (you’re currently browsing X)
- Search pages
- Links page (that’s like a five second job)
- IE hacks (if they’re easy and won’t take long)
- Migrating existing posts (change old classes, etc.)
I think you’ll be surprised by the theme once I put it up on the main site. It just looks so slick. Since you’ve all been very patient, here is a sneak preview of one part of it.

Your theme makes me want to learn HTML.
Looks pretty good Ron, i look forward in seeing more sneak-peeks in the future :-)….
Carl, Learning HTML is easy, using it well is hard!
Yeah, as I’m designing this I’m finding out that I can know all the HTML and CSS in the world, but that’s not going to help me design something good. Really coding websites is more about have a good sense of design and then using your HTML skills, not the other way around.
why waste time and don’t make it work for IE. I am really considering making an anti-IE plugin to ensure people use Firefox or other browsers.
Well here’s the thing. If when I’m done, I only need like 5-10 IE hacks I’ll do them. But if I load my theme up in IE and I can distinguish that a website is there, screw IE.
