For the last week I have been working on my new theme for this site. I decide to use Feather WordPress theme from elegant themes. I like this wordpress theme in particular, because the huge possibility that a user have when is using this theme. I like the multi backgrounds option, the fonts from Google Fonts directory and I think this theme is more suitable for my site.
In this post, I just want to give you a sneak peek of my upcoming theme and if you like you can write me some reviews in the comments below. But first of all let’s take a look at what I did with the original theme:
Things I’ve changed:
On home page:
- on the front page I have increased the width of the content area
- added one more post from the blog category
- added more fonts from Google’s directory which are available to select from the control panel
On the single page:
- replace the meta information, with a slick stick note (and a paperclip)
- moved down the title of the post
- using larger thumbnail image (like I have here on the style)
- making the content area more visible
- added a white background with some nice rounded corners
- increase the space for the post content
- added a nice shadow effect to the post content
- integrating the YARP plugin to display related posts
- added a post tag block
- added some Google ads links
For the sidebar:
- every widget has the same white background with rounded corners and some shadow effect
- make room for the ads widget to be displayed on 2 rows
I will keep working on this theme but for now let’s take a look at some screen shots and please let me know which one do you think is the best. Enjoy
