Break from Repetitive Coding to Dabble in a Blog Theme Give Away

I’ve been working on a site upgrade all day for a client.  Part of the project has me copying and pasting html tables and republishing them into a content management system.  To do this, I have to make slight adjustments to the table settings, and I also have to do a lot of clicks and hovers with drop down menus.

I’m turning into a zombie doing this stufffff!  :)

So I took the opportunity while getting caught up in a small little conversation in a discussion forum to see if I might emulate a blog design that caught my eye from one of the participants in the forum.

Now, I didn’t have the actual color scheme for the original site, and I was just kind of eye-balling stuff because I needed to play.   Plus, I can’t show this live (after the upload so the sidebars are different) and I’d probably make the sidebars wider if I had some dimensions to work off of, but hey it was fun.

This was not my site, so I’m not going to offer up the theme to anyone (other than the site owner if they want a free theme or something).  I just needed to play and get out of the copy past doldrums for 20 minutes.  :)

    Well, I do not mind if you snag it. I will tell you what. I will bottle up a version of what I have and you can offer it. I am a little more than lax and you have been awesome about telling me. I actually think it is a cute alteration, though I am in the works for a different theme I will debut by the end of March.

    My view is that web design is about learning and a lot of web designers bounce ideas from each other. Every site we visit that has left an impression is a stepping stone. :)

    I am so blogging about this tonight. :D
