New Theme Preview

After my $12,775.98 check went through, I went on a blogger shopping spree.

I purchased a blog makeover, a new custom logo, and hired a programmer to make it into wordpress. The blog’s new design is finished, but it will be at least a week before it is coded and the new logo is finished. At any rate, here is a preview of what the new blog will look like:

    2. I think the new design is a LOT better than the current one, I just wonder about all the wasted space at the top just to house the banner ad. If the bg was also orange it wouldn’t be so bad, but with the white bg it pulls a lot of attention, even in the mini-view above.

    3. im guessing that the top blank spot will house the new logo that he discussed ?

    4. The logo will be up there, but it has not been designed yet. It will have the same idea as the current one (obviously with a better logo).

    6. I really like the new design. The white in the article area will work well.

    11. I like the new design. I look so much better than the current one.

    However, there is one problem. The new design is for 1024×768 screen resolution, but it won’t fit nicely when the vertical scroll bar is on. So the designer have to cut 16px from the max width otherwise there will be a big mess.

    Regards,
    Binh

    12. I’m trying to help get the word out about your new theme.
    You’ll notice a new post about your new theme at my blog. Hope you enjoy! :)

    I still envy the fact that you’re live comment preview works, and mine doesn’t. :)
