Tricia’s Musings has a new look

May 17, 2008 by Tricia

Well … what do you think of the new look of Tricia’s Musings?

I’ve been downloading and testing WP themes for months in order to find just the right one for this site. I finally decided on this theme about a week ago.

The only problem I’m having with it is that I can’t figure out how to put a header image in it without dropping the sub-navigation bar. I’m sure I’ll figure out how to put in a custom header eventually.

Please let me know if this theme doesn’t work well with you browser. I’ve tested it on the latest version of FireFox and Internet Explorer 7 and I’m pleased with how it’s performing.

I’m planning on organizing the sidebars a bit better and I’ll utilize some of the special options in this theme such as featured video and featured posts shortly. It’s really a great theme. It was a custom theme but the designer decided to offer it up for free at the end of April. I love it and I hope that you do too.

I was supposed to have a custom theme made for this site. I won it in November, but my latest emails to the designer have gone unanswered and I couldn’t wait any longer. I’m pretty disappointed with how things worked out. If she does ever get in touch with me perhaps I’ll use whatever theme she came up with on one of my other sites.

    Very Nice. Check out my new theme and let me know what you think. The only thing I don’t like is the inablility to cut and paste with my mouse. I have to use Ctrl C with my new theme. I guess it is because the maker of the graphic required it be that way.

    I think the theme is just perfect ๐Ÿ™‚ but maybe you can put some links on the left side of the page? Then you can centre your articles in the middle. Just my opinion ๐Ÿ™‚ thats how I did it in my other blog
