So I’ve been reading this book Smashing WordPress Themes by Thord Daniel Hedergren over the last few days and it might sound a little dull to some people but I assure you it’s not – well it’s not if you’re into stuff like this lol. Anyway, I like it and I also read his previous book Smashing WordPress – Beyond the Blog which is also excellent.
Anyway, it has of course inspired me to change my layout here a little bit. I’m not making too many changes, and I’m aiming for simplicity over clutter, something simple and elegant would be nice, so let”s hope I can achieve that. At the moment I am reverting to the default theme and making a child theme of that and then using some of my original artwork as the header and background and so far I’m pleased with it. After reading more of the book, I am considering adding a second sidebar as I do like to have two of them, but it really depends how it looks in the end and how much width I have to play with for the main content. I don’t want it to end up too narrow nor too wide! It might be a very gradual work in progress though, depending on how much time I have to devote to it, so main changes first, little tweaks later if needed.
