This morning, while I was pounding away at the keyboard trying to get my character to start talking about the actual plot and not how just how annoying her little sister was, I realized it was June 29th already. Earlier this month, I’d seen the Slowdown Challenge over at Bloggingpro.com and wanted to participate with turning Darkfaerytale’s previous design into a WordPress theme.
It seemed that many people liked it (apparently better than my current theme, and I understand because they are rather a big contrast), and I thought - why let it go to waste? It wasn’t like I planned to do anything further with it, and since it’s never been released before…
Here it is. I’m releasing Version 0.1 today, shown in in the screenshot below. While the theme still has some kinks to smooth over - mostly ones that you wouldn’t notice. I think - and needs some aesthetic improvements on the archive pages (or so I think), everything should work. I want to add widgets support to the sidebar in the future, but that will have to wait until after the week of 4th of July.
For now, just enjoy it as it is.
If you have any problems with the theme, suggestions for new features, or bug reports, feel free to comment on this post and I’ll get back to you ASAP.
Hmm…I need to get my showcase page up soon, it seems.
