My very first Word Press Theme

Today I have finished my very first Word Press theme. Well, I guess you can question whether its actually finished as I have a tendency to never be entirely satisfied with something I’ve been working on. There is always just a couple of things that need to be improved…

I learned quite a bit about Word Press, which was one of my goals, besides making my very own original Word Press theme for my brand new blog :)

My inspiration for the design was the pretty colorful  design at Web Developer Wall, and their post on how to make a web design based on a CSS Large Background.

I have never done a large background web design before as huge images has been a no-no in usability circles, but with today’s connection speed and the graceful degradation of CSS there is really no reason why one should not indulge in huge images.

Smashing Magazine featured a similar word press theme a while ago. This theme is available for free download.

I’ve got a feeling my next large background web design will be based on a photo…
