Well maybe…
I’m looking for a new theme for this blog. I am trying this one out, SUNSPOT. I kinda like it. I’ll give it a few days.
The feed in the old theme is broken. Somewhere in the code I built I added a space into the output where I shouldn’t have. Ever since I started getting notes that the feed was broken I’ve been looking for the problem. I’ve traced it into the theme. But, I have not been able to find the mistake. With this theme that should be fixed.
Thanks for the notes about it being broken. If it is still not working let me know.
I’ll be adding back in my advertising and other widgets over the next few days. Most of the important stuff is there. Plus this is a responsive design so it should be better for phones and tablets. I hate the menu on phones and tablets. I’ll either customize it or replace the theme just because of that. But, it is useable and I do like the look on a desk top.
Comments are welcome.
i like it
Agreed, I like it too. Very modern with match color theme for ya.
I like the new theme, too… And soon I’ll try to check it on my cell phone to see how it works there, too.
The only significant issue I see is that the off white text is somewhat difficult to read.
One unusual thing is that it indexes to the left of my screen rather than centering.
I rather like the look though, very clean.
Looks great, but somehow the follow-widget is blocking the text on my phone (I had the same problem with the old theme). Also maybe add a Second Life picture, e.g. your avi like you had before.
Much better than the previous look!
much easier for me to read which is, I think, the point
Looks perfect! Thank you for fixing the RSS feed.
I’m glad it is fixed. THanks for saying.
Much more readable for those of us with older eyes.
This new one is SO much easier to read . . . I have some vision impairment and the last one I had a great deal reading. Thank you for experimenting!
great deal of trouble
What kind of trouble?
Looks really nice now, previous design was sorta outdated.
I like the new layout. It’s better than the old one. Above all, it uses more width in my browser, making it easier to read.
But the best thing is, that your RSS feed is working again. So I finally have all important SL blogs united on my igHome page ๐
Thank you!
It is the broken feed that pushed me to change themes.
I had no issue with the old theme, but this one also got a good contrast and pleasant colours combination… A theme that won’t make my eyes “bleed”…
To help the reader black text on white bottom is my only choise.
On a big PC-screen it matters less but on a iPad or iPhone itยดs terrible.
I understand that for some black-on-white is their preference, often for very practical or necessary reasons. But, I really dislike displaying images on white backgrounds. The ideal background is a 50% neutral gray. But, I find shades of gray too stark.
From the feedback so far, the black background in the previous theme was not all that popular. I was growing toward believing the contrast too harsh. I am surprised at how readable I find this new brown-on-brown text. I find the small text very readable on my S4.
So, I will be disappointing you and mostly keeping this layout design. Still, I do appreciate your feedback.
I do have the theme in a design frame and I will be making changes. I find the links in text are overpowering. I plan to tone them down. And there are some other things to be fixed or tweaked. Hopefully you’ll be able to tolerate it here.
The RSS feed is broken again. Same error as before ๐
I saw that… :/ I’m trying to find it. Thanks for saying.
It works ! Thank you very much !
Thanks for saying so. The problem was in a file I thought was not in use. I still have to sort that out as I will eventually need the file.
