My first WordPress theme
February 23rd, 2006 23:29:21

screenshot.pngFinally I finished work on the very first WordPress theme of mine… Well I finished the first version. It’s designed for version 2.0+ of WP and I named it “Rusty”, but don’t know why :).

I started development using the default theme created by this talented, well known guy - Michael Heilemann … and I finished it in this way, removing some of the pages that I haven’t succeed to realize where the f**k they are used: 404.php, archives.php, attachment.php, comments-popup.php, links.php. Maybe someone that reads the post can help me with that issue. I’ll appreciate that.

Because my English is very weak, I want to stop torturing my readers. So if the screenshot above looks promising to you, you’ll find links for theme preview and download on that page. Also I’ll try to participate in WordPress 2.0 Theme Design Competition located at this address. You may find some stunning themes there after 29th February 2006. That’s it.

Hi, I downloaded your theme. It’s very nice and actually one of the better Wordpress themes that I’ve seen in a very long time. I did notice however that the calendar doesn’t have it’s own CSS and when you use the Wordpress template tag for it, it looks rather crowded against the edge of the sidebar.

It isn’t really a theme breaking issue, but something you could look out for in future theme releases because there are a lot of people that use the calendar feature. :)

Other than that, it’s an awesome theme and keep up the good work.

Thank you people for the feedback. My English is weak to express how glad I am to read your comments and to realize that you appreciate my work. I’ll fix the calendar as soon as possible and I’ll keep that in mind for future releases. Thanks again.

This is truly the best wordpress template I have seen. I want to use it but I need three columns. If you design one with three columns, please email me.

Hi, Frederiq,

Although I’m quite sure that my efforts don’t deserve such words, I’m getting excited every time I read your warm comment. Thank you very much.
