The new version of Terracotta is out. It fixes the bug with the IE browser. All the thanks should be addressed to Dan Chiriac - the guy who solve that annoying problem. By the way he has an extremely good-looking modification of Terracotta. You can find it at this address. Thanks a lot Dan. Anytime you need some help, you can count on me.
I already used two of your templates (I only have two wordpress blogs yet) but I hope I will make a new blog each time you take out a new template :) Thanks for your great work
I don’t know if I’ll be able to release soon a new theme, because your work inspired me to try to make some modifications to the old ones :). You have a good feeling about the colors. Really.
This is by far one of the most eye pleasing and trendy themes out there! It’s exactly what I wanted for my webpage but couldn’t seem to design due to my lack of knowledge of php. I’ll get there someday, though! Terracotta is what my website currently uses and it looks very lovely! Thank you for sharing the theme!
Comment for Martin Mihalev; I do not have a website or an rs feed, so I cannot post a comment on Nevada thunder. I find your new design and colors hard to read. The colors are nice, but just hard to see light type on darker ground. Is there any way to modify this? I really like reading Nevada Thunder articles. Now I find it is more difficult. Could there be an option for changing the type colors? Appreciate your response, Thank you, Alice Hagan
Hi, Alice,
I can’t force Nevada Thunder to change their theme, but there are some tricks you can do to read the text. One of them is marking the text. Go to the start of the paragraph you want to read and click the left mouse button, holding the button drag the pointer to the end of the paragraph. Now the background is brighter and the text is darker. Another way is to disable the css styles.
I really like it but it does appear not to call certain plugins that uses Hooks.

Hi, drmike,
I’m currently not familiar with plugins that uses Hooks. Can you explain me briefly what stays behind this term? If you have time of course.
Hi Martin,
I liked Terracotta a lot, so much I dared to try to localize it to hebrew (that is text direction from right to left, see link). I hope that is ok with you…
Thanks,
Marc
Hi, Marc,
I’m very glad to meet someone spending his time to modify my work. Of course that I’m OK with that. Feel free to do whatever you want with my themes.
Best wishes,
Martin
Martin,
this might be a stupid question: since the hebrew font is at this size at higher resolutions barely readable, I tried to play a little with your stilesheet as well. The question: do you know a way to increase the size a point or two generally, without shooting the header totally out of its position?
I coudn’t manage to tweak it somehow…
Marc
Hi, Marc,
Sorry for the late answer. I don’t know in which way you break the header visual representation. I need you to show me.

great work!! Im wondering if you could add a colum to the right and center the entire template .. reduce the open space. it seems to be conventional wisdom to leave so much open space, when i think its harder on the eyes. visit yahoo.com to see how much space they leave. anyhow, i love your designs.

Виждам, че продължаваш все така в същия дух. Браво. Чудесно се справяш. За съжаление немога да се похваля със същото свободно време като твоето, за да довърша моята втора версия на стъклената тема, поради професионални ангажименти, но се радвам, че ти успяваш!
Успех!
Great template I love terracotta !!
I do have a small question though. I am trying to implement a email form and would like the link on each Post automatically. I was wondering if there is a way to add a gmail icon to each post in the top left corner and how I would go about doing that.
Thanks a ton !
Are comments/questions being deleted? I had a valid question and now its gone !
Hi, Kent,
Currently my regulat job didn’t allow me spend time on theme creation or modifications. Honestly I don’t see Terracotta like a 3 column theme, but if I had time I could give it a try.
Здрасти, Maryndor,
Да си призная честно аз също нямам свободно време последните няколко месеца, освен да чистя spam-а. Иска ми се да направя някоя нова тема, но засега нямам дори сносна идея. Пожелавам ти да намериш време и да довършиш започнатото.
Hi,
Your comment is not deleted, I’m holding all the comments for moderation due to the large amount of spam.
Where you want to add the gmail icon? At the top left corner bellow the post title or above the date of the post?
Left corner 1st portion of the post. Right underneath of the post title.
Here is a simple solution:
You need to put the text <a style=”display: block;” href=”your_link_here” ><img src=”your_image_link_here” /></a> right after the text <a class=”post_title” href=”<?php the_permalink() ?>” rel=”bookmark” title=”Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>”><?php the_title(); ?></a> in the following php pages: index.php, single.php, archive.php, search.php. I hope that this information is usefull.
This time put the link before the content I mentioned in the comment before. But in the style attribute of the link add the text “float: right;” right after the “display: block;”. This should do the work.
