A Journey Through WordPress Theme Design
Posted on March 28th, 2008 under Web Site DevelopmentA while back I started the tedious process of building a custom WordPress theme for my blog. I’d start a design and trash it sometimes in the same day. One day I came across a color scheme based on facebook that I really liked. The rest is history. All told it only took a couple hours a day for 3 days to complete the initial design.
I took a screenshots throughout the process with the idea of collaborating them into a slideshow. The slide show starts with my old theme and moves through the process as I took the default theme and re-designed it.
Here is a list of the resources I used for developing the new theme.
- Dreamweaver CS3
- Photoshop CS3
- Colorschemer
- I used this little tutorial for creating multiple widget sidebars
