Design Update - digitalself-redesign v2.0
Posted on May 10th, 2008 at 13:05 in My World
Following up on a new and improved work method based around local servers and git, I sat down to put theory to practice and began working on an improved theme for this blog.
The new workflow really allows me to pay attention to detail, enabling a trial and error methodology without fearing breakage, on code or design. The new theme really feels more polished, at least to me, when comparing to the old design. I can now post images that actually blend in to the post content, or enable tags and categories that provide useful information.
The theme is still entirely original with the exception to the icons that are designed and distributed for free by Go Squared Ltd. I really like their simple iconsets.
Comments are very much appreciated. I still think the site needs some bling. What say you ?
Well, Albeit my taste is more inclined right now to sites with more whites in it, I must say that this combination of dark colors works well and overall I like your design.
About the workflow thing, I must say that the important thing is to get things done, regardless of the method. Only saying this because my site was suppose to be done for quite some time, and is still in the beginning.
The only thing missing now is you publishing this design so everyone can enjoy it.
Nice theme! Thanks for linking back to GoSquared.
Cheers,
James

Well, give me time… give me time. The plan is to release it as GPL, but there is still need to replace header images with text, so that “one size fits all”.
@James
It was the least I could do. I also added some text in the header, as an HTML comment. If I do release the theme as GPL, then the authorship information will be passed along. Thanks for your great design.
