It’s NewsDay, finally

June 19th, 20064 Comments

I just “released” NewsDay at the NewsDay homepage. I will preface this release with a warning: do not install NewsDay unless you have some experience working with WordPress themes. I’m releasing it because I’ve been getting emails lately from people that wanted to use the theme.

I’m very happy with how the design of NewsDay turned out, and that is part of the reason I am finally releasing it. Of course, I have not tested it on any browser or operating system except Firefox in Windows XP. That only accounts for about 60% of the visitors to College Startup and probably smaller percentages on some sites.

In future releases I will clean up code, rearrange the sidebar code so that it’s all in one file, utilize conditionals, etc. This was my first attempt at a WordPress theme and I learned quite a bit.

Later this month I plan on releasing InsideWii.net’s design as a theme – although it will be edited quite a bit and I’ll be changing it to something less focused on “niche blogging” and more focused on just a cool looking blog.

If you do decide to use NewsDay, let me know – it’s always fun to see people using something I’ve designed.

Looks like a nice theme. I may utilize it for a future site. If I do, I will be sure to let you know!

It’s a beautiful theme, yet there are some things that are broken, such as displaying pages in WP.

Thanks for sharing such a great theme Ben, and I look forward to seeing more works from ya!

Share your thoughts!!!
