As the name implies, a fluid width blue coloured template for your WordPress blog. Has two columns, right sidebar supports widgets. No fancy graphics, just simple, good looking design. Details and download link at the theme page. You can also preview and download from theme viewer.
One of the hardest thing while designing themes and templates is to suitably name them. I had to scratch my head a long time before naming this theme ‘Fluid Blue’. It’s surprising to find that, out of sixty three ‘fluid’ width ‘blue’ themes uploaded prior to this one at the theme viewer, none have been named ‘Fluid Blue’!
I have also made some improvements to my previous themes, few of those changes based on suggestions from the theme users, thanks for all the feed back. Those using these themes can download the latest versions here — Evanescence 1.3 and Crispy Cornsilk 1.1.
How to add a picture in the header of Fluid Blue?
To add a header image, upload the header image, say “header.jpg”, to your “/wp-content/themes/fluid-blue/” directory. Then open style.css and look for the following line under #header.
Replace that line with the following.
Let me know if you have any problems doing this.
This doesn’t work:
background:#237ab2 url(’header.jpg’) no-repeat top left;
but this (omitted quote signs) does!
background:#237ab2 url(header.jpg) no-repeat top left;
Thanks!
Good work. Let the subscribers of your feed know when you update it. 🙂
Sure, I’ll post a blog entry whenever I update the themes hereafter.
Teaxtarea font is too small and ugly. Can get it higher only if change a font-size of body,
but then everything is bigger.
Defining font size in textarea doesn’t change what i want:
textarea#comment {
font-size:1em;
width:60%;
}
?
try “font-size:1.6em;” under textarea#comment. It should work..
Thanks – as usually with you – it works.
Loooks like fixed font and size must be exactly matched?
Yes, that’s how it seems. 🙂
