I launched the current Nusuni.com theme in July. Well, as soon as I launched it I realized I left out the search box, so I tossed it on top of the sidebar (I wanted to originally put it where the subscription info is).
Today I finally went to move the search box to the top and I’ve have come to the conclusion this whole thing is just completely unoptimized (files loading files loading messed up CSS files, yuck).
So, sticking with the tradition around here of tweaking the theme every month or so, I’m doing it once more. Sometime later today or tomorrow I will post a screenshot of what the new slightly modified theme will look like to see if you guys like it (if you don’t I’ll leave it as is and just clean up the existing PHP files).
I’m trying to make it much less boring (more images in posts, I promise!), and a bit more optimized (eg: cleaning useless code out of the PHP files).
I am still not sure what I’m going to do with the header/menu area, so please chime in with any ideas. I’m leaning toward changing the menu text and making the whole header area fixed size instead of having it stretchy. What do you think?
The sidebar will also be condensed a bit more and some bugs with it will be fixed for IE 6 users (believe it or not some people still use that)
So since I’ll have Photoshop and TextWrangler opened up with the theme stuff I figure, heck, let’s see if you guys have any ideas. Feel free to chime in, you’re thoughts really do help a lot.
Please subscribe, or else I will cry. Do you really want to make a programmer cry?

Err, a bug. Whenever I click any of the category links on the side I get the default Kubrick template. I’m not sure if you’re working on it at this very moment, but thought you’d like to know.

LOL, yeah sorry about that, I was just fixing the css file up and wordpress went back to the default theme.
Whoops

It’s coming along pretty damn good IMO. It’;s actually putting me to shame. I’ve been planning on a complete theme re-design for the past 4 months now. Just never seem to have the time.
I may crack open my new Dreamweaver CS3 and see what I can do. Or maybe not…
Did I ever mention that I’m just a lazy bumb?

MacBros, it’s not called being a lazy bum, it’s called “Ergophobia” (fear of work). Everything has to have a medical name these days

[…] has only been a few weeks since I started using a new theme, but today I went through it and tweaked it up a bit and made it 50 times better. It is a bit wider […]
