After two solid days on my computer (and a heck of a backache to follow suit), I’ve finally come up with a theme that I actually liked. No offence to the person who did the Gossip City theme; it was cute and well done, but the trouble with free themes is that I-don’t-know-how-many-other people probably have the same theme either.
I present to you, the new Beautyholics Anonymous on WordPress.
I modified one of the free themes from Daily Blog Tips. I wanted something with cleaner lines, but still looked girly. So I redesigned the header, gave it a pink theme, added a few items here and there and cleaned up the sidebar. I’m pretty pleased with the result 🙂
If it isn’t too much of a hassle,
1. If you’ve subscribed to my feed either via email, or on your favourite RSS reader (thank you *mwah mwah*!), could you please resubscribe to the same feed? Apparently when I moved over to WordPress, some of y’all weren’t getting any updates, and I was told that this worked. Much obliged *grin*
2. Break the website! A designer’s the worst tester of a product he/she made. If you encounter any problems with any part of the site at all, please let me know.
Thanks!
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to find the husband to give me a good thumpin’ on the back.
Note: At the end of the day, I really wouldn’t have gotten the setup and all done so quickly if it wasn’t for Edrei. Mate, you are such a star. I owe you one 😉
Ooh so preeettyyyy! Good job, Tine! When So Loverly gets it own domain and starts shopping for a host, I’ll be pouncing on your for advice. =)
Gosh!!! This is really prettyyyyy…. in Paris Hilton’s language… That’s HAWT.
I’m gonna be brutally honest with you, Tine. My first reaction was “Wah! So nice!”. And I actually said it out loud with a little jump off my seat. 😀 No, I’m not trying to fan your butt! Really digging the new layout and theme. Only gripe for me would be the comment box is *above* everyone else’s comments. I kinda prefer to read other people’s comments first before making my own. It’s not biggie but just something unfamiliar.
My blog needs a makeover too. But I’m too dungu with techie stuff and I’m lazy to try. Lol! maybe next year 😉
Looks good Tine! 🙂 Superb job!
Kahani:
I just hope I’d be able to help you out by then. I’m still so green at this! But thanks for the compliments nevertheless 🙂
Daphne:
Hee hee, thanks.
Connie:
Thanks for the idea. Yeah, I’d like that too actually, to read the comments first before putting in my own. You wish is my command, my dear. It’s now fixed 😉
Indulgent Diva:
Aww thanks babes.
looks really nice! i agree with connie. i wow-ed at first glance, it gives me a jappie-sakuraish feelings.
Wow! I was on Wordpress for about 5 mins. I have invested sooooooooo much time into Blogger (and this is the old blogger, which I learned CSS for). I couldn’t deal with learning a code.
I modded my blog from a template I found online too. I am sooooo ready for a new layout. 🙂
This looks great. You must have a VERY wide monitor. I can’t even see the side bars ( the pink) . I’m on an eMac.
Very very pretty! I’ve been on WP longer and I couldnt even do anything to the standard theme LOL… tells you a lot about my creativity yes? 😉 Good job girl!
Thanks for the fix! Love them cherry blossoms. So purrtie.
This is a nice base theme. I can see why you chose it. I can probably tweak it really good if I had the time for it. Plenty of things to swap around, but the layout itself is giving ideas.
Hmmm…I just might go ahead and start my own public release theme soon. 🙂
Oooh, just a thought. You might want to put your search bar on top on the header itself. There is a lot of space there, you might as well use it.
I really love your new look, Tine! I always like clean, simple themes and tried to ‘keep it simple’ with my theme as well 😛
And welcome to Wordpress!

Hey Tine, it looks very pretty:) How did u make such a beautiful header? Are you into graphic designing?
“Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to find the husband to give me a good thumpin’ on the back.” – that just sounded rather…wrong. LOL!!
That aside, loving the new theme – although, is there some way to subscribe to the comments?
