Changed my theme…
Posted by chrystibella on October 3, 2008
I was getting tired of the “Cutline” theme I was using for my blog. The fonts were not pretty. Plus I wanted to have three columns. So went in search of a new theme and found this one.
I had to do some tweaking as I host my blog on my own server. I tried and tried to get my image to take the place of that green header but no luck. So I finally gave up. If I can figure it out, I’ll get the image back. Still, I think the blog looks spiffy. =) I’m having issues with the header. Grrrrr…
October 8, 2008 UPDATE: A special thank you to Brandon Cox, the designer of this theme who came to my rescue and helped me troubleshoot the codes so that my custom header came back up. I would never have expected him to go to the trouble but it was important to him that I got what I wanted. Thank you Brandon! I appreciate that you didn’t give up when I was ready to settle for the grey banner just to have my three columns and the font that I liked.
While I was at it I also changed the look and name of one of my web sites. It is now called California Party Connection and can be found at http://CaliforniaPartyConnection.com.
This is still a work in progress. I’ll probably make more changes.
As for the blog, I’m liking it.

I made the header. It’s actually from a painting that my father did. He’s a talented artist and this is one of my favorites. I used a portion of her face for my header.
I wasn’t able to get my header to replace the one that Brandon had made which was a plain green header. He had to tweak the code in the header php file for me to get it to show up.
If you have your own hosting service you can uplaod wordpress as your blog service from wordpress.org and then download this them and upload it to your server.
