Welcome to 3arn.Net Version 2Written by Abdulrehman on December 24th, 2008
While many of you must be thinking about the new theme you see settled in place, with some bug fixing under process. Well, I thought it was about time for a much better 3arn.Net theme. The last theme was quite easy for me to make because of the less complicated divisions and features. But this theme, has brought for me, a lot of work and after working on the theme for about 1 month, I can now feel the fruit of hard-work! Like everybody else, you would also want to know why I made a new theme, I’ll list up the reasons:
- The upper fold(The area which can be seen without scrolling down) was not fully optimized and because of the initial design it was hard to put in exactly what I wanted.
- There was no menu on the whole blog.
- The division which contained articles and other text had a very dark color, usually it is preferred white, and once again since I had lost the design template that I made, it was hard to edit.
- The design elements were literally held by threads(I’m serious), you pull the thread and the whole design collapses
, plus pathetic editing had made my blog ugly in front of Google.
- There were too many errors, rather than knowing where to start, I started a making a new theme.
- Lastly, I simply wanted a new design!
If anyone says making a theme is easy, well I’m in a full position to comment on that! All that I am doing to Make Money on the Internet, is not as easy as it seems. Making a very basic theme with less designing more like free themes may not be as difficult as making a custom one. If you want to know where the most hard-work is put, just look for something you think is really simple, ‘That’s just hand-written HTML’ in other words. That is where I worked really hard.
Yes, it is a fact I am not too familiar with PHP, and then when you’re working and editing PHP, it sure is difficult. I’ll give you a hint: I spent 2 days working on the widget in the sidebar which says Recent Articles! You might be wondering why, just because I did not want each link to break into a second line if it was long, so it just displays the first 40 characters of the title followed by a ‘…’. But now it sure feels great to see the design alive and running flying about.
Your Part
It was my job to make a new theme and do all the work, but I need some help from you as well, now you’ve got to play your part. My judgment of colors and font is not very good, and although I feel very excited about the new design if you think that the previous one was better then please let me know. Any suggestion on the new design would also be highly appreciated. Thanks in Advance!
