An Actors’ Blog 1.5

looks very good, i like the turned page effect on your posts but i also think the whole site is a little to narrow and should be widened a little

hey thanks bryan, i was pretty happy with the corner folds myself ?? I did a lot of browsing through my fav magazines but it was just the subtle things like the folds that pulled off the theme more than anything.

Very nice. I like the layout. Reminds me of a magazine cover. Although, the colors are a little feminine.

thanks madie ?? perhaps i’m expressing my feminine side a bit? haha I dunno. Once again, i’m glad the magazine theme is coming through.

Nothing wrong with the feminine side. : ) It is a nice design. It an eye catcher.

Cool one ?? I dig it ?? No negative sides at all except for the horizontal lines in the bg, make my eyes flick :p But as said, I dig whole site, very nice work!

Great design, and makes for interesting reading as well. I was particularly surprised at how good the cyan looks. I tend to stay away from it because I find it a bit ~@|@~, but with your design, is in good balance with the whites and oranges, and has now given me cause to change my mind.

Make more designs please and release for the rest of us ??

well thanks again! i’ve had several people asking for the design so I’m gonna go ahead and make a template soon and release it. I’m contemplating releasing it along with a new redesign but i’ll have to think about that.

Of course it might not be for a while, I just moved to Seattle so I’ve got a lot of stuff to take care of, along with getting broadband again!

soon. ??

JT! My mom and I have desperately been trying to figure out how to make the perfect magazine theme. Yours is still the best we can find. Please please let us know when you can share your theme. Hope things are going well in Seattle.

hey takeiteasymama! thanks for the interest and all the kind comments. madie thanks you too, i enjoy your blog as well.

I decided that I will only offer up the theme once I retire this one and do a redesign. But for now this design is working for me and I still enjoy it. In the meantime I am working on another theme (that i’m rather excited about) to hopefully tide you over.

If you have suggestions for themes i’m definitely open to them as well. ??

Hey joey. I like the pull-down menus for sorting your Archive. I particularly like the option of sorting “by title” (alphabetic), I’m hoping to have alphabetic post sorting by title on my category pages (and in the archives), so this gives me hope (starting my 1st WP).

On your magazine theme, I noted the bar-code and mailing-address sticky with postal barcode at the bottom. I have to say I am kinda tired of seeing dogeared page corner-graphics at the top (it’s an old GUI style, on and off web) but your pagecorners look better than most, and I especially like your dogeared page at the bottom corners (it seems more vertical, like turning into the next page of the magazine rather than just folding down the corner). Two more things, your eye looks kinda red in the header graphic, the red might be brought-out by the surrounding blue. And your cyan teal stripe background reminds me of JAMZ shorts.

thanks Dgold, just noticed your comment. appreciate you taking the time to look at my site ??
