Don’t worry. I am not going to stop talking about making money online. I mean a new wordpress theme; in other words, a layout.
I am stuck between these two themes. I was going to post on a forum to help me pick, but they aren’t the ones that read my blog. You guys are. So check out each theme and comment telling me which one you liked the best. The one with the most votes at the end of the week will be selected as my new theme!
Here they are…
Theme Two – (Johnny Bravo image removed though)
Johnny Bravo sans Bravo all the way! I always liked the green on here, and I think that will really look nice. Not TOO drastic of a change, but enough to make a difference. (imho of course).
No offence, but I liked the Theme one more. Just change the menu to a bit more green if you are selecting it.
No offense taken Sarat! Haha. I want to know everyone’s opinion!
I vote theme 2
I too go with Theme one
Honestly, I don’t like themes with big fonts and images all around it..!
I dunno what about the 2nd one I like better just looks better too me…looks like im getting outvoted though
Now someone is agreeing with me!
By the way, Casey, do you know how to edit wordpress theme files and all?
Thanks for voting guys! Try to spread the word, because I don’t want to be stuck on a tie!
Yeah Sarat, I do. I mean, I’ve never switched themes on wordpress before, besides at the beginning, but I think I will manage!
Got your link off of a comment on one of my PureBlogging.com posts.
I’m not a big fan of either of those themes to be honest with you – I guess I’ll go into some detail:
Johnny Bravo: Graphics are horrible – on the verge of causing blindness. Your current theme is bright, but not shoot yourself in the face with a .40 bright. The content area is very skinny – your limiting yourself on in-post graphics, advertisements, and so much more. The headers within each section are graphical – poor SEO juice. The text is pretty small, although this is easily changed, you’re going to run into spacing issues I think. The comments aren’t displayed in a very user friendly fashion – the text on white is a weird offshoot from the rest of the site with crappy transitioning to that new styling.
After looking at the first one again I actually do like it – just not the colors. I’d put in a few hours Photoshopping that one up. Your content is nice and wide, plenty of space to make that text a bit larger. The 2-column span box in the sidebar offers a great opportunity for a 250×250 ad and I happen to love 2-column sidebars. They offer a lot of room for content in the sidebar (and sponsorship 125×125 buttons). I would put in some work on the byline of the post (date, category, comments, etc). I looked over it a few times before noticing the links. You definitely want to highlight your comments – encourage people to participate on your blog. The comments will look nice after some Photoshopping of the graphics and some CSS work to match the word you put in on the header.
Go with #1.
Thanks for your input!
I don’t like the colors too. I’d definitely change the blue-green to a more pure green, similarly to the colors of this theme. The black would probably be changed too.
Thanks a lot!
