It’s all about the color people. :)

The day has finally arrived…After playing around with it and letting it sit in my dev folder for a couple months, the Supr Preppy WordPress theme is now available for download.

Supr Preppy WP Theme

Here’s a basic overview and gotchas:

  • WordPress Compatibility: Theme tested and working with WordPress 1.5.x through 2.5.x
  • Browser Compatibility: Tested and working in all current browser versions. Slight modifications made for IE6 (basically, they won’t be seeing all the awesome goodness of Supr Preppy due to its poor support for transparent PNGs)
  • Widgets: There are three sidebar options under the widget management — top side, left side, and right side (should be fairly self explanatory
  • WP 2.5.x features: The comments form will show avatars if you’re using WP 2.5.x and have avatars enabled
  • CSS Styling: I’m still tightening up the CSS styling, so there may be elements which stand out — you can tweak them yourself, if you feel so inclined, or you can wait for an update as I receive more feedback
  • Changing the Rainbow: Switching the flow of colors can be tricky if you have no idea what you’re doing. Otherwise, you can switch up the colors by tweaking the array at the top of the index.php and archive.php template files. In a future version, I may add an option panel to control this — remember, this is just the first release
  • There’s no live theme preview available, but if you’re snappy, you may be able to catch the theme in action on my personal blog before I change it back to its original design.

    The theme is free, but please leave my designer credit in tact. (In more specific terms, this theme is released under the Creative Commons Attribution license.) If you don’t have any problems with that, please feel free to download and play around with it.

    If you need support or have questions, I’ve already started a thread at the WP support forum. Otherwise, comments and feedback are always welcome.
