I’ve been tossing around the idea of revamping CoffeeBear.net’s theme for ages now. Many months ago, I started building a new theme entirely from scratch but I ran into some difficulties with it and ran out of time motivation for doing that. Then a while ago, I saw the Romangie theme get posted to the WordPress Themes directory. I liked most everything about the theme, so I decided to dump the what I’d started working on and build a child theme instead.
And that brings us to today when I decided to go ahead and pull the trigger activating the new look. Most of changes are centered around two areas: support for the Now-Reading Reloaded plugin[ref]Though I see after activating the new theme that I forgot to customize Now-Reading’s Tag page. Whoops, I’ll have to get that fixed ASAP![/ref] and switching up the colors. My colors all come from this photo being run through the Colorpeek service to get this palette.
Hopefully this fresh look works well for all my faithful visitor(s); but if you do find a problem please let me know.
