'Kamouflage' theme available to download

Post by d_cee »

Hi

I finally found the time to finish my military theme based on Lordcoffee's excellent 'Green Mile'.
'Kamouflage' is a fixed width template with left and right sidebars.
For those who are inclined, it should be easy to customise as I've used Carl Galloway's well commented CSS file - and tiling images.

You can view and download 'Kamouflage' from my themes site

great stuff, excellent looking theme.

Have you thought about throwing in some different headers with an image at the right hand side, maybe an anti-aircraft gun, a tank, soldier radioing coordinates etc?

Hi Carl - and thanks :-)

I had thought of doing what you suggested but because I wanted to keep the image sizes small I decided to do it with the category icons instead. Small images allowed me to keep the system overhead low for (hopefully) fast page loads on dial up connections.

The css file doesn't validate by the way. Looks fine in Firefox, but looks horrible in IE. No part of the content is readble. Do you have a validated version?

Hi Blake

you're right :oops:

I'll post a valid css file on my themes site this evening (UK time) and send an updated file to Garvin to commit to Spartacus.

Thanks. Sorry if my last message sounded harsh, I had just gotten off a long day in the army lol It suits my needs perfectly for my military blog. I may try changing the type of camo though since the US Army is going to the new ACU pattern.

Thanks for the cool theme!
