Just another s9y theme - RoundedCorner

Post by abdussamad »

Hello

I have been tinkering with a new theme for a long time and now I think it is good enough for release. Its not the best looking theme out there but it is valid css and xhtml. It is also tableless..well except for the calendar plugin. I have learned a lot developing this theme and I hope you like it. You can read about it here. I tested it as best I could but it might still contain bugs. So if you find any please let me know.

Hi!

Wow, I think that theme really looks unique! It definitely is good looking!

I just committed your theme to Spartacus!

Best regards,

Outstanding! I was going to attempt something similar, but I was boggled at the difficulty of adding so many extra divs to get all the corners round.

Very impressive job. Congratulations!

Hi

Unfortunately I have found a bug in this theme that causes XHTML validation to fail if more than one sidebar is used :oops: . I have fixed the bug and updated the zip on my site. You can download it by clicking here.

Very nice theme. I just switched it on one of my sites. It looks great in FireFox and I've seen this a few times in IE 6 so I'm not blaming your template but I know someone can answer this. I have the 'Powered by' with the small s9y logo on the right hand sidebar and the logo is all out of size.

http://www.affordablepcgeek.com Is there a way to fix that or is it just IE? :?

I also know this isn't because of your theme but when you look at the same site in IE vs FireFox, the FireFox and Google Pack buttons disappear in IE! Imagine that!

Love the template[/url]

Hello

I suggest you validate the theme. You will find a number of errors caused by incorrect code in your entries and your html nugget. For ex: there is an extra double quotation in the tag for your pc-geek button. Re. the missing google images, when I open your page in IE the first thing that I get is a javascript error. It seems that your google ad JS code is causing problems and if I am not mistaken the google pack image is generated by that code.

Also if you want your css to validate you will have to remove the browser compatibility plugin.

Thanks for the fast reply. I just got rid of the entire HTML Nugget that had all the buttons in it and most of the errors went away and it made the s9y button act right. I guess I have some more cleaning up to do! Thanks for the help and the theme.
