WP Page Layout & Text Updates

Sunday, December 27, 2009 0:43

If you were surfing my site today you may have noticed that the look and feel of the site was changing frequently.  This was in preperation for another page on my website.  Today I decided it was time to change the layout of my WP pages a bit to make more room.  Thus I took out the entire sidebar and doubled the width.  I had to photoshop the bottom and top borders to fit the new size, and thus update the CSS to accomidate the new images and formatting.  I then had to update the page template (page.php) file to point to the new CSS code I added.  I couldn’t just replace the old information with the same tag names as I still wanted the posts to keep the previous formating.

For quite some time now I have always wondered if the text on my site was to lite for comfortable reading.  Now I never had any complaints from readers, but then again, perhaps no one reads long enough to care or just didn’t want to take the time… lol.  Quite alright as this is all about being a learning experience for me.  I darkened the text, from my perspective, to make it easier to read.  I didn’t darken the text for the tabbed content as much as I feel it is a secondary section of my website.  Some may not agree, and if you would like that text to be darker please let me know. I also darkened the text (a shade between the previous too) for the undisplayed pages in the navigation across the top.
