It’s been aaaaages since my last update on the development of the new Left Hand Red Wordpress theme, and that’s because there hasn’t been much developing. Last week, however, I pushed myself to plow on.
The dark grey scheme wasn’t inspiring me much, so I’ve replaced it with a white/light grey scheme with red highlights, and ditched the single-column format with the addition of a second column for secondary navigation and blurb. I’ve only really been blocking things out, and it’s very much still ‘bare bones’, but once I’ve settled on a colour scheme and layout I will start introducing some graphics and styling touches.
I’m currently using a red background for hovered links (see below), which looks quite striking on the simple, monotone background.
I’m probably still going to use a single-column layout for single posts and pages. I’m also going to implement Gravatars for comments, which I have more recently added to the existing site.
