New Theme, New Host, New Look!
Posted by Derevka on January 20, 2010 in Blog Updates

The blog has undergone some major plastic surgery!

We commissioned Lassirra from The Hunter’s Mark to create us this fantastic theme and she did a great job. She also helped me set it up. With the WP platform we have a lot more tools available to us that will help make the blog better, easier to read, and easier to find the articles you want to read.

Feel free to make comments on this post about what you think about it. We’ll be making a few changes here and there, so stay tuned over the next few days!

  1. Who’s the host?

    I dunno, though, I find the darker green tones to feel more Druid-y than Priest-y. But if you like it, rock on! :P

    I love the header, the overall color scheme and the RSS button. Nice work!

    I’m a little less fond of the gryphons (they eat up a lot of space and without complete wings they look a bit ‘broken/interrupted’) but it remains a great style.

    Good job! ;)

    Hosted at GoDaddy.

  4. Boo. Decent domain registrar but lordy are they a bad host, IMO.

    Ohh, one more note. The small menu on top of the main content “about” “Derevka’s UI” & “Contact us” gives a black background when hovering over it + the text turns white, on FF 3.5. I’m guessing it would look better with only the text turning white and not the background changing. Just a tip ;)

    (that would be:

    #dropmenu a:hover {
    background: #000; <—
    color:#fff;
    margin: 0;
    }
    )

  6. I dunno, I kinda like it, it gives the spaces a bit of pop.

  7. Zusterke says:

    It does give it more pop. I just feel it would look cleaner:

    But I’m overly critical, I really am… in case you haven’t noticed before :D

    I think it looks great and I love the header. It jumps right out at you and radiates a very ethereal presence.

    It looks gorgeous! Very WoW and very Priest :)

    I wish I had horns.

  11. Ika says:

    Amazing! I really love the new look :)
    So… epic.

    What’s going on here?

    -Mindplague.

  13. Avalonna says:

    I’ll just use this. It’s not horns, but it works.
