  Good theme and nice use of the icons...I like them...Tango I suppose :)

  It's very clean...maybe I should work on a design with it :) would you allow me to do so? Does it have any license that prohibit further modding and releasing of the theme?

  I did a design mod for Pressrow and released it some days back....it's called ColourFull Wall.perhaps I could bring a more plastic look to this one :)

  I don't particular build themes from scratch since I think that's a waste of time. Building on one that's simple, working on most platform and have easy codes are fine for me...

  Hans: Thanks! Feel free to use it as a base. The license is CC, so you can pretty much do whatever you like with it as long as you don't sell it. :)

  xzonisy: Many thanks! Are you having problems with images that are 500px in width? Could you give an example? If so, I'll test it out as best I can and see if I can work up a fix.

  xzonisy: Aha, I see your problem now. To fix the issue with text wrapping around the image:

  1) In the file "styles.css", find the line that begins with ".postcontent p img".

  2) Within that block, remove the line "float: left;".

  3) Save the file and reload your site.

  As far as the problems with wider images, unfortunately that's not "fixable" since the design is fixed-width. If I get some free time I'll see if I can make a wider version.

  There is a sort of workaround that will chop off any excess image rather than screw up the layout:

  1) In the file "styles.css", find the line that begins with ".postcontent p img".

  2) Within that block, add the line "overflow: hidden;".

  3) Save the file and reload your site.

  thank you dennis

  i do as you say , but i still have some problem , the Navigation bar still too width in IE , can i fix more narrow ?

  PS:overflow looks didnt work in IE (IE suck :P)

  zxonisy: Short of rebuilding the theme or using smaller images, there's not much more we can try.

  You can try the following, which may or may not work. In styles.css, find the folling block:

  .post {
margin: 0 10px 0 0;
padding: 5px 0;
}

  Change it to this:

  .post {
margin: 0 10px 0 0;
padding: 5px 0;
overflow: hidden;
}

  Can't really help much more than that without rebuilding. Sorry!

  i really like your theme you've developed and have been using it on my blog. is there a way for pictures to be displayed on the "front page" where you see post summparies, or can images only be viewed as you click on each individual post?

  thanks
