Sometimes it is best to start over.

The old design of my wordpress blog

So for all of you who have been here since the beginning I have been working on my own theme for word press.  Like most I started with a little help and cannibalize another theme to start.  So most of you might have seen my Notepad 1.0

But ever since I started with the theme I have found short comings.  Css code that caused more problems then it solved.  Errors in the php code and other such limitations. I have now been learning more about wordpress for a couple of months and I have learned what I should have been doing from the beginning.  I have tried to alter the theme I started with for the last couple of weeks but now I have decided to give up on the old crappy antiquated Php code from the old theme and decided to start all over. Here it is the new version of the theme NotePad 2.0 and with it I have added some really nice new looks including:

  1. A New  Footer
  2. Simplifying the Section Navigation
  3. Killing the Top Navigation and only having a right Nav
  4. Redesigning the Look and Feel of the Side Nav
  5. Adding much more Texture and Depth to the design
  6. Utilizing new Rollover Css Tricks I have been learning at work.

I hope you all enjoy the new Matt Watier Children Book Section.
