It’s been quite a while since i last released a wordpress theme so i decided it would be appropriate to launch a brand new cool theme. Although valentine day has passed you can use this theme for general usage, but i also included a valentine logo with the theme.

As you can see i am also using this theme(well till my custom theme will be coded…which might take a while due to health issues of BetNg4U, and i’m not planning on letting anyone else do the job because it will have lots of features that are not so easy to do).

Some of you might say that it’s a bit girl-is because of all the red and pink. Well it’s not. It’s main purpose was to be a valentine day theme yet a theme for general usage with a sleek professional look.

Because of the health issues of BetNg4U and the studying issues of Cypherhackz ( he is graduating this year, and he needs to study, study,study) Naif coded the theme for me. I worked with him last year on a phpLD theme that i made. I was looking for a professional coder when i remembered him, and PM-ed him on DP. He did the job within 24hours and fixed the bugs that popped up, i checked and rechecked it and everything seems to be working fine.

LoveBlog’s Features(you will love this part):

Fluid width! - The theme has a fluid width, meaning that it will stretch out in all browsers giving your blog great appearance.

2 columned theme ( 1 right sidebar column and 1 content column)

Advertisement ready! - No no no, i am not referring to adsense or widgetbucks!, i am refering to affiliate ads. If you have a running blog you can start selling ad space on your blog right away! you can add as many 125×125px ads to the sidebar as you like.

I hooked you up with a “Advertise here” banner, you can just replace it with affiliate banners, or just keep it there and link it to your advertisement page to find advertisers.

To add the advertisement banners you need to open up sidebar.php and add your html code there in the <div id=”advertisements”> section.

Here’s an example:
<a href=”http://www.thaslayer.com”><img style=”border:0″ src=”http://themes.thaslayer.com/4/wp-content/themes/LoveBlog/images/ad.jpg” width=”125″ height=”125″ ></a>

Widget ready sidebar - the sidebar below the Advertisements section is widget ready, you can add widgets from your wordpress admin panel.

A cool blue talk-bubble favicon(which is hosted on my server, so you don’t need to worry about loosing it )

2 logos to choose from - in the package i included both the psd of the general logo and the psd of the valentine logo along with the font used

If you want to use a bigger logo than 250×75px you will have to edit in style.css the #header h1 part:

#header h1 {
margin: 0; padding: 0;
width: 250px; height: 75px;
font-size: 1px; font-weight: normal;
text-indent: -999em;

The theme is using Brian’s Threaded Comments version 1.5.9 to give your visitors a bit of extra flexibility.

LoveBlog Theme is fully compatible with latest wordpress release!

Page commenting system - Your visitors have the possibility to comment your pages, not just posts! example: http://themes.thaslayer.com/4/?page_id=10

Works flawlessly in all browsers(Firefox 1.x/2.x, Opera, IE 6, IE 7)

The top right menu items ( Homepage | Sitemap | Contact ) can easily be edited from header.php

You will not have any sponsored links in the footer, only a link-back to my blog which i kindly ask you to keep.
