Just a Few Quick Modifications to change the look and feel…
Here’s what the Denver SEO Blog looks like now:
What Changes Did We Make?
- Changed the hover color of the nav menu to a blue that we like
- Moved the nav menu below the header
- Adjusted the padding around the nav menu to line it up with the Title
- Changed the color of the background to match the nav menu hover color
- Changed Nav menu font to Arial
- Changed Site Font to Verdana
- Removed the nav menu borders for a more miminmal look
- Disabled the multi-media box on the pages (still active on individual posts if desired)
- Setup our posts to display the most recent post in excerpt form, and add all other posts as teasers
- Set teaser images to display 250×150
- Added an orange background color to all links when hovering.
That’s it for now. More to come in the next few days as I continue to drink coffee and play around with the site…
Gotta say I love Thesis, and the changes that I made already can be found on the Thesis home page. There’s a 24 minute video covering these basic changes…
