Because I Can Never Seem To Make Up My Mind…
Posted by Kate on Wednesday Jul 8, 2009 Under MusingsHere is a new theme!
I liked the “Open Air” theme by Woo Themes, but it just felt too impersonal. I tried my hand at enhancing the design to add a little more Kate into the mix, but everything I did broke something else. Frustrating.
I particularly like this theme for a number of reasons.
1.) The header graphic. It’s insanely cute. It tells a story. It’s somewhat tailored to who I am. Not only is the animation stunning, but you can interpret it a number of ways. It could be that I am the little girl in the middle with her eyes closed, dreaming of conquests, monsters and giraffes. It’s got a fantasy/sci-fi feel to it. Or perhaps, I’m showing that playing games with my friends is the best feeling in the world. Because really, the action depicted in the scene can be anything from D20 RP to RPG and strategy video games. It’s totally me. The only thing this picture is missing is the red dragon of desire doom.
2.) Neon – Who doesn’t like neon colors? (Okay, maybe you don’t, but I do, so nyeh.)
3.) It’s clean. The font is perfect, the sidebar is perfect (with the exeption of popular posts– which I’m working on).
4.) It’s fun. The whole theme just says “play with me” and I feel that it reflects the type of person I am or aspire to be on most days.

I like it. It’s easier to read, for one thing, and it does say “This is Kate’s blog!”
