Here's the link to my blog theme:
http://ucwebtemplate.blogspot.com/
As I said in an earlier post, I tried to theme it around my wedding videography business. I've been meaning to get a site for it up and running for a while now and this was the perfect opportunity to kill two birds with one stone. I followed a number of tutorials online to get it the way it is, using peoples various tips and tricks to achieve my visual goals. For example I used CSS to get rid of the blogger toolbar at the top and to hide the title text so that it would show the banner I made for it instead. I used flickr.com to host all the images that I used in the theme, I found it a lot quicker than uploading them to my web server. My flickr page can be found HERE. It'll give you an idea of all the images I used in making the theme. Many of them I created myself, others I modified of existing images from other peoples blogs. The navbar along the top works, but all the buttons are linked back to the main page of the blog, the reason I did this was because it shows that the nav is working without me having to create all those extra pages for it, after all, that is beyond the scope of this project. I have too many other assignments to create the other pages, I'll make them for myself during the holidays, and they wouldn't be part of the blog theme anyway.
That's it, I'm done for the semester! I've really enjoyed this class, I've learned a lot and I will definitely be using the skills from this course in the very near future. See you all next semester.
