It's now Bank Holiday Monday, you probably won't be surprised to hear I have eaten too many easter eggs and am quite sick of chocolate, until tomorrow.
After modifying the Greenway CSS template for use as a DNBE theme, I really wanted to be able to create more themes. But this time from scratch all by myself rather than taking something someone else had created and just modifying it. I have a knowledge of CSS and have mainly used it for formatting and styles, but hadn't mastered the art of page layout with CSS. A quick search on Google brought up a lot of results but one particular tutorial caught my attention on Subcide. They have a step by step tutorial on creating a 3 column layout from scratch, just what I was looking for. I like the fact that the author explains the Why and Wherefore of his methods. IE quirks are even taken into consideration. The finished product uses nothing but XHTML, CSS and a few images.
The next blog theme or CSS template I create will be done while following this tutorial. I recommend you read it, especially if you are starting out using web design or using CSS.
