I made this wordpress theme and now I don't know what to do with it so I'm posting it here. The theme name is Fodri Pulao, a very authentic and rural goan term for a nice delicacy :)

There's a lot of transparency going on here and there so it looks kinda neat. One can change the background to suit ones liking. Logo is also replaceable very easily. Widget ready

Do leave your comments, whatever they may be.

Fodri Pulao :lol: The word Fodri and Fodrya are used a lot but never have been used with Pulao :lol:

The theme is slick. It's really slick. Simple yet elegant.

Hahah. Nice name. Though try better fonts for the text like Trebuchet MS, etc.

Well I like how Verdana looks there. Then again, changing the font involves just changing one small aspect of the stylesheet.

And I didn't know Fodri was such a widely used term...

*Theme files added*

To everyone: Nice to know. Nice to know.

And someone did try to persuade me to change the name to "dark wood", but the name sooo stays! :D

really slick. But You could have added an extra sidebar instead of wasting all that space in the borders.

Wow! Excellent theme :)

What is this in the CSS? :D

" Keep this piece of text, if only to make the author feel good about himself. Although if you plan on making money,
you better remove it cause it won't make good business sense! Also, listen to a lot of coldplay.

Requirement to use this theme: Leave me a comment on my blog. :)

But you'll look sweet upon the seat of a bicycle built for two.""

^^ Not sure whether it's marathi, I think it's Goan, a friend of mine with Goan roots uses it a lot as slang.

Wonder ful theme..
downloaded it..will use it my new site..:)

OMG...
Take a look of the theme at IE6...:eek:
Dunno why all themes are displayed such wired in IE6

It is important to make the themes displayed correctly in IE6 coz it's one of the most used browser...
If u could make it compatible with IE6 then it's wonderful..:)

^^ Most of the images in this theme are PNG and IE6 doesnt support PNG format, thats why it'll not display the theme properly. :)

Offtopic: Its konkani actually..but Marathi and konkani are similar..it is often used here :D

Ontopic: There is a fix(script) for displaying PNG images properly in IE6. Google it.

Not only that the sidebar is misalligned...
This is the same case of 90% of all themes that i have seen ...
the sidebar will be at the bottom :(

BTW thanks for the info...i will try converting png to jpg and see the result :)

Is it this

..? :D
Whew i never knew that png can't be displayed by IE6...We can't neglect this coz it's still one of the most used browsers :cool:

Oh I'm sorry. In my haste of releasing this awesome named theme I forgot to do the IE testing. Nevertheless, there will be a 1.1.2 edition of the theme with full IE compatibility (if that is ever possible).

And I'm pretty sure the word is Konkani.

Change all the png images to gif (if your require transparency). That would fix things in ie.
The sidebar often comes to bottom if there is some overlapping. Check that the dimensions of each div (including padding and all) adds up.

Title.... if I remember correctly it is Kloegirl New York. I could add the PSD if someone wants.

As for IE6 compatibility, really didn't have any time to work on that. Thing is I have to travel all the way to wherever cause I don't have IE6 at home to work on. Maybe a week?
