A theme to call my own
So after all the articles about creating themes I finally got round to finishing my own. After much pulling of hair I also made it work in Internet Explorer. Really, the pain that browser puts people through is unreal. Roll on IE7.
Anyway, I've tried to rearrange the layout so as to make it not look like Kubrick. The front page has a full-width lead article, followed by three smaller articles, and finished off with a list of titles. A single page post uses the full-width of the page. This was all designed to give maximum space for long articles. The CSS is also print-friendly.
The comments have been filtered so all 'real' comments are grouped separately from pings and trackbacks. A little bit of JavaScript hides the pings until clicked open. I think having many pings on a page really puts people off from commenting, not to mention looks really ugly.
I'd really appreciate any feedback, especially with regards bugs and problems. I've tested it in Firefox, Internet Explorer, and Opera, so I hope this means it will carry through to Mac browsers.
Oh, and there's a giraffe at last!

The RSS feeds do work, just not in your browser. Apparently the 'feed:' protocol has not propagated to all browsers (although I would have expected Firefox to understand it). You can remove the 'feed:' part by following these instructions in the WordPress support forums.

How come the rss feeds do not work. When I click on them I get "feed is not a registered protocol" Is this only happening to me. I use Firefox.
