Themes
So here's my little foray into WordPress themes. From here you can download any themes I've produced, or read a guide to creating your own.
Guides to creating your own themes
If you want to try customizing your own theme, then have a look at my WordPress Theme Dissection - a set of guides dissecting a WordPress theme and hopefully demonstrating how to begin customizing your own.
You may also find it useful to read another guide I wrote on installing WordPress on a local computer. It makes the whole theme customization process a lot faster and easier, and protects you from accidentally messing-up your live website.
Themes for download
Currently standing at a grand total of two themes:
 |
Giraffe2 - WordPress 2.0 only version of the Giraffe theme. Has everything that Giraffe 1.23 contains, with the addition of configurable columns, WordPress Widget support, live preview options, customizable colour schemes, and a logo manager. Latest edition is 2.6.1, last updated August 13, 2007 |
 |
Giraffe - Fully customizable and localized fluid or fixed width theme. Posts are split into lead, recent, and older posts. Has a working print CSS, along with pre-defined colour schemes, and is configured via an administration interface. Latest version 1.23, last updated November 25, 2005 |
Support & Bugs
Support for themes is provided through the support forums. Registration is required but brings with it several advantages (namely plugin newsletters and personal bug tracking). Questions asked anywhere else on this site may not be answered and may even be deleted.
All bug reports should be submitted into the issue tracker. You do not need to register to submit bug reports but if you do then you'll be able to receive email notifications once they have been fixed.

I need to make a correction: the bug happen only if I enable the left sidebar with widget. All ok if either disable the left sidebar OR the widget.
Any suggestion? I can try to solve it by myself if you can point me where (i.e. the script) it could be the error...

I love this theme, thank you.
One problem I have for some reason, since I required people to log in to make comments, all the comments appear with (blog author) and they all appear with the same background. See the latest:

Originally this was not the case, and I think I had comments open to anyone.

I don't see the "alt" class in the stylesheet. Can you suggest what might be going on here?
Thank you again for your theme

Bey: The header element is set to a height of 8em, but it looks like the contents are too big to fit and so they spilling out

Hi I am using this great theme giraffe and modified it a bit but I can't understand why it seems to be ok in IE (except the footer area) while in Firefox the 3 sections are seperated from eachother (header page & footer). What am I missing?
