And I have some ideas as to how to make a better theme, involving Flash, images, hacks and ... .
So, continuing the "Do it Yourself" and "Be curious" approach of this blog, I decided to read my blog's template code and attempt to make heads or tails of it and make it awesome and grouunnnd breaakinggg!
So, here link it is! [That's my current ugly disgusting theme I have, thought it's the new revolutionary one? Got ya! No?]
I recommend opening the file in Notepad++
So, Line 1 says:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?
>
OK, so far so good. I understand what the attributes are saying, but what's the
<? ?
>
tag does? *A Google search later*OK, So, The website w3schools.com is apparently the place to learn everything webdesign related.
Hmmm... Still can't find what the
<? ?
>
tag means...OK, Let's see where searching "understanding blogger templates" goes.
*searches it* Hmm, interesting stuff!
I'm gonna see what this one and this one says.
Hmm, So all the CSS goes in the head and all the widgets go into the body...
What a freaky mixed up code...
What if I want a widget to dissapear in a specific page?...
Hmm, The code is fairly nice to read and well documented... Thought I can't do anything with it until I learn HTML and CSS...
OK, On to a new category then!
