Okay, ending a Sabbatical year
(rather wide, that is: uploaded my last Blogger Post Thursday, August 17, 2006)
here's A Second Beginning.
Just for fun, mind you, for I am certainly
not going to reopen The Workshop.
After two annoying experiences where some bugger (or some Spider or Robot - in that case: written by that same shithead) snatched away my Blogger domain I was so pissed I threw away the whole bloody lot!
Literally everything.
Ultimately I even discharged myself as a Blogger Forum Moderator.
End of an era!
But hey, since I started playing with
WordPress Themes again ... I might as well continue twiddling with Blogger layouts too... merely as a pleasant side issue.
Two days ago I was - it unexpectedly popped into my head, not a hunch why
* - wondering how easy or hard it would be to create a Blogger Template using a CSS Framework like
BlueprintCSS (I'm using BlueprintCSS for
WordPress and
bbPress). So far the trigger.
That proved to be a Piece Of Cake: you can create fresh templates (save Typography and Styling, of course) with
any (few or many) number of columns ... literally ...
in minutes.
Another WordPress Theme example can be viewed by clicking the picture above, showing the Index page of the TB20090113 Tatter. This Blogger Layout here is a - sort of - translation from that TB20090113 WordPress Theme. It's a Draft ... .
Building the current WordPress Theme (
TB20090204) I made a special effort to create an all-browser-compatible (certainly
backward compatible) gang. Okay!
In case of the WP TB20090113 and this Blogger Template the CSS3 feature
Border-Radius is implemented ... for CSS defined Rounded Corners. That is
if you are browsing with Firefox, Safari or Chrome. For these nice looking rounded corners are
not showing in MIE and Opera! Nah, that's okay too. This
is a draft, as I mentioned.

Not true: I made this Blogger Template right after this guy left a comment on my Wordpress site, asking me whether that template is only for WP or for Blogger too.
