I’ve finally gotten around to coding my Minimal Blue layout into a full WordPress theme.

Hello, hello! In anticipation of Halloween, I’ve made a spooooooooky template for Wordpress, which is up for sale on Icklebug Designs. I’ve also added a little random image thing to the sidebar to showcase current pre-made templates that are available. I’ll hopefully find the energy to make some more, as despite having [...]
