Okay, that is how the fun began! .

First, I wanted to use the layout I used back in 2004. Second, I wanted to make it a WordPress theme.

After extensive work with Photoshop, theme was okay to proceed to CSS design level. I found Guides and Slice Tools really useful in Photoshop. After playing with CSS a bit, the theme was ready to upload. There are few glitches here and there, but decided to deal with them later. The theme was tested in Firefox, Chrome and IE.

[1] and [2] tutorials made my life so easy. However, M$ Internet Exploder gave me enough trouble. Specially with the Sidebar. If I make a small change in a width of a DIV tag, the sidebar goes and sits right at the bottom of the screen.

[1] A CSS Layout with 2 columns
[2] So you want to create WordPress themes huh?
