RIMarkable Has A Fresh Coat Of Paint

by Robb Dunewood on November 3, 2008 · 11 comments

I finally got tired of looking at the 3-year old BlackBerrys in the old theme so I spent my weekend working on this.

I’ve still got some tweaking to do but everyone I’ve asked says that this theme right now looks better than what we used to have.

I hope you don’t think it sucks, or, at least thinks it sucks less than the last one.

The logo’s a bit dull (the font especially!), but the actual layout of the site is actually much more attractive. Great work!

Yeah I think the logo is a little lacking, but other than that I love the color scheme and site layout.

The new site looks great. 1000% better than what you had before. I like how you are displaying the featured posts in the middle.

This is one of the coolest Thesis mods that I’ve seen. This is a bit off topic, but, how did you get those featured thumbs into your left sidebar?

Still has a “2002″ feel. Improved over your previous “1997″ feel but I can tell you people certainly aren’t web designers. Keep on bloggin’.

Good job, looks pretty. Yeah, those old blackberrys didn’t give this site any justice at all.

Looking pretty good. The only thing I would suggest is that you put a picture of a BlackBerry in your mast next to your logo like in the last theme.

Just make sure that it is one of the newer devices…

Wow – harsh crowd :) this is a HUGE improvement over the old format! Easier on the eyes which means that I can focus on your articles which is WHY we are all here! Great job!
