Impact2 WordPress Theme - Review
Angsuman Chakraborty
June 14th, 2006
I am very excited about the new theme we are building. Please, please, please take a look and shower it with your comments and feedback. Let us know how we can improve.
It is a css based three column theme designed from scratch (look Ma, no tables).
It is still a work in progress but I have enough to show and get your feedback and improve upon.
You can see the new theme in action at our test site.

There is a rendering error in Safari regarding the top-right search and subscribe fields. I can send a screenshot with highlighted areas if you want.
Also, from the aesthetically-pleasing-yet-complicated department, I would suggest turing the translator into a Flash animation so that the flag icons actually circle the globe and each one can rotate to the front when selected (and perhaps packaging it as Automatic Translator Plugin v3), and altering the gradient of the top and bottom border image files so that their colors flow evenly into the right and left borders.
Other than that, it looks like you have an excellent theme in the works!

Thanks for your excellent feedback. I am planning to do the rotating icons in Javascript.
Please do send me a screenshot on safari.
Thanks again,

Not a problem, the screenshot has been sent.
For those of you who design your own WordPress themes (and/or websites) and desire a certain level of cross-browser compatibility, you can monitor your site’s appearance in Safari with iCapture (a donation is strongly recommended, as it would be cheaper than buying a Mac).

Hi
I like it - I think the boxes at the bottom give the added advantage of opening a load of extra and current links.
Designing for an information site that has so much info is always hard. Take a look at bbc.co.uk for some fresh inspiration.
