Those of you who visit Romance Tracker to read about romantic ideas with any regularity (come on, there must be a few of you out there!) may have noticed that I’ve been tinkering with this site’s theme a lot over the past week, and I think I’ve pretty much gotten it to a point where I’m digging it. The previous Cutline theme that I had been using worked great for the first few months of the blog, while I was focusing on SEO and linkbacks, but it was a little too simple and vanilla. I still suggest Cutline for any wordpress users who want a simple, clean, search-engine-friendly theme for their blog!

The new Romance Tracker look is basically a hacked-to-hell version of this Valentine theme that I came across. It’s an attractive, simple, search-engine-friendly theme that the author did a great job on, but it was a little too “pink and mushy.” This blog is about romance, but all of the hearts and flowers are a bit too much even for me! So I hacked the code a bit, did a switcheroo on some colors, created my own banner, and you’re looking at the finished product.

I’m sure I’ll make other small changes to the theme in coming months (I have a hard time leaving things as they are), but I’m going to try to leave Romance Tracker basically how it is for a while as I focus on gaining regular visitors.

So, what do you think? Like the new Romance Tracker design? Leave a comment and let me know!
