Themes – A personal journey
684 days agoMy site has gone through a lot of them changes over it’s history. Even though one of the bloggers that I admire most (at least before he went off the deep end) disagrees with theme changes, I feel that creating and changing my themes has allowed me to flesh out my ideas around aesthetics as well as my sense of self and personal style. I started university believing that I had no artistic talent whatsoever and have slowly come to realize that I just never spent any time developing it. I treat my theme as a personal journey, it showcases my knowledge, ability and feelings at a given point in time and allows me to show everyone in a visual way when those things change by updating my theme.
So although I’ve lost a few of the steps along the way, here is a subset of the themes I’ve hacked along the way…
- Current theme
- Previous theme… I put a lot of effort into this one.
- My first attempt at playing with “home pages”
- I used this header on several themes.



Now you’re going to make me go through my themes, eh?
It’s great to see your personal journey through the themes. I now need to focus on thinking about what I’ll do with Hummingbird604.com – suggestions welcome! I’ll end up following your lead with TwentyTen, as you suggested. But personalizing it to me.
