i face palm when i look at your design.

come on la.

your color scheme already phailed.
menu nav ugly.

link so hard to notice. you put pink on red?

post title size not same size in single.php and index/home.php

text padding no good.

comment form is ugly. how come text area so far away form input.

your rainbow can easily done with background top right.

make the code shorter and semantic.

not only for you to understand. but for buyer to customize and use it.

learn more about design hierarchy, color scheme, grid, type

What about this theme:
http://manmohanjit.com/

I'm still working on it, currently I use it as my default theme but I'll be putting it up for sale later on. Do you think it has a chance?

Ajax comments, drop down menu support, WordPress custom menu's support and many more.

no, seriously. @kailoon sure no liking it.

they prefer heavy graphic, colorful layout.

3+ Letters? wtf with bright red and green suddenly come out.

link color not consistent.

CODE

body {

}
 body div#wrapper {
 
 }
  body div#wrapper div#header {
   
  }


why need to type more? like this simple cause it already id rclxub.gif

CODE

body {

}

#wrapper {
 
}

#header {
   
}



i know you want to try minimalist concept.
so keep it simple. you go learn from @bat.

you play with many border style(dashed, dotted, solid). no gooding.

.entry h3. this one i face palm. make it align left please. your UX got problem.

make it balance. padding. line height. margin.


@ <- go search these people at twitter.

1. Wait, I'm not following. What 3 letters and what bright red and green?

I prefer clean code, systematic code to make it easy for visitors to understand just in case if they find something they like, it'll be easy to locate the specific CSS code.

Whats wrong with the borders?

The h3 for the entry is to seperate the content, as if its another section. I made sure it aligned to the right so that it'll look more different compared to the post title.

At certain points I totally agree, but next time please don't use kopitiam styled language here, its not that easy to understand.

Thanks for the time.

1. comment form.

because id can only be one in html. no need to write more. class need if inherit.

border - consistency. dashed = ugly if donno use.

to make it different. play with font-size. h2 title big 40px. post h3 24px. no one read form right. make it left align.
