BlogEngine.NET Theme of week 44/2008: PortraitPress

2. November 2008 08:03 by Henrik Stenbæk | 6 Comments

As voted by you. Here it is the theme of week 44's poll, PortraitPress is the winner. Original designed by Magnus Jepson for Wordpress

Interesting to se that nearly on one wants the Lemon Twist theme – that’s actually surprised me.

Theme highlights

Your able to change header photo:

Create a picture size of 187 x 172 pixel

Save it to \themes\portraitpress\images\

name it: "portrait.jpg"

Click yes to replace the existing portrait.jpg image

Refresh your browser with [ctrl]+[F5]

(by the way: say hallo to Celina, the youngest child in my current collection)

I will, but I can wait till you finish it. I love the fact that the theme shows like 8 posts on one page from left to right. Awesome little thing they got going there.

Another great theme :- )  The portrait image was sporadically rendering down and to the left in IE7 (mostly when running on my local machine and refreshing really quickly).  Screenshot here:

allben.net/.../..._IE7_with_missing_anchor_tag.png

The reason turned out to be super simple -- a missing closing tag on an anchor.  In site.master, there's this code:

<div id="rss-big">
    <a href="<%=Utils.FeedUrl %>" class="feed">
</div>

Adding the closing anchor tag fixed this sporadic rendering issue in IE7.

<div id="rss-big">
    <a href="<%=Utils.FeedUrl %>" class="feed"></a>
</div>

Thanks for the great theme, btw.
