The beauty of services like Tumblr and Posterous is how easy they make it for average joes like me to publish their tumble/v/pic/b/…log. I only recently created my own tumblelog and wanted to add a few items such as social networking links, different backgrounds etc. In researching my blog theme I decided to use the Letterhead theme by Bill Israel.
I love that theme but wanted to take it to the next level with additional customization. And so was born Just Right. Just Right offers the following additions.
A hybrid liquid-elastic layout to gracefully handle browser window resizing and font size modifications
Customizable background for the sidebar
Customizable image and text for an About section in the sidebar
Customizable icons, links, alt-text and tool-tips for
- 3 popular social networks: Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn
- Mailto, your blog’s RSS feed and your blog’s Archive
Customizable icon for the search button
If you do customize the icons be sure to provide any accreditation in the footer of the blog page via customizable text and link for the source of your icons. If you wish to use the default icons you need not take further action.
Customizable footer text or HTML
Ability to turn off the link to this help post.
All customization is available via the standard Customize drop-down menus offered.
Finally if you need to further customize your blog, simply click on the Customize > Theme > Use Custom HTML button.
You are also free to build upon this theme and create your own. Any accreditation if deemed worthy would be appreciated.
Enjoy!
