Aeros - A professionally designed Wordpress Theme
Here it is: AEROS! The first really professionally designed Web 2.0 Theme of TheBuckmaker.com. As always I’d like to invite you to tell me anything you think about it and what you’d like to see for the upcoming versions of Aeros.
CURRENT VERSION: 2.0

I’d like to use this on a new site, but any images placed into the blog are as transparent as the frame. Having the BG show through the images is quite ugly, not to mention distracting.
Short of using transparent, tiled, 1px PNG images as backgrounds, what’s a way to fix this?
Hi Daniel,
yes, I thought of that and also had it this way in the beginning, but then decided to make all transparent. When using png images, you need some severe fixes to make them work in ie6. Personally, I like all being transparent, also the images.
A compromise would be to decrease the transparency of the content container yourself:
Look for
.storywrap {padding:10px 20px;
font-size:14px;
text-align:justify;
float:left;
width:505px;
margin-bottom:15px;
background:#fff;
opacity: 0.85;filter:alpha(opacity=85);zoom:1;
-moz-border-radius: 0 10px 10px 10px;
-webkit-border-radius: 0 10px 10px 10px;
overflow:hidden;
}
in the style.css file and change
“opacity: 0.85;filter:alpha(opacity=85);zoom:1;” to
“opacity: 0.9;filter:alpha(opacity=90);zoom:1;”
or higher - just as you like it
Hi Joe,
I downloaded you Aeros theme today and LOVE it.
I’ve added it to my site, slightly modified.
The one question I have is, in Firefox it looks beautiful with rounded corners and the background image is full screen.
In IE and Safari (haven’t tried Chrome or any other browser) the corners are not rounded and the background does not stretch to the bottom.
Are there any plans to fix that, or is there a change I can make to the template to fix this?
Thanks a lot for any info and FANTASTIC job on the theme!
Hi Steve,
thanks for the compliments
The reason for non-rounded corners in browsers other than Firefox is that css “border-radius” is an invention of Mozilla and the others do not yet support it.
Regarding the background stretch: I will fix that in the next version.
You can replace the background image in the /images directory of the theme, that’s the best way to fix it yourself.
One more fix for the next version: If you turn comments and pings off, there will be a nice “–” instead of the big “Co…mments off” in the field left of the post.
V 1.0.2 will be launched in the next 1-2 weeks! Please tell me anything you would like to see.
Hi Joe,
oh I like Aeros realy much (espacily couse I work currently on an design with round corners and transparent bachgrounds, too ;-))
two notes:
If you use -khtml-border-radius, you will see round corners in safari, chrome and konqueror, too.
The background image is undersized for bigger monitors (may be put it in the center)
have a nice day
Thanks Dirk, I’m gonna use that and the background image will be resized + faded out in the upcoming version
Very good! How can I relax the center column for a wpg photo album?

Hi RobtWms, just took a look at your site. If you want to expand the whole site, just increase width in style.css for
#rap (main container, from header to footer)
#header (so your header is as wide as #rap)
#content (story content + comment count + date)
#storywrap (story content)
and make sure that your new width fits in - just try & adapt
Hi Joe,
Just wanted to say thankyou for this really cool theme :). Thanks for commenting too - that’s something I didn’t expect. I’ve written a short post about it now as it’s such a refreshing change from a lot of the other themes out there. Good luck with future work on it.
Very beautiful layout! I didn’t use it because I need three column layout, this one is a bit narrow for me.
I dinked with it and it’s better. I’ll dink with it more later. What a wonderful theme. Thank You!!
I’m grateful for all your support and feedback - didn’t expect this! V 1.0.2 of Aeros will be available in the next days. Readers of TheBuckmaker.com can download it here sooner than at the WP Directory - as new versions also have to be approved there.
Hi Joe
I love your aeros theme and I am just getting started in wordpress.org. I am wondering whether it is possible to use my own banner instead of the plain black background?
Thanks. I do admire your work very much and love the opaque.
Bunny
Hi Joe
I wrote a little while ago about whether I could use my own banner. I have included my website - which is still under development but the banner there is what I would like to use or some version of that. At least the picture part on the left hand side. Looking forward to reading your comments.
Bunny
Thanks for the advice and thanks again for this amazing theme!
@ Bunny:
Of course you can use your custom header/banner. The image should be 775px wide and uploaded into the /images folder of the theme. Then define it as header (#header …) background:
replace
background:#000;
with
background:url(images/yourpic.jpg) no-repeat #000;
in the style.css file and erase the line in the #header section that starts with “opacity” if you don’t want the image to be transparent. This is where you can also change the height of the header: just add one line like
height:200px;
and change the value until it fits.
Very nice theme!!! One issue that I see is with the calendar widget. Ones are not displayed correctly. Maybe you can check on it for the next update.
EDIT: Ones are not displaying properly on the calendar in Firefox 3.
Aeros: A professionally designed Wordpress Theme…
Aeros a two columns, light, blue, green, transparent, rounded borders, valid xhtml and widget-ready theme….
Everything is displaying fine in firefox 3. At least for me it is. Maybe that other person has a problem on their computer. This is a beautiful theme.
I have probed this theme in my blog, but when I put youtube videos in google chrome, it appears in other side.
@static brain- I don’t think it’s my PC, because all other browsers display the ones properly. It might be my FF3 installation, though. Could you help me by giving me an idea of which version of FF you are running (ie. FF3.0, FF3.01) and any add-ons you have that might affect page displays?
@ Tim: I have a FF 3.0.1 Installation and here the “1″s in the calendar are OK
@ Marco: nice installation! For the youtube issue: Strange Chrome … never seen something like this before … maybe put the youtube into a container with parameters margin:0; padding:0; float:none …
@ Joe: I download the Aeros 1.0.2 and I’m getting the same thing. I’m guessing it’s something on my particular installation of FF 3.0.1. It’s good to know that it will display right FF.
Hi Tim, calendar is OK at your site.
Gorgeous summery theme now that autumn is kicking in. Nice work.
Great theme! I’ve been playing around with it for a while now, but one thing I don’t get is the little line in between the month and date in the datecom section. It only shows on the topmost post. How can I get rid of it?
Hi Jeff, this little line nearly drove me insane, but I found it
look for
.navlink, .navlink a {
margin:20px 48px 20px 0;
color:#808080;
padding:10px;
text-align:center;
font-size:10px;
border-top:1px solid #808080;
}
in the style.css file and erase the line “border-top:1px solid #808080″
I also changed it in the download file.
Great, thanks for the VERY quick answer!
If it is 3 columns and more width is perfect!
Great theme, I love it. One issue I noticed which the 1.0.2 release does not fix (AFAIK) is embedded YouTube videos. I am using the Viper’s Video Quick Links to embed a YT video. A still image of the video shows then when clicked takes the user to the YT website. I would prefer for the video itself to be played within my site. When I change my theme back to the default WP theme, this functionality works. Would love to see this addressed in a recent update. Nice work.
@ Tim I have FF 3.0 and no plugins that would affect display. I am not sure what is causing your issues. Others can see it okay in 3.01 and I can in 3.0 so hmm no idea what is causing the issue you are having.
@ Tim You know what? I just thought of something. Under tools and options are you using the default font of Times New Roman? Because if you aren’t it may not display fonts correctly in the browser.
@Ming: let’s see …
@Jason: I have checked it. Thanks for your feedback! This plugin seems to use the
<?php wp_footer(); ?>hook. Just include it in the footer.php file before the end of “body”. This should also solve the CHROME-Issue of Marco.
The download file also includes this fix now.
I think you are brilliant at what you do
One question, does the link that enables readers to share your blog come with the template? If not, how could i add it?
Hi Mara, if you mean the RSS FEED-Link, this is done by your wordpress installation. If you want to let your readers share your posts on social platforms, just use a plugin or add the buttons in the template yourself, for example by using a text widget. If you want to share TheBuckmaker.com with others
thanks! I just don’t add these buttons to this blog as it might get overloaded with blingblings …
I’ve searched the CSS file for how to make the posting text smaller. Can you point me in the right direction. Thanks
@Roswell:
p, li {
font: 13px ‘Arial’, Verdana, sans-serif;
line-height:17px;
}
I’m currently having some experience with this theme. The only thing I’m missing until now is an easy way to change the width of the whole thing. I’ve currently some content which needs a higher width that this theme offers.
Where do I have to change the values to expand the width with 150-200px?
Thanks for your great work
Sascha
Hi Sascha,
that’s quite easy as written above:
just increase width in style.css for
#rap (main container, from header to footer)
#header (so your header is as wide as #rap)
#content (story content + comment count + date)
#storywrap (story content)
just try until you’ve found your perfect width
Hi,
This is a great theme. Thanks for the time and effort you are putting into this.
I’ve come up with an IE rendering problem with embedded Google maps in posts. The background seems to be “leaking” through in parts of the embedded map and appears as blocks of background. The map is fine in Firefox. To get the code that I’m embedding into the posts, go to http://maps.google.co.uk/ and then click on Link in the top right of the map. A drop down menu then appears with the code to embed into the post.
In reply to Jason and his Youtube problem, I’m using the “Easy Tube” plugin and so far, this seems to be working fine in the theme.
Thanks
Andy
Hi,
I really like this theme, but there are two things I’d need to either change or fix.
1. I’d want to use my own background image. How do I change it?
2. I’m embedding YouTube videos on my blog. When I use other themes, they show up on the page. But when I try to activate Aeros, the placeholder normally seen is just a blank space. I can click on that area and the video will then play and appear. But until I do, it’s just a big blank space. How do you fix this?
Thanks in advance.
Randy
Hi RandB,
1. this is described in the readme file and the templates
2. try downloading the latest version, normally youtube videos work as they should
Really like your theme Joe. It’s excellent. Been playing with the widths a bit and I love how you’ve designed the CSS stylesheet so that it can be easily edited. Fair play to you!
Just wondering, would you know what the optimum configuration would be such that the wpg2 plugin will display properly on my site? I’ve made the #rap 100% and the sidebar 14%, with header 100% also. Seems I’m running into trouble because of the date and commy widths/dimensions.
Any tips would be brilliant.
Regards,
Mick
Hi Mick, thanks for your nice words. Just played around a bit at your site - virtually of course by using a FF developer plugin
- fix storywrap, datecomrap and content with by using px instead of % and it should be ok - for example content 900px, storywrap 820px, datecomrap 35px width - you’ll need to try until it fits. Of course you could also use the %s, but that’ gonna get tricky 
Thought as much. Was hoping to use percentages for backward compatibility with uses of 800×600 and the like but I guess they’ll have to scroll
Got it working on Friday with fixed px values but I thought I’d ask you your opinion on the percentage method. No worries at all anyway, thanks for the speed response. Keep up the good work!
I think there may be an issue with fix px widths or some such in the actual wpg2 plugin anyway
Off to gallery forums with me to see if anyone’s got a work around for this.
Joe,
Let me add to the chorus of kudos for this theme. I’ve implemented it on two different sites.
Quick question…
On the home page, I want only summaries of my articles, along with a link to the permalink where folks can read the whole article and leave comments.
It seems your code is a little different from what I’ve seen in other blogs, and since I’m not a codewriter, I don’t want to screw anything up by trying to retrofit the code language I’ve used in other themes to get this to work the way I’d like. I know this is commonly done, but I’m still new to this stuff.
How do I make this change in Aeros?
Thanks in advance.
Randy
Beautiful! Thanks for this theme.
@RandB: open index.php and replace the_content with the_excerpt
Hi!!
Thanks for great a theme.
I have one problem though. I was putting up some pages when I noticed that every page got a double on the top off the page. its ok in other themes if I switch, but when I switch back the doubles comes back?? How could this happen. It worked fine in the begining
Hi Stalle, it would be helpful to know some details and your URL. Did you already post? This issue is only seen if you don’t have any posts
Man.. this is just great.. I can see this inspiring all my next design work. This is a kind of thing which will have a ripple effect on the web and on the kind of designs people will come up. I haven’t yet gotten around to customizing it yet. But this is what I will do over this long weekend. Good work mate!
Joe,
FWIW, i’ve embedded YouTube videos into some of the pages on my blog with Aeros. Sure enough, the embedded video players show up just fine.
But when I scroll the page, the player goes blank. This happens on my MacBook Pro when I’m using Firefox.
The players remain visible when scrolling if I’m on my Windows computer (XP Pro) using MS Internet Explorer and when I’m on my MacBook Pro using Safari. But the players disappear when the page is scrolled in Firefox on my Mac (I don’t have Firefox installed on my Windows PC). It also works fine in Netscape on my Windows PC. It seems Firefox on Mac seems to be the only browser I use that has this problem. Only thing is, I use Firefox to manipulate my WordPress blog.
Just thought you’d want to know.
Randy
Great theme for my aumuaamata.com site and I want to use your Aerodrome on my http://pagopago.com/blog1 site but I cannot for the life of me get comments to work in either theme. Comments work fine in all other themes so it doesn’t seem to be the WordPress setup.
HELP
Hi Joe,
i read through all of the comments so that i would not waste your time. but i have not been able to fix the problem. i am having somewhat the same problem as RandB above. i am using a mac with both firefox and safari and have problems in both. all of the flash videos appear fine, but when you go to scroll, the videos almost disappear and become white. how can i fix this?
thanks in advance, you definitely have the best theme out there!!!
matt
ps. i am using version v1.0.4
@RandB, Matt: try deleting the line “opacity:…” in the #storywrap part of style.css to remove opacity of the content container - opacity may cause problems with some browsers, although it works fine on the major ones.
@John Newton: Try redownloading the Theme - maybe something got broke in your installation, this issue seems to be unique
Hi… great theme.
I am having the same issue as Stalle.
When I create a page, it puts two tabs for that page in the header. When I switch to another theme, I only have one. The duplicate tabs have the same link to them.
You can see them on the site…
Thanks again!
ah - never mind… i need to read the whole comment. Need to put posts in.
Sorry.
the deletion of the ‘opacity’ line in the .storywrap section seemed to resolve the problem in all the browsers and on all the computers I have to test it on. Thanks, Joe. Great theme!
hello…
can you change the links that the tabs at the top header are pointing to? By default, they are pointing at new pages that are created, but I want them to point at the category URLs (like /?cat=3) so when you click that tab, it auto sorts by the category id #.
Any help on this great theme is appreciated !
Hi joe,
a very nice theme!! thank you for that!
I have one question. How can I do the links in posts not so big? They are almost the same as the article title..
I hope you understand me.. pls answer here in your blog, I like it
Thanks in advance!
@Stu: this is basic html - insert the category link in the header “headmenu”, if you don’t know how that works pls look it up in a html or css directory
@Leo: change “font-size” in “p, li” and “storywrap” in style.css
excelente tema, recomendado
Hi Joe — I think your theme is fantastic. I’m trying to use the ‘Highlight Author Comments’ plug-in (http://rmarsh.com/plugins/highlight-comments/) but can’t figure out how to change the background of the whole comment box. If you use ‘e.g. background-color: #abcdef;’ it only changes the colour of the line in which the text itself is printed. Are you able to help?
Hola!
Lo primero de todo, muy buen tema. Me encanta.
Queria saber si se podria añadir al tema, una nueva columna como la derecha(sidebar), que se pondria a la izquierda, quedando en el centro, las entradas publicadas.
Gracias!
Hi, I love your theme.
I have a problem though with the comments. When I view a post the comments box does not appear? The word comments is there, but there is nothing underneath of it.
I would love to keep this theme but I have to correct this bug
Hi and thanks a lot for this great theme !
I just have 2 problems with the menu above the header.
1- When I create child pages, the name of these pages appear horizontally to the left of the name of the parent page, as if they were regular pages, instead of appearing vertically below the parent page.
2- The order of the pages in the menu doesn’t follow the numbers I gave them.
Do you have an idea to solve these issues ?
Thank you very much.
I figured out he problem for the comment above. I upgraded my wordpress account. I am reaallly happy.:)
Hi. Just wanted to say thanks for putting together such a rad theme. I really like the tabs and transparency! Nice work!
(Sorry for my English)
I am making some testing with your theme (i have changed the default resolution (now 1024x 768), some minor changes (fonts size) and now your theme randomize the background on every page…
I only have one question… How can i change the opacity of the images (and only the images), i have tried assigning one opacity value to each one image… but it doesnt work (as the container have 90% opacitty, the image has this opacity…) dont know how to solve this question…
@Fco Javier: that doesn’t work in CSS - you can only remove opacity of the container
So we will await until CSS 4.0 or 5.0….
Hi,
Great theme but just one slight problem. The magnifying glass has disappeared from next to the Search box. Any ideas on how to get it back?
I turned the background to all white and now some widget text is not showing up. How do I fix that?
I have the same problem with the magnifying glass image not showing up?
Love the theme!!
The magnifying glass should work in V 1.0.4. If you still have troubles, look for
<input type=”image” src=”/wp-content/themes/aeros/images/lens.png” title=”search” alt=”S” style=”margin:0 0 -5px 3px;” />
in sidebar.php and try to adapt the image path.
That did it!
It’s just missing /aeros.1.0.4/ from the path
Hello
Please could you tell me how can i make the background image(default.jpg) a link?, i have played with the code but could not find the way!, if possible look at my site and you may see why i need that.
Thank you
Romero
@Romero: never tried this, sorry
very good theme
Nice template I love it !
Just a request … on my WPblog i have same main pages and a lot of child pages.
It’s possible create an drop down menus for child page clicking on the main page instead to show all the child pages orizontally on the hearder ?
Thanks for your support !
sweet theme
@Hawkeye: for sure this is possible, but yet I didn’t have time to do that - if anyone improves the child/parent page navigation, you’d do me a big favor
I’ve been wanting to learn how to create that transparent effect that this theme uses. I can’t wait to get into the code and really learn how to set it up. Thanks for the awesome theme!
Great work !!!
Great Work !
Great Support!
Thanks Again !!!
Very very nice work.
Very nice theme.
Thanks for your efforts.
Chris..
Very beautiful layout,I shall use it for my blog.
There appears to be an issue with the clipping of text in storywrap when viewed under Firefox. Any idea how to fix it? The clipping shows up on the Aeros preview on your site as well.
Great Job and I really appreciate your feedback comments, you had my issues resolved before I even asked them. Keep up the great job
Love this theme. Always looking for something as serene. thanks.
how do i put in a title or key words so that my web site picks up on a Google search?
Very helpful information on how to setup a blog. I was looking for a new theme and this is perfect Thanks!
CW - http://www.loanofficermarketinglab.com/blog
joe,
your the shit! how do you add extra colums like you have on this page? after the colum is added how do add text\pics\adds to it?
@ b: Look at the “aerodrome” theme plus “aer” - there you’ll find all information for setting up your custom theme with extra columns etc
hi joe, ı have tried almost 80 themes but ı think yours is the best, thanks for the theme!
ı have a question how can ı make it 3 coloums?
I have very strange problem I know its something with css but I cant find what anyway when I Embed audio files, text changes and you cant see anything. here example http://lankomas.lt/?p=781
ps. Great theme.
@arman: pls read through the comments
WOW! I love the transparent sidebar with the background… looks very professinal… i plan to use this theme on my upcoming blog.
Hey Joe-
Thanks for the great theme! I made several tweaks for personal taste (header, content width, etc), but also added support for the WP 2.5 [gallery] feature.
If you are interested in patches to support WP gallery, just let me know.
Hi there,
Quick questions. I loaded your theme and am just getting everything set up. I have added a second page called Contact Us but from the Home page the page name shows twice, as if I have a page 2 and 3 both named Contact Us. Any idea what may be causing this?
I have tried two other themes and the pages show correctly. Thanks.
Nevermind, I see this was already answered. Thanks for the great theme!!
Yeah, like everyone is saying, GREAT theme. I’m new to bloging, but still found it a okay to edit. One thing, it seems you have a space to the right of the header (where you have the rss logo), I removed the logo, but I can’t seem to be able to replace it. On my website (all other pages but the 2 Cents (blog) page), I have a scrolling image in that location…I would like to add this to the blog also. Can I do this, and how?
Thanks,
IBé
Hi there!
Just stopping to show you how I customized my site using your theme.
I hope you enjoy it.
About rounded borders problem. I heard about internet “exploder” 8 will open these kind of stuffs.
Hugs,
Tati
Hi IBé,
first look for
div id headerright
in Header.php and remove the line starting with a href…
second go to style.css and look for
#headerright a {
background:url(images/rss2.jpg) no-repeat -1px -64px #000;
width:60px;
height:59px;
cursor:pointer;
float:right;
margin:10px 20px 0 0;
}
#headerright a:hover {
background:url(images/rss2.jpg) no-repeat -1px -1px;
}
Remove #headerright a:hover completely and change #headerright a to #headerright (without ‘a’)
Then remove the line background and change width and height to your wished size + edit margin to give this container the wished position
Insert your marquee image into the header.php section div headerright and you should be done
hii there,
thanx for your nice theme.. i luv it
I’m new to theme design, especially for “Valid XHTML” in my site using your theme with my little modification. Could y help me to fix that error code..
many thanx..
I just installed your theme on one of my blogs with the help of the above posts - love it! Thanks!
Hi Steve,
thanks for the compliments
The reason for non-rounded corners in browsers other than Firefox is that css “border-radius” is an invention of Mozilla and the others do not yet support it.
Hi Steve,
thanks for the compliments ,cool
Hi Joe!!!! Thanks for the beautiful theme!! I know you dont want to answer css questions, but please, someone help with that: I want the categories menu to have the same font size and color, as the pages menu on the header, exactly the same look including the mouse over effect. I think that will make the visual perfect for me!!!!
Thank everybody!!
Heya!
First, I absolutely love your theme, it’s the best I can find! Second, I have a question. The link ‘home’ links to the homepage of the weblog, but my blog is part of a website. I tried changing stuff in the code to guide the link to ‘home’ instead of ‘wordpress home’, but that doesn’t seem to work! Do you know which line and which link to change?
Thanks a lot!
Jeroen
Hi, damn nice theme.
A quick question if I may. I have downloaded both Aeros and Aerodrome and I can’t seem to find the theme that allows those excellent looking tabs you have for categories and pages above and below the header.
I would like to use them on the Aeros theme. What am I missing?
Thanks.
Brian
@Brian: pls look at the third theme “aer”- there you’ll find the nice tabs
Hello Joe, a great theme, I really love it, but I have a problem with the smalls fonts in Firefox, you can see:
http://img515.imageshack.us/img515/9407/aerosproblemyg9.gif
In Explorer, Chrome, Safari, etc. works great and looks nice, but… I have that problem with Firefox
What Can I Do? Editing CSS Styles?
(I’m spanish, sorry for my english!)
I didn’t explan the font problem, sorry. Watch the day 1 and day 11 in Calendar, and the category list, must be “General” but the L is… lost?
Only happens in Firefox: http://img515.imageshack.us/img515/9407/aerosproblemyg9.gif
Nice theme and i will download this theme…
Nice theme, planning on using it in the near future
Hi,
theme Aeros is very well.
Please… I have one problem. When created new page (not Post). How created page who have same properties how Post page…. For example: more information with date on page
Thx
@Ludek: Just erase the “Page.php” file
wow..nice theme..i will download this theme..thnks b4
Really awesome theme.
Very nice Site!
Do you build personal websites for people?
@Tim: Yup, just contact me by email
I have the same problem as Daniel Rivero. Here’s an screen grab from Firefox 3.0.4 magnified 400%:
http://img67.imageshack.us/img67/9652/aerosproblempb1.png
That’s supposed to say “Horus Kol” but the “l” isn’t displaying correctly. It’s not just the sidebar either, the same problem is occurring on pretty much all the text.
Any ideas?
Apart from that, awesome theme and well done.
UPDATE - the problem with characters not displaying properly is a bug in Firefox when using CSS opacity mixed with ClearType on Windows systems. So this is completely not the designers fault!
See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=445087 and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=363861
Thanks for the information Erin!
On your aeros theme for wordpress how do you remove the search feaure in upper right of pagebar. I have a Google search feature which I use instead. I have not installed the aeros theme because of this reason but I will once this can be done. I get much revenue from my Google adsense search.
Thank You!
Michael
Loving the inspiration, got a bit of everything in this theme. good job.
@Michael: look for div id=”search” in sidebar.php and replace the content in the div container with your google search code
Hi,
Thank you for this wonderful theme for Wordpress. I just change to decentralize the frame on the side …
Best regards,
Love the theme but I gotta a problem… Its seems that in IE that the sidebar doesn’t show up on the home page but does show up on all the other pages. I haven’t changed any code but I did look at the index and page templates and I don’t see any difference that would cause this
Ok it also only shows the last three posts with no way to go to older posts but only in IE. it looks fine in firefox and safari. I don’t know how long its been like this, the only reason i found out its weird in IE is from a friend. the site is http://www.jonasstuder.com
@Jonas: I’ve never heard of that - anyone’s got that issue too in IE? Maybe its caused by a plugin - do other themes work?
Your theme is ace, but I’m struggling.
How do I keep my posts short with a “Read more” link so people know to click on them and leave comments? I’ve seen this done on other Aeros blogs but on mine I can write an essay and the full post goes up.
(am I being daft?)
yeah i tried a different theme and got the same results. It turns out there was a lenghty script in my third to latest post that was causing the problems. Works now. thanks for the help, sorry to have blamed your awesome theme
@Jonas: no prob, glad it works fine
@Ecoexplorer: use the “more” tag to cut the post where you want
Hi! I was reading that:
“Hi Steve,
thanks for the compliments
The reason for non-rounded corners in browsers other than Firefox is that css “border-radius” is an invention of Mozilla and the others do not yet support it.
Regarding the background stretch: I will fix that in the next version.
You can replace the background image in the /images directory of the theme, that’s the best way to fix it yourself.
One more fix for the next version: If you turn comments and pings off, there will be a nice “–” instead of the big “Co…mments off” in the field left of the post.
V 1.0.2 will be launched in the next 1-2 weeks! Please tell me anything you would like to see.”
So when do you publish this new version whats fixed this IE bug?
I really waiting this new version 
You’re very very kind.
Have a very merry Chrimbo x
