I’ve been saying to myself for a year or so now that I would develop my own WordPress theme to distribute on the web. Well, I recently have had my tonsels out which has meant lots of time has been spent either in bed, or lounging around the house (be it in pain but still). The other day I decided I finally started, and three days in its going really well!

The name of my first WordPress theme is (Nerd)Press, inspired by the TV show Chuck which I was watching at the time. So far I have working index and single-post pages, as well as working navigation, sidebar and footer sections, and finally a hugggee search bar panning 800+ pixels but looks very neat. The searchbar itself slides down using the ever popular jQuery which I am loving! I have also registered http://nerdpress.co.uk for when its ready to go public, at present there is only a centered logo up there but I plan on having an Email submission box up soon for anyone wanting to receive updates on my progress.

Thats about it for now, but here is a screenshot of what I have so far.
