It takes ages for Chris Pearson to update his blog, but when he does, rest assured he has some goodies to share. I logged in today and was pleasantly surprised that Chris has developed a new theme and again, it is FREE for public download.
When it comes to WordPress Themes by Chris Pearson, you can be expect it to be 100% validated, Search Engine Optimised to the hilt and easily configurable as in all his previous themes. Then too, for all the themes that he has released, he makes sure there is a dedicated page of instructions on how to get the most out of the Theme. Here it is. Chris Pearson’s latest Theme:
The 3 Column Neoclassical Theme for WordPress.

Amri,
Copy ans paste these codes anywhere into your custom css file.
—————————————————
body.custom {
background: #44443f;
}
.custom #container {
margin-top: 2em;
margin-bottom: 2em;
padding: 0.3em;
background: #33332f;
border: 0.4em solid #3e3e3a;
}
.custom #page {
background: #fff;
}
——————————————————————-
The #44443f is the color code for the main background. Change it to whatever you like.
The #33332f is the content background (I don’t think you want to change that)
The #3e3e3a is the border for the content area. If you don’t want to show the border make it the same color as the container or the background.
The #fff is the color of your page or your post.
Note:
If you change your background color of your blog, it is going to be quite odd because the Video and the Ad banner on your right sidebar has exceeded the size of the sidebar.
If you want a wider sidebar, you can try using my 2 Column Neoclassical Theme. But it has only 2 columns so it might not be enough for all your sidebar stuffs.
