I didn’t post any proper update about the revamp for this blog for some time , the last post I have is about v9 during 2008, I did try to have a major upgrade end of last year but it doesn’t seem like a success.After preparation of few week , today I would like to announce I’m Knight v12 is ready.

The basic structure of this new design is using Woo Theme‘s Canvas Theme , I have created a child them base on Canvas and putting my limited design idea to create some thing different , If you been visit this blog for the past few week , you might even see the blue theme Canvas on trial but in the end I still back to white background to adopt the minimalist design with lesser color used.

So what are the changes ?

Google Font API

Check out the header that I actually using the Google Font API to style the blog title , you can check out the font preview before apply on your own blog.

CSS 3

There are few CSS 3 trick that I m using on this new design, example like rounded corner , text shadow and box shadow.

Sharing

For encourage reader to share the content , instead of having all the sharing link at the end of content, I m trying the floating share bar plugin.

Comment

Interaction is one of the major thing for a blog , I have added comment luv and subscribe to comment to improve user experience for commenter, I’ m still wondering shall I remove the No Follow for comment.

Let me know if you have any suggestion for this new theme ? I m welcome any feedback.

Finally i did the modification that i want , there are certain part still need to finalize but this should be my new blog theme. This is a make over yichi’s famous theme – Resurrection

I did select quite a number of themes to test locally, this is one of theme that attract my eye ball, when looking for a new theme to replace my currently one, especially the twitter bird. i though i won’t be changing a lot of thing since i m quite happy with the original design, but at the end i try with my setting , test with my different plugins and trying to make different effect on my blog.

Goodbye the old mac design look theme

this is what i remix, from Resurrection to Im Knight v8 – which you currently looking at.

of course only theme upgrade is not enough, at the same time i did quite a few upgrade on all the plugins, remove unwanted plugins , put in some recommended plugins. I m happy for this release.
