After almost nine years online, it was time to redesign Sweet Solutions and bring the site into the 21st century.
There was no question I would put the content into WordPress. I wanted to start blogging about web design and needed a CMS like WordPress that would allow for easy updating and maintenance.
The challenge was to come up with a layout that would not only be functional and have the design elements I wanted, but would also be attractive enough to make a positive, and professional, first impression.
Elegant Themes was the answer. Their themes for WordPress have a solid framework with all the design elements needed for a website. It was just a matter of deciding which elements I wanted to use, moving them around to best suit my needs, and customizing the look of the layout.
For Sweet Solutions I used the ET theme, “Lumin,” with a little help from “Deep Focus,” “ePhoto,” “eShop,” “Minimal” . . . oh, what’s the point of listing them all? I mixed and matched where and when I wanted, and what you see here is the final result.
NOTE: This site is still, and most probably will always be, in development, so you may find missing pages and content. I’ll finish as soon as I can; but, as always, client projects have priority.
