13MayOtaku senshi site? LAUNCHED!

If I posted the screenshots six hours ago… then I’ve spent six hours working on this. Not very long if I really think about it. This was my first Wordpress 2.5.1 theme and hopefully it came out alright. The site can be found here if you’re interested in looking at it.

All thanks to the Wordpress codex, most specifically; the_tags, the_tag_cloud, the_category, rewinding the loop, etcetera etcetera. Seeing as not much has changed since previous versions of Wordpress, I cleaned up the coding a bit but its not perfect. It functions, though, so that’s something, isn’t it? Most helpful plugins were; customizable post listings, breadcrumb NavXT, easy gravatars, related posts, wp-pagenavi, wp-grins, and  wp-notable.

It should be XHTML valid as well, except for non-existent pages and some services may be temporarily unavailable (and I’m checking up on that now).

I even got my smilies to work! :O Wow. Of course, I’m still missing a few expressions; sad, wink, lol, neutral, idea, and I want a ninja one.

I just noticed the theme looks a little like the JS theme, but it wasn’t supposed to. :( So don’t say I copied from it, even though I didn’t.

13MaySailormoon Wordpress Theme

I’m basically done with the layout for this non-existent site. Some things might change once I get started with the coding.

Header

The upper part of the screen. I changed the words on the logo to say “Soleil” using the font: Morpheus, because the O has a dot in the middle and it looks like the symbol for sun. The image of Eternal Sailor Moon is supposed to change depending on the page, but that’s for later when I start coding. Recent posts shows recent posts, of course, 4-5 depending. The gallery shows recent updates to the gallery, which is under “The Diary” link on the top menu. The images will actually be bigger on “the gallery” part, I don’t like the tiny images, therefore there will not be as many listed there (it looks crowded).

The content includes the posts and the sidebar. The sidebar lists off the parts and their summaries, I tried to be a little creative with this.

Footer

The footer includes the tag cloud and copyright info. I might change it from “tag cloud” to “categories” or somehow try to include both.

This is what a single post and page would look like. :S I hope I can make this work. I wanted to switch the sidebar around, it gets tiring looking at it in one place. A single page would have subpages listed on the side, instead of post info.

11MaySailor Moon; Wordpress smilies set

I’ll be going to Chicago this coming Saturday, the 17th(?). So I’ve been spending most of my time staying up all hours of the night and doing… stuff. This is the result of tonight’s party:

Characters in order, first line; Usagi Tsukino, Rei Hino, Minako Aino, Makoto Kino, Ami Mizuno. Second line; Chibi-Usa, Setsuna Meioh, Haruka Tenoh, Hotaru Tomoe, Michiru Kaioh. Last line; Mamoru Chiba, Yaten Kou, Motoki Furuhata, introducing Soleil, and her brother, Cyrus (he’s dead if you can’t see it properly).

Expressions in order; happy, shocked, love, tongue sticking out, sweatdrop, sigh, sleep, mad, dizzy, angel (innocent), cool, devil (evil), blush, confused, dead. Still missing; sad (others?).

And a black background version, though I’m not entirely sure since they look weird:

Btw, these aren’t available for download at the moment, if ever. I’m thinking of using them for my wanna-be otaku senshi site, if it ever gets off the ground. The only reason they’re not downloadble right now is because this version includes two of my original characters. I plan on adding more expressions and a few characters I’m missing; Seiya, Taiki, Kakyuu, some villains.

Sprite base and some of the expressions credit to Azha.
