The Themeshaper WordPress Theme Tutorial:
Three Favorite Things offered –
- A Custom Menu, Flexible Custom Header Image, and a Custom Background (This appeals to me because I really like to have a tight visual experience.)
- Simple responsive styling, including a lightweight navigation menu for mobile devices (Anything that helps me be prepared for the multitude of devices available is good by me.)
- Valid and logical semantic markup structure than can be used to create ANY layout (I sometimes feel like my code is not as consistent and clean as it could be, so I think this could help me get better at that.)
I think a good tutorial, after watching the Coyier video would be just the thing to get me started and build confidence in theme building.
