Since I have decided to open this blog back up and focus in on WordPress and Rails development related articles I wanted to overhaul the look and feel of it. After spending a bit of time online looking through some options I decided I needed to build it on a theme framework that had a strong community and starting point for a developer at my level.
I have been using the WooThemes framework: (WooThemes – Premium WordPress Templates) for about a year or so and have really grown to love it. However, at times the framework seems bloated and all of the backend GUI options seem cumbersome. This brought about my quest to find something different and I did in the form of the ThemeHybrid community.
After spending some time on their site, looking through the ref guides and parent theme options I decided to go with the Hybrid parent theme for this blog. I’m sure there will be a little learning curve to go along with it but so far I like it a lot.
