To demonstrate this i’ll be using 3 very common problems that you have probably ran into while developing themes, all of them are about main posts loop, but as i said you can use it where ever you want!

First problem, making the latest post different style
Idea is to put a counter into the main WordPress loop and simply tell on what ID (post) you want to apply another (or different) class. Like we used for Andromeda Theme

Second problem, repeating blocks can’t fit wrapper width because of last padding
This is like the most typical thing, you can see it everywhere and if you’re not CSS expert (because it can be fixed with CSS) let’s apply style without padding to the latest horizontal block in the row, call it last (and of course you have to define it in CSS like .last { padding:0px; } or something.

So you see, similar thing here, just we’re checking if module is == 0, so you can have this in every row for 3 posts not just for the first one

Third problem, different box heights breaking the layout
Here’s the situation, you have posts sorted like in previous example, so horizontal boxes in multiple lines but when they are different heights they most often don’t go in right order, so what we’re about to do is to put some clear both after every line. We’ve used this in our Gemini Theme

Careful attention has been paid to whitespace and typography to ensure that the user can easily and efficiently obtain as much information as possible about your company/product without being overwhelmed or confused.

What we’re going to use is pure CSS solution, but you can use for example some JavaScript with a simple loop or something… Here’s the code and after that an explanation.

Yes, that’s all! Key element is span tag with same text which is positioned absolute and moved a bit. You can place it in any tag you want and also add links and everything like in example. This is tested on FF, IE6, IE7, IE8, Opera, Chrome and Safari.

So without further ado… As of right now, you can purchase any of our awesome Magazine Themes or Personal Themes for the unprecedented low price of $40 for single licenses and just $80 for a developer license. That’s half the original price and better than any previous offers here at Theme Galaxy.

1. Design Process

Each of our themes are designed from the ground up in Adobe Fireworks. We spend as much time designing each individual theme as we would if we were designing a custom web site for a client. There’s a great amount of attention to detail involved.

We also design every page, not just the homepage. This means that the same level of thought which went in to designing the homepage has gone into designing the entire theme. This results in a much more rounded product, which is consistently styled and functions intuitively.

As you may have noticed, several of our themes also come in a variety of colour schemes, or have the option to switch different design elements such as header graphics. Just that little something extra to make your theme a bit more personal, and a little different from the next one.

2. Features

As our themes are not designed and built to any brief, we try to create themes which will suit a range of different briefs at once. This has lead to the themes being categorised into Personal Themes, Business Themes, Magazine/News Themes and Portfolio Themes. What you will notice however is that a lot of our themes could fit in to one, two or all of these categories at once. We feel that is testimony to our attention to detail, and commitment to cram in as many features into our themes as we feel necessary for it’s targeted usage.

Whatever your sites purpose, we have a theme for you, and that theme will possess all of the features you require. And you know what, if you disagree then tell us, and there’s a good chance we will be able to add it for you upon purchase.

3. Coding

The quality of code is a huge part of what makes not just a good WordPress Theme, but a good web site. Rather than just port our designs into a generic WordPress setup, every single one of them is coded from the ground up into a fully functional xhtml/css template. This allows us to make the code as stable and accessible as possible.

The first thing we do of course is ensure that the html is valid, we then go through, checking to see if any bloat can be eliminated while adding comments to the html where it might be necessary.

Next we test the template in various browsers including Internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari on both Mac and PC platforms. This ensures that when it comes to integrate the design into a WordPress theme, we will have a high quality, accessible and standards compliant start point.

4. WordPress Integration

Speaking of WordPress integration… We take our template and begin adding the WordPress features to it, which runs in a similar vein to the previous process. Code is sorted, commented and optimised to be as lightweight as possible. We also strongly favour hard-coding many of our features, which means less plugins for you to configure with the theme, and less bloat in general. All of this comes together to perfect the product and give you a theme of the highest quality possible.

5. Support

Your Theme Galaxy experience doesn’t end upon downloading your new theme. Rather than leave you out-in-the-cold we’ve provided detailed documentation on how to install and configure each of our themes. So if there’s a feature which you don’t understand, or want to change, the chances are that you will be able to do so by quickly reading the corresponding literature. And if you still cant figure something out, try our support forum where we are ready to take your call! (We believe our support documentations and general theme quality must be very high, as the support forum is practically silent)!

So there you have it. 5 reasons that your next Premium WordPress Theme should come from our Galaxy.
