Well, what can I say ? That you guys can do NOTHING wrong ? ok – You guys cant do NOTHING wrong
And once again : You have outdone yourselves . This theme just ROX ! Best WP theme I have seen after the much talked about ‘Agregado’ – now this is LUMINOUS ! Would you mind if we converted it for the Blogger Platform ? It seems that all the good things are made for Wordpress 
what about us Bloggies 
( Please say yes ? please ??
Outstanding Webtreats – simply outstanding. Now Ill go tweet ya & do yet another article on your never-ending creativity

Thank you Mia – you are too kind!!! And yes you can definitely convert it to Blogger – we’d be flattered!

Thank you Pamela , I’m so happy I can do cartwheels !:) [ but I will not attempt it
] It seems that this theme is making the rounds all over the internet & will soon be spreading like wildfire . I came across it on yet another blog @HERE ( although it was in Italian & I couldnt understand much ) I knew enough to assess that your Rockin theme is being talked about 
Thanks again for allowing the conversion . Once it is done I will give you the link to see the finished result .
Best wishes to all of you,

Realy great one theme! Congratulation e thanks to made it free for all.
Just a question: can you make it valid css?
http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/
XHTML 1.0 it’s ok..
thank you very much for your work!
Pamela
21. Sep, 2009
Glad you like it!
The two lines that do not validate are left in by choice.
-moz-outline-style:none is to remove the dotted outline on firefox links.
//top:130px; is for ie
You can remove them if you prefer.
filippo
21. Sep, 2009
Thank you! greats one!
But if i remove that lines, the themes works in the same mode? or it will be some problem?!
Pamela
21. Sep, 2009
Removing //top:130px on line 48 of style.css will make the search bar in ie look 2px off center.
You could add the following in header.php beneath the style.css call instead
<!–[if IE]>#header_searchbar{top:130px;}<![endif]–>
-moz-outline-style:none can be removed entirely – it is not important – just our preference.

Wow, really cool layout. I liked the most the Light blurs. Congratulations Webtreats!
It may look amazing too with some kind of thechnology look such as the track from a ciruit board behind it. Who knows in a update or for a new free version. ;0)
I’ve added a post into my blog spreading this amazing theme if you don’t mind.
Best wishes.

Looks great on your site! In the Wordpress version there is an custom option panel named “Translucence” that lets you chose the background from a dropdown menu. We don’t use Blogger so I can’t really say in your case. Perhaps ask the people who converted it, or manually edit the css.

Hi, thx for the amazing theme.
I have a request: the psd file of the title or the name of the font used for the title.. Can you help me?
Thanks a lots!
Pamela
05. Nov, 2009
You’re welcome F9 – it looks great on your site!
The font is Amerika Sans – you can download it here http://www.dafont.com/amerika-sans.font
We will eventually have a tutorial and full psd on tutorials.mysitemyway.com, but until then you can download the logo here: http://webtreats.mysitemyway.com/translucence-logo.psd

Thanks alot for this, definitely appreciated!

How can i adjust the width of the layout to be 85% of page width.
Pamela
07. Jan, 2010
Unfortunately it is not easy because of the background images. You would have to add many new divs and do a bunch of splicing. (I assume you mean 85% flexible layout)

Thanks for give this perfect theme
I have a question:
How can i find the “Custom Admin Options Panel”
in WordPress 2.9?
Pamela
07. Jan, 2010
Glad you like it!
It should show up in your menu – a link called “Translucence”.

hi there! awesome theme. just what i’d been looking for.
what do i need to do to get my custom logo to show up? I’ve disabled the default and my link is correct but no change. just the wordpress blog name and subtitle.
my logo may be too big. are there specific dimensions for that space?
thank you!
wkrp

nevermind. i answered my own question. thank you!

I really, really like this theme. Thanks for creating it
I’ve been a bit of a “theme slag” over the last few years – always changing for a new one – but I think this one might stick for a while

Thankyou for a very nice theme! I’m trying to understand the CSS-part of it to reduce the biiig 5 cm. padding under the main page/1st colomn white area, but cannot find out where to adjust it. Can you please help me out?
Greetings from Risør, Norway!
Pamela
12. Feb, 2010
If I understand correctly, you need to go to line #31 of style.css and change the “top” value of #body_block #primary to be more negative (ie. top:-65px)
#body_block #primary {
top:-45px;
}
Let me know if I’ve misunderstood.

I love this theme! Thank you for making this, I’m using it on my blog
. Is there somewhere I could find a .psd for the buttons though? 
Pamela
18. Feb, 2010
We do have one somewhere, and I will email it to you as soon as I find it!
chelling

Thank you Pamela for fast and informative answer! You learned me how to reduce the white space on top of the white main colomn, but not on the bottom where I’m, still are struggeling. If you look at http://www.risorsko.no/sko/ you will see that it’s a 5 cm. white space under the bottom photo. How can I get rid of this?
Pamela

For a quick fix you could change the positioning & height of the footer image, but you will probably want to edit the image as well
#inner_body_block_foot {
background:transparent url(images/content_bottom.png) no-repeat scroll left -60px;
height:30px;
}

I love the theme and have been using it for a few months now. The only problem I am running into is that the side navigation bar seems to be not wide enough for a lot of common widgets (subscribe here and my twitter come to mind) is there an easy way to expand this area so text on widgets will not wrap or go off of the navigation bar image?
Pamela
26. Feb, 2010
Unfortunately there is no quick fix for that, you would have to edit the background graphics and the code.

One of our visitors converted this theme for bloggers to use. Scroll up to the comments above and read the discussion on this subject. On Mia’s comments on Oct 7th, she posted the link for the blogger version of this theme.

Any tips on using a dark background with this theme?
(Also Ms. Pamela, when are those psds coming?
)
Pamela
07. Mar, 2010
Just emailed you the psd
As for a dark background, I’m not sure what you mean exactly? The wood skin is pretty dark?

Hello I have a question. Is there an easy way to make the top main menu align left instead of right?
And by the way thanks for the great theme:)
Pamela
07. Mar, 2010
Looks great on your site!
go to style.css (line 48)
and change right:0; to left:0; on the #main_navigation div as seen below:
#main_navigation {
left:0;
…
}

I had the template on my blog for a few months, and suddenly the background has disappeared, and the link above for the Blogger Template download no longer works. How can I fix it?
Pamela
10. Mar, 2010
Unfortunately we are not affiliated with the blogger version.
You are more than welcome to download our wordpress version, however, so you can get the background images.
