Kurt is the owner of Forum Blue And Gold, where he writes about thoughts, reflections, and the odd rant on the Los Angeles Lakers and the NBA (even the Clippers). It was really important that the site be easily read in mobile browsers, so we made that a top priority during the development of his design.
A nice, clean, modern look using the Laker’s colors throughout the design, Vivien designed a three column theme that would accommodate the ESPN toolbar above the site horizontal navigation, and also featured the site subscription area above the fold next to the search field. Kurt was pleased with the results and the feedback he’s received from his readers;
I also got a lot of emails from fellow bloggers and the people at ESPN saying they loved it. Thank you so much for all of this.
This was Kurt’s second visit to E.Webscapes for a custom design solution for his WordPress powered blog, as we also designed the very first iteration of his Laker’s fan blog back in 2004. Thanks, Kurt, for returning to E.Webscapes and giving us the privilege of updating your blog 5 years later!
