E.Webscapes Blog Design Studio - custom designs for Wordpress, Movable Type, Typepad, Expression Engine and more!

We recently completed the new design for Weblog Bahamas, a Typepad powered blog by Rick Lowe, on topics related to the Bahamas, written by multiple Bahamian authors. Rick wanted a very simple, conservative design in a three column layout, as well as continue ability to utilize the very handy Typepad Widgets so he does not have to worry about tinkering with the template code in order to change the arrangments and elements in his sidebars…

Rick wanted simple with a design that included elements of paper and pen - to signify writing. We provided him with just that, in a soothing color scheme of blues, cream and greens. After trading a few ideas back and forth - Rick had this to say when he saw the final graphic mock up of his design:

Wow We!
I’m impressed.
Let’s roll!

With that, We proceeded to develop Ricks custom Typepad blog design utilizing the Custom CSS feature available to Typepad users. This enables Rick to continue using Typepad Widgets, uninterrupted - which is great, since he didn’t want to worry about learning the code require to tweak his own templates.
