Huddson,
When I dropped by your blog, I was instantly drawn to this post – most likely by the headline. It seems like I’m not the only one to have ‘wasted’ countless hours trying to find the perfect wordpress theme for my blog. The rest of your post was spot on as well.

Hi Huddson,

I have spent more time on choosing blog themes than I want to admit to. In fact I absolutely AGONISED over the design for my current blog.

But, that said, I would NEVER attempt to create a theme myself. I would have to spend about six months on learning to code and the same again on graphic design – and that’s a conservative estimate. Imagine spending a YEAR on getting your blog setup before you can even think about starting to write in it!

No thanks – these days if I want a new theme I’ll just see what Brian Gardner’s got on the go at Studiopress, pick the theme I like most and be done with it.

Hey Hudson,

How’s it going in Sunny QLD! I have wasted a lot of time and also learnt the amazing benefits of outsourcing. I use a couple of sites to outsource now including: GetAFreelancer, eLance, and RentaCoder.

The learning curve for a lot of us in Alex Jeffreys course has been huge, so just keep going and you’ll be fine.

Cheers
Mel

I just love it Dean
Not only did I contend with the school system with the “do it yourself and don’t copy” theme. It was embedded in me from my family.

Growing up poor, we “had” to do it ourselves. Grow your own food, preserve your food for the winter, build your own house, build your own furniture in some cases.

In my family if you didn’t or couldn’t do it yourself you weren’t worth your salt as my folks used to say. Plus I had an older brother that could do dang near anything which was another challenge for me.

And now that you point it out, thus far with Alex I have done everything myself. I too spent way too many hours trying to get my blog figured out.
I have to admit, however, I did ask for help in the forum. Maybe I am venturing out of my shell. Wish me luck

See you around.

Nice post–like how you have the high level view here about not getting bogged down in the “small stuff” like templates and plug-ins–just staying focused on the big picture–great advice!

Hey Huddson

Good post my friend, just shows the importance of planning and sticking to a working plan

It’s SO easy to get stuck into doing something, but once you do it you soon realise how little else you got done eh !!

Must admit I do it myself sometimes, have to be a lot more strict with myself now though

Speak soon
