I do like the overhaul. It makes it easier to see many posts at once…

You know, you really are effectively SELLING this theme. If I didn’t have the technical know-how to build my own themes, I’d definitely go with Thesis.

@P@r@noid – On the first day when I activated Thesis my biggest aspect was how clear, simple, modern and easy-to-read the layout of my content was. Huge change from the theme I used before, even without editing anything.

It was only some days after that I slowly started “getting” how to customize it even further by looking around the members only forum section of Thesis site. And as Rowell Dionicio says you just use two different files to edit anything on your blog. And most times you can just simply copy/paste stuff from Thesis forum and make your blog look better instantly.

@P@r@noid

I’d say the biggest aspect, to me, are that changes to your sites design are all kept to just two files. Makes life less stressful

@Marian Sparks – Thanks for the nice comment and the link. You might want to subscribe to my RSS, I am just about to finalize the article on the ways I have customized my theme so you will get the answer to your question there.

Hi Marko!

I found your blog yesterday and wanted to compliment you. I’m using Thesis as well and didn’t realize that 1.4 has been realized yesterday until I saw your blog post about it. So I quickly upgraded from 1.3.3.

I love what you’ve done with theme and wanted to let you know that I referred to your site on the Thesis Forum today. Someone had asked about cool sites that have started using the “Features & Teasers”. I mentioned yours!

I’m going to steal, er, creatively emulate some of the ways you’ve adopted the theme. Still trying to figure out how to add the “promobox” for Thesis at the bottom of each post….

Nevertheless, thanks for writing about the updates so quickly AND for this wonderful post (with pictures). You’re pretty good with the “so what?”

Thanks!

Meanwhile, I’m still working on that one… which I’ve been slowly putting together in my freetime…soon I promise
