WordPress Help!
Alrighty, so I have WordPress installed and all I really have to do is read up on it – ’cause I want my very own theme (design). Something that I create. I’ve seen some awesome sites that folks created and well, I want one too. This is my new home here… So I think I’ll do some research on WordPress.org through their inforamtion to see if there is something that catches my eye. Kinda, what’s the first thing to tackle.
I think I know my colors. There are four I’m identifying with… but not sure what it will look like. But even more than color, design etc. is how do I want it set up? It’s made me re-evaluate what I want from the site in itself.
I know ‘Chelle has WordPress. Any thoughts on Theme creation? Do you start with something and change it as you go?
I really just wanna have a regular steady theme that I might just improve as I go, but not change too much once I find what I like.
One specific question I have, that I found somewhere but cannot find again is… how to get my blog to be at www.zyriana.com, not have to choose www.zyriana.com/_wordpress. There’s gotta be a way… ?

I am not sure about the specifics on changing it to your main name. The support forums on wordpress.org have been amazing for me to find answers. I did a quick search this morning but I did not come up with a definite answer for it.
As for design. I learned by going through the classic designs (all open source so you can build up from them and it is all yours with the basic code already there).
http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/graphicalcss/ Totally helped me get started. There are a lot of tutorials out there.
It took me some time to learn css, and php but I am glad I did I have so much fun designing.
Feel free to email me or comment with any specific questions (warning being pregnant with a toddler running around as well I am a little slower these days!)
Good Luck and Have Fun with it!
