Finally finished the Tumblr theme that I was working on. Am especially pleased about this one ‘cause I didn’t end up changing my mind about it halfway through finishing the theme. Surprising? Yeah, I know.
Did I talk about this before? I don’t really remember but, see, after finishing Mystic Summer and Weiss Zima, I was already thinking about the next Tumblr theme that I wanted to make. I was also thinking about changing the current theme on my Tumblr blogs.Â
I’ve been using the Effector theme by Pixel Union, parts of which I’ve customized/modified to my liking, but I thought that it was time for a change since I’ve been using that theme for what felt like forever already.
So, I thought about having a full width theme with all the information that would have been located on the sidebar being placed on the header in a collapsing format. They would be placed a bit below the blog title in the form of icons. When you click on an icon, a box with the info in question shows up. So, for example, if you click on the About icon, you will see the blog description and avatar.
I was sort-of halfway through making that particular theme already when I had another idea. This time, I wanted a theme with an off-canvas sidebar. The burger menu icon will be in a fixed position so it will always remain visible even if you scroll down the page. When you click on this icon, the sidebar will show up. Click on the icon again and the open sidebar will close. Nice, right?
So I began working on this theme, setting aside the first one that I was working on. But, halfway through this theme, I had yet another idea. This time, I wanted a theme with a visible sidebar. But I didn’t want it to be like the sidebars on the Effector theme, Mystic Summer, Weiss Zima and all the other themes with this kind of sidebar.
I wanted a sidebar that was in a fixed position format. However, if there’s too much information on the sidebar, I wanted a scroll bar to show up. This scroll bar should only move the sidebar and not the main content of the blog. So there should be another scroll bar and this one would be for the main blog content.
So I set aside the other 2 themes to work on this one. I intended to finish those 2 later on when I was through with this one. I finally actually finished this one and, so far, I haven’t gotten new ideas yet. Well, okay, to be more precise, I did get a few ideas but, you know, it didn’t stop me from continuing to work on this theme. I just listed the new ideas down and decided that I’ll work on them later on.
The newly-finished theme is known as Rustelia. Will talk about it more later on. But, now that I’m done with the Rustelia Tumblr theme, I can now continue working on the other 2 themes that I set aside to work on this one. Hopefully, I can finish them both soon.

Mystic Summer’s been approved by Tumblr Themes. You can now install it from the Theme Garden here: https://www.tumblr.com/theme/39915 . The demo blog is here: http://mystic-summer.tumblr.com/ . Aside from sample posts and sample reblogged posts, it’s also got a bunch of tutorials.Â
Mystic Summer’s free, responsive and mobile-friendly. It’s got an accordion sidebar and a modal search box as well as a fixed navbar and a 3-column footer. It’s got loads of customization options so you can change stuff like the colors and fonts. You can choose to hide or show stuff too depending on your preferences. For example, you can move the sidebar to the right or left or you can just hide it if you don’t want to display it.Â
Mystic Summer’s got fixed floating social media sharing buttons too (Google+, Pinterest, Facebook, and Twitter) as well as the Tumblr like and reblog buttons. Well, there’s a lot more to this theme than that so feel free to check it out, yeah? And if you have any questions, need any help, have feedback and comments, want to share your thoughts and opinions, etc, then please feel free to contact me.
Am currently working on another Tumblr theme now. It’s got an off-canvas and toggleable sidebar. Still not yet done with it though. Still have lots more stuff to add to it. Have added all sorts of options so far like being able to change the styles of the headings (you know like make it bold, underline, italic, or normal) as well as being able to choose and set the font family and font size.
There’s also another theme that I’m working on. It’s a full-width theme with no sidebar but it’s got a header which contains all the info that would have gone in the sidebar. This one’s got a lot and I mean a lot of color options. It’s like a rainbow theme although the main color scheme is supposed to be green.
Dunno which one I’l finish soon but looking forward to finishing both themes so I can start working on creating even more themes. LOL :-).
