    I’m trying the latest free WordPress theme: The Rowling Theme.

    I’m using the a ‘Featured’ color Palette of mostly pinkish tones. (Or is that hues, as in ‘yuge’?)

    The footer has a site-copyright. I may add my ‘flynnspaws’ to the site title.

    I like how the front pages displays only the links, no excerpts either.

    There is only one sidebar and that’s okay.

    However, the post format is only standard and gallery and that’s boring.

    Below is my CSS stylesheet code:

    [code language=”css”].site-footer .attribution {display:none;}[/code]

    Well, I switched theme again to The Bushwick and tweaked the following CC stylesheet:

    [code language=”css”].site-header .site-title, .site-header .site-description {text-shadow: none; color:black; text-align:center;}[/code]

    Today went well. We attended ate breakfast, attended noontime mass of which my parents said the music was better, and did more chores, such as cooking and cleaning. Unfortunately, this is NOT my lifestyle but temporary as long as I’m still living with my elderly parents.

    As a result of my bitterness, Mom has sustained my personal ‘feedbacks’, which manifested as frozen pork biting her right inner ankle, angry pork chop from deep frying oil jumping upon and biting bare skin, my right elbow biting her inner right thigh after trying to get up from the floor from Mom curling my hair, etc.

    After dinner, the three of us changed and washed the table cloth, wiped down the heavy acrylic slab, and installed freshly ironed table cloth. We settled down around 2100 pm. Dad took his three hour mid-afternoon nap prior to dinner.

    Due to John Jr’s suggestion to combine his About, Contact and Archives pages into one, I tweaked my blog so more. Instead of deleting my precious pages, I streamlined the ‘Menu Structure’ to include the ‘front’ HOME page and the table of CONTENTS page, which I tweaked.

    Since the child-page shortcode already appears on the bottom of each parent page, the first ‘paragraph’ now shows links to my ‘flynnspaws’ category, my ‘personal’ tag’, and the randomized post. The only other change is replacing the page link to ‘blog subscription’ as ‘subscribe.wordpress.com’. The sitemap page is proper; while the recent posts stayed the same.

    After viewing John Jr’s annoying suggestions for my widgets, my widgets are reduced to eight – Search, Calendar, My Community, Recent Comments, Top Posts & Pages, Askimet Widget, Blog Stats, and Internet Defense League. Some of the other widgets are embedded as shortcodes into Static Pages.

    Furthermore, I’ve tweaked my CSS Stylesheet as follows:

    [code language=”css”].site-header {
    text-align: center;
    }

    #infinite-footer, .site footer {display:none; height:0px}

    body:after {
    content: "© Copyright 2001-2016 ‘FlynnsPaws’";
    }[/code]

    Moreover, I’ve further customized the colors to basic dark (464646) for the background and basic fuschia (ff00ff) for the font.

    Due to being bored again, below is my CSS stylesheet to a free WordPress.com theme – The Escutcheon Theme :

    [code language=”css”].site-header, body .post, body .page {background: black; padding:15px;}

    .site-header {text-align:center;}[/code]

    Okay, I’m trying the free WordPress.com theme – “P2″.

    Below is my CSS stylesheet as reference:

    [code language=”css”].format-link .entry-content p {background:#fff;}

    blockquote {background:inherit; border-left: 5px double red;}

    article.post {height: 150px; overflow:scroll;}[/code]

    Once again, I’m tweaking and switching my weblog. One thing I noticed is that the Sticky Posts gets in the way of the most recent blog post entries, which are in reverse chronological order.

    If it weren’t for the comment as found on http://atomic-temporary-205524931.wpcomstaging.com/2016/02/05/20160205-1937-aside/#comment-11199, I wouldn’t play around with the sticky post feature.

    So per the Support documentations, I found my suggestions! Below are the key items that describes how to handle these ‘sticky posts’:

    Generally, the Sticky option is only used for one or two posts on a blog. It should not be used for every post. Be sure to uncheck the Sticky option on that post to move it back to its place in chronological order.

    With that said, I’ve removed the extra ‘sticky posts’ and retained only one, which is supposed to be my very first post entry dated 02/14/2006. This post acts as a welcome page and a table of contents. Without a sticky post, my blog seemed ’empty’. I noticed this one sticky post, which has a featured image enabled, makes my most recent posts appealing in some way, at least to me.

    Behold! I’ve tweaked the CSS Stylesheet again. This time I switched back to the free Apostrophe theme. I made each ‘format post’ a different eye-candy color! Oh! That’s what I had in ‘mind’. For now, I’m not bored. Below is the updated CSS Stylesheet:

    [code language=”css”]body {
    text-align: inherit;
    }

    body:after {
    content: "© Copyright 2006-2016 – FlynnsPaws – All ‘rights’ reserved – Thank you";
    }

    body:after {
    color:red;
    font-size:x-small;
    }

    .site-header {
    background-color:inherit;
    }

    .site-title, .site-description {
    text-align: right;
    }

    .format-aside .apostrophe-nothumb, .entry-format.format-aside {background-color:#6666ff;}

    .format-audio .apostrophe-nothumb, .entry-format.format-audio {background-color:#e066ff;}

    .format-chat .apostrophe-nothumb, .entry-format.format-chat {background-color:#ffc266;}

    .format-gallery .apostrophe-nothumb, .entry-format.format-gallery {background-color:#ff6666;}

    .format-image .apostrophe-nothumb, .entry-format.format-image {background-color:#ff66ff;}

    .format-link .apostrophe-nothumb, .entry-format.format-link {background-color:#66ff99;}

    .format-quote .apostrophe-nothumb, .entry-format.format-quote {background-color:#ccff66;}

    .format-standard .apostrophe-nothumb, .entry-format.format-standard {background-color:#ffff66;}

    .format-status .apostrophe-nothumb, .entry-format.format-status {background-color:#66ffd9;}

    .format-video .apostrophe-nothumb, .entry-format.format-video {background-color:#ff8566;}

    [/code]

    I’ve had a difficult time trying to tweak the CSS Stylesheet for my blog/site title and blog/site description. I tried combinations header, title, description elements but decided to copy/paste the element belonging to the site-description in the final result below:

    [code language=”css”]

    .site-header .site-title, .site-header .site-description, .site-header .entry-header .entry-title, .site-header .entry-header .entry-meta a, .site-header .entry-header .post-navigation a {
    color: red;
    text-decoration: underline;
    text-align:center;
    }

    [/code>]

    I liked the darker red color of the font and center alignment of the text.

    I’m smart again! I’ve tweaked the CSS Stylesheet for the  Bushwick theme. Below is the sourcecode:

    [code language=”css”].site-info {display: none;}

    #colophon:after {content: "© Copyright 2006-2016 – FlynnsPaws – All ‘rights’ reserved – Thank you";}

    #colophon {text-align:center;}

    #colophon {font-size:x-small;}[/code]

    Behold! I’m smart! I’ve borrowed my old CSS codes and tweaked the ‘footer’ element to my weblog.

    Below is the source code to the CSS Stylesheet for your reference:

    [code language=”css”]#footer-wrap {display:none;}

    footer:after {content: "© Copyright 2006-2016 – FlynnsPaws – All ‘rights’ reserved – Thank you";}

    footer {text-align:center;}[/code]

    I don’t know if it’s proper to remove both references to the credit of my web-host and the premium theme. But I didn’t it anyway, at least temporarily. Bahaha!
