Penguin Classics Tumblr Theme
This is a demo of the Penguin Classics theme for Tumblr, by Max Wheeler. It’s based — oddly enough — on the wonderful Penguin Classics books. To install, simply download this text file (v1.1), and do this:
Click the “Customize” button on your Dashboard. Click the “Theme” tab, and click “Use custom HTML”. This will bring up a text box with your current theme’s HTML code.
Then you just need to copy and paste the code from the text file into that text box and click ‘Save Changes’.
While the theme works in Internet Explorer, it doesn’t really capture the full experience. To see it as it was meant to be I recommend viewing it in Safari, though Firefox is also an ample substitute. Also, a few bugs/rendering issues will likely arise once/if people start using the theme, so please feel free to send me an email via max at makenosound dot com if you come across a problem. I’ll post any updates to the theme here, so you may want to follow this tumblelog for notification ease.
Update 27/3/2008:
I forgot to add in a style for ordered lists. My bad. It’s in there now though, so download v1.1 and you’ll be set.
* FYI: Neither myself, nor the theme is in anyway affilliated or endorsed by Penguin Books.
