Well folks, I decided to pull the plug on the new theme. I do like the color scheme and the header along with the random photos in the corner. What I didn’t like was that for a 3 column theme, it placed both of the navigation columns together along the right with the blog content on the left. This seems to be a fairly common theme now. When I dig through most of the WordPress themes, there are very few left that put the blog content in the middle with other items on either side. I REALLY prefer to have things on either side as I find when the two smaller columns are put together, it looks crammed.
So, I’ve gone back to old faithful here and will continue looking for something that works. I did find a 2 column theme which I really like but I need to see if I can make the column with the navigation stuff work the way I want it to.
