my BuddyPress site finally launched…

if you like dogs, you’ll appreciate the niche in which BP was used to create the latest add-on for AvenueK9.com. Log onto members.avenuek9.com and “join the pack,” as we say. if you’re on Facebook, you’re already a member. Accompanying post is here… http://www.avenuek9.com/2009/07/27/sign-up-become-a-k9ner/

If you like the BP theme, you can download it on the official BP site — http://buddypress.org/extend/themes/

AvenueK9 BuddyPress Theme

It’s finally done. The first incarnation of AvenueK9′s BuddyPress theme is hot off the keyboard and available for download/hackery. It’s far from perfect… and just before I started styling the BP home theme, I already started getting ideas for a newer, fancier theme. Eh. So what’s this got that the other ones don’t? A fixed width. I know that concept is rather vomit-inducing, but I really wanted to focus on continuity between AvenueK9.com and its *VIP* section. That included maintaining the container width sitewide. Since that site was optimized for those old, crappy 1024×768 monitors, the 980-pixel-wide design was carried over to theme its BP counterpart. Other changes include some switched content — mainly the masthead/logo, main navigation, login section and search box. Enjoy!
