However, a lot of things have changed ever since I decided to run a self-hosted blog. One of the first things that I had to do to set up my blog was to download free themes from WP Themes Directory. The instruction was to download the template to /public_html/ and then unzip the files. It took me more than two hours to choose the appropriate layout but only a few minutes to download and extract the files. The only problem that I encountered was the missing stylesheet. Most of the templates that I downloaded were broken themes according to the note below my themes directory. I had a bad feeling that while I was on the process of extracting the files, I accidentally click something that corrupted the stylesheet. WordPress sent me an e-mail saying “Don’t push your theme files down into another sub-directory within your zip file.” I didn’t know how to fix it so I just searched for another theme that would work.

Luckily, I was able to find a free wp theme designed by Mr. R.Bhavesh. I think this layout is simple yet elegant. I just wish the font size of the text is little bit bigger, and the color of the header is pink but for me, it’s really perfect! Well, almost hehe
