I have used the Vesuvius “template” (interface?) by Root for WP 1.2.x and I was delighted by the flexibility of it - fluid 3 column. Since I couldn’t find any version of it ported to WP 1.5 I decided to do the job.
You can see it in action by using the theme switcher on the right. It’s a basic design and you can easily change the colours or whatever you wish. I have added two templates: page.php and archive.php.
Just download and drop it into your themes folder in the usual way.
Update. Earlier you needed to upload the Vesuvius files in a theme directory called “vesuv_151″ in order to work properly. I have modified the first line in the stylesheet, so now you should create a folder called vesuvius for the theme. I apologize for any inconvenience.
Hi. I was trying to implement your theme but I get the message it can’t find the stylesheet and the .ccs file. I am still new to wordpress but maybe I issed something.
cheers,

It might be because now it requires the theme folder to be named “vesuv_151″.
I’ll correct it - thanks for bringing it up!
Hi,
Thanks. I reinstalled it and noticed that one of the files is called “page” I think this caused some problems . Once I changed it to “index” it seems to work
cheers

Numai bine.
Never mind…. I clicked on your “Design” link and followed a link I found on that page and found the working model at http://www.transycan.net/blogtest/.
Think it has a lot of potential. May be what I’m looking for.
Thanks,

how do you even change a theme or change a picture of your header? how do u reveal all the coding so that u can change it in wordpress?
BCHu, what theme are we talking about? Vesuvius doesn’t have any picture in the header.
If your question is a general one, see http://codex.wordpress.org/Designing_Headers
And for coding: download the themes and you’ll have all the necessary files with all the code.
This is such a good theme! Great job!
Hi there - I’m trying to use this theme on http://www.renewedreflections.com, however I’m noticing that it’s not showing images in the excerpts, even if they’re above the “more” tag, and the previous|next thing is either non-existent or just plain not working…
Any help with this would be massively appreciated!
Thanks for your sharing
