Please check out the all-new SnoringScholar.com! Sarah Reinhard has been a joy to work with, first on her parish website and now on her personal blog. We wanted something with a “homey” feel without it being too Cutesy Country Living (technical term). Working from a photo of Sarah’s kitchen window and her statue of the Blessed Mother, we came up with a theme that I think really suits her warm, conversational style.
This site was my first go-round with responsive design, a fancy term that means “magically reshaping itself to fit the screens of various mobile devices.” It’s based on the eleven40 theme from StudioPress, customized for a more personal style. If you’re reading this on a mobile device, can you let me know how her site looks and if there are any bugs I still need to fix?
I shall conclude this Blatant Commercial Self-Promotion Capitalist Fink Talk with a reminder: I’d love to be your Website Gal. Add me to your entourage! Refer me to your friends and/or frenemies! Check out my portfolio and stay tuned for an Exciting Special Promotion soon.
It looks great on my iPhone.
Looks great on the iPad too. No sneaking iPad themes with the functionality of a hollow brick.

Oof, I take it back a little. On the iPad, the sidebar just gets kicked to the bottom, so navigation is difficult. But otherwise it’s a pretty theme.

Ahh, the sidebar jumps back up to the side in landscape mode I see. That isn’t as clever as the programmers think.
Ha! Well, you can’t please everyone.
I specifically like that the sidebar doesn’t keep getting squashed as the screen resolution decreases. It does create issues if the navigation is in the sidebar, though – good point. Can we agree that it’s far better than WP-Touch? (the default thing for WordPress.com sites).

Oh, my goodness yes! But I think a lot of iPad users tend to browse in portrait mode (all the ones I know do) but portrait mode doesn’t get a lot of mobile love yet.
