Much more than crafting Ice Cream.
Transitioning the blog to Genesis after completing the child theme for my main blog. I intend to make it more like a tumblr blog, so I’m making more modifications when I have the time… don’t worry though, it will look better than Twenty Eleven.
(Also tremendously easier since this theme doesn’t take out the bloody sidebar.)
I have noticed that Mandingo is displaying most of the content incorrectly and creating some glitches, so I decided to throw the theme out and make a new one for Shiori’s Diary. After hours of readding the Woo-tumblog features to the theme and messing around with the CSS and HTML, I have finally made a theme that looks noticeably better than the previous.
The new theme is a child theme of Twenty Eleven, a theme included in the Wordpress 3.2 default installation. The benefit of this theme over the old one is custom menus support, HTML5 and a better design. Sadly, they have removed the displaying of the sidebars in single posts and pages, so I had to change the CSS and PHP to add them back.
If you notice any glitches or have any suggestions on improving the new theme, just make a comment below. The design is not final since I have to make a few more tweaks and make a new banner, so it’s subject to change.
Update: Fixed the custom fonts issue in Firefox. Apparently, it does not allow loading of custom fonts from different domains.
P2 Mod for mandigo theme is now available from Github. Since P2 is licensed on the GPLv2, the mod is licensed under the same license. Follow the instructions in the readme to make it work…
Beware… this project is still a work in progress… but mostly everything works.

Integrated P2 functions into Mandigo. Its still needs more work since new replies and posts don’t show automatically. Also, some CSS glitches with P2 that also needs to be fixed…
I plan on having the modified files on Github once the integration is done so other people can do the same on their blogs.
Update: New posts and comments should load properly.
The child theme for Chikorita157’s Anime Blog is made available at Github under the GPLv3. To use it, install Thematic and the child theme. Afterwards, activate the child theme. You may modify the theme as much as you want, but you must keep the credit of the theme in tact.
