    Thanks again. Totally agree with indigorchid. you have done a great work and the support you have been giving us is amazing.
    my blog (send you a link via contact form) is almost done, just need to change something.
    There’s a red line just below the logo on the header that goes from one side of the page to the other. The default was grey (i think) at 1px. changed to red at 2px but i can’t figure out how to make it the same width as the slideshow box. Added a background pattern and i dont want that red line to go over it.

    Sorry but the pagination is not working :( I tried pagination plugins, but the problem still persists, I believe there is some problem with the loop…

      #2624 this is wrong. make sure you have the proper color code. there are 6 character in every color code. for example: #FF0000

      To add Vimeo:
      Go to Appearance> Editor and select header.php from right and find this line:

      1

      <li class="soc_plus"><a title="Google Plus" href="<?php echo $option['trt_gplus_url'] ? rel="nofollow">">Google Plus</a></li>

      then add this line after it:

      1

      <li class="soc_vmo"><a title="Vimeo" href="link to your Vimeo url" rel="nofollow">Vimeo</a></li>

      And then click the “Update File” button below and select “Stylesheet” from right and add these lines:

      1

      .social ul .soc_vmo a{background:url("http://www.imgjoe.com/x/vimeoovo.png") no-repeat!important; display:block; width:16px; height:16px; text-indent:-999999px;}

    I have a question about using the featured posts widget:

    I want to use six of them on the main page and I want them to show up as two rows of three. However, when I add the six they show up as one row of three, one row of two, and one row of one.

    How can I fix this?

Also, the menu goes BEHIND the slider in IE. http://www.biz.uiowa.edu/cimbamba. I’d appreciate any help because I don’t want to change templates now.

    I really love Triton Lite! It’s gorgeous and clean. I was wondering, though, if it might be possible for me to use my own logo in place of the existent logo text? The URL I entered in this reply form links to the development site for a project I’m working on, and upgrading right now isn’t an option (I don’t want to spend anything without permission from my client).

    Thanks again for allowing for a free theme, and I can’t wait to upgrade once I get clearance from the site owner to do so…
