When I initially started Splash of Style, Wordpress only utilized one template - the index.php file. When Wordpress 1.5 was released, a new template theme system was offered, which gave Wordpress so much more versatility.
When I upgraded the site to version 1.5, I kept using one template file; I was still fairly new to Wordpress, and I didn’t want to mess up the site.
Since I now have a lot more experience with Wordpress themes, today I decided to be brave and convert the site over to the new theme system. It was a little messy at first, with a few php errors, and missing images. But eventually, it came together. I even experimented a little with a custom search page.
If anyone notices anything funky or out of sorts, PLEASE contact me. I tried to look at every possible scenario on the site, but I am sure there is something I missed.
