Chocolate Con Leche

This is the demo for my first Tumblr theme, Chocolate Con Leche.

I’d like to start by thank Bill of Cubicle17 for his iChat-style chat posts idea. When it came down to styling them, I wasn’t sure of what I wanted to do, but I wanted it to be something other than the same old tired look. I’m very pleased with how they turned out.
Also, thanks to Nik of Humachine for her advice on colours. If it wasn’t for her, this would be a really dull theme…

I’ve tested this theme rather thoroughly, but in case you find a bug or something that doesn’t look quite right, please drop me a line at vidaar at gmail dot com.
In the (unlikely?) event that you’d want to use this theme outside of Tumblr or distribute a modified version, write me at the previously mentioned address, I’d love to hear all about it.

Now, without further ado, I give you the download link.

Enjoy!

Tourist:

Could you give us directions to Olive Garden?

New Yorker:

No, but I could give you directions to an actual Italian restaurant.

Tourist:

Have we had this conversation before? It sure feels like it.

New Yorker:

Now that you mention it, I do have a strange sensation of deja vu.

Tourist:

Oh, this is Groundhog Day all over again...

New Yorker:

Help! We're stuck in theme!

Spins on the Photoshop logo.

I was looking for a certain icon when I came across this review for the horror that was announced as the new logo of Photoshop a while ago. Don’t bother with the article and go straight to the comments section, there’s some really good stuff in there.

Chocolate

Chocolate comprises a number of raw and processed foods that are produced from the seed of the tropical cacao tree. Native to lowland, tropical South America, cacao has been cultivated for three millennia in Central America and Mexico, with its earliest documented use around 1100 BC. The majority of the Mesoamerican peoples made chocolate beverages, including the Maya and Aztecs, who made it into a beverage known as xocolātl, a Nahuatl word meaning “bitter water”. The seeds of the cacao tree have an intense bitter taste, and must be fermented to develop the flavor. After being roasted and ground, the result is chocolate or cocoa.
