Recently, a friend of mine called this blog “ugly”. I concur with the evaluation – this theme is definitely NOT on the cutting edge of design or creativity. Moreover, I been having this naggy feeling in the back of my head that it isn’t very “useable” in the long run either..

Therefore, I will improve it.. somehow ;P I’m a programmer, not a designer. Its not in my nature to come up with constructs that are anything more than utilitarian. The current retro look (based on those old terminal displays) is probably an extension of that mentality.

Maybe I’m lucky I didn’t go full retro. Wow.

Anyway, I found something called wp-constructor hosted on Google Code. From a cursory examination of the project page, it appears to consist of “utility” WordPress themes that serve as the basis for more complex designs. I’m going to give it a go when time permits during the next few days (weeks?).
