    I've been working on my first real WordPress theme for a couple of days now and was thinking a little feedback would be nice.

    I was going for the blogger denim look with the K2 page navigation. I started with the sandbox theme, do I have to leave that link on the theme?

    Remember it is my first attempt really. Just looking for any feedback or suggestions.

    Thanks

    The theme is kind of plain.. I would atleast add something else to the header area.. even if it's just gradients..

    I was thinking about doing a customizable header background image maybe.

    How come the Blogroll isn't in the yellow area? I guess you missed something. :D Also, add some style to the links. ;)

    Good luck!

    When giving a preview, you can remove the Google adsense ads, so it may look kinda better. And I like your Header navigation abut it needs a couple of things to get into live blogs.

    If this IS your first wordpress theme, I think you will be a Wordpress Wiz in a couple of weeks, trust me.
