I have tested WordPress 3.0 and customized the new Twenty Ten (2010) default theme. The customized theme, which I have called SelectDigitals, has the simplicity I like and should make finding content a snap.
I created a “Child Theme” for SelectDigitals which enabled me to make the theme modifications-while leaving the original Twenty Ten theme untouched. Another great feature of using a Child Theme is that it will not be overwritten by future upgrades and can be reselected after an upgrade.
I very much like the new layout with the large text area and larger font size: this makes blog reading easier.
Check back soon for an article about the theme changes I made.
