A New Look for Remotely Sorted

I am getting close to leaving my full time job to focus on Remotely Sorted. So, I thought that the website deserved a bit of an update! Welcome to a new look for Remotely Sorted.

There have been a few tweaks over recent months (the main one being the logo!). But now I’m going for a whole new theme.

How did I pick the original theme for Remotely Sorted?

I originally based the site on the Ares theme. I was new to WordPress so didn’t really know what I was doing when I scrolled through the many options! There seemed to be so many themes available, I really didn’t know how to choose. On seeing Ares, I thought this could be the theme for me! I liked the overall design and, with the colour option I chose, it was quite nice and calming.

Why am I changing the theme?

Now, I’m more confident in personalising the site so I want to try something new! Introducing Sydney! This new look for Remotely Sorted will give me a few more options (without modifying the background scripts!) so, it seems like the ideal next step. I like the new design but, what do you think – I’d really appreciate your comments.
