Colorful tumblr theme

Here’s one of the coolest tumblr themes I’ve seen so far:

The little colorful block on the right is actually a color chooser, filled with some really nice color scheme choices.?? I’ve e-mailed the site owner to see if they will share how that was accomplished, and if I find out, I’ll share it here.

    Why don’t you just take a look at the code? It looks like the Javascript generates a link to a css stylesheet that’s really a dynamic page in php that changes based on its query string.

    So that trick won’t work unless you’ve got a server to run php on. But, of course, you could replicate the trick in Javascript.

    Simen’s good. It is primarily javascript with a PHP backend. So, yes, you would need to have a server that can process PHP in order for it to work. Or figure out how to do color transformations in javascript (no fun, really)

    I can share the PHP with anyone who wants it.. it is very simple and just spits out CSS.

    The commenting system, too, is javascript with a PHP backend. All available to anyone who asks me nicely.

    Hi Gondaba,

    I totally dig your site. Coolest one out there.

    Would you be up to posting the commenting system? Everyone seems to be using discuss, but yours is simple and elegant. Gotta dig it. Well, hope you’re up to it.
