Winning a custom wordpress theme!

First I’d just like to welcome all the new readers from our last post. We got some huge spikes in traffic and I hope you all stick around. We re-thought the idea and realized that without further implications, it will remain what it is, an idea. At least for now…

On brighter news, a nice guy named Brian from plainbeta is offering a to design a free custom wordpress theme for any blog to further develop his web design skills and develop his portfolio.

So I thought I would give it a shot in his contest. In all honesty, Josh expertises in the realm of software programming rather than web design but this could provide nice experience for him as well.

So we are searching for that elegant web 2.0 style of course and already got a logo going on. So onto his questions!

Why should I pick your blog?

Simply put, our blog’s message and name is “Can The World Hear Me”, and that is what we want, the world to know who we are. So we definitely need a special theme that stands out from the rest and is nice to look at. We are only 16 so some people might not take us seriously but we definitely want that ‘professional touch’ so that people do. Our blog currently deals with our search for a startup idea that can go head-to-head with whatever is going on in Silicon Valley right now despite the fact that we are only 16. We are looking into adding other sections for “ideas” and such that add the extra flare in a otherwise normal looking blog. By picking our blog, you are helping us achieve that dream.

What do you want the design to look like?

We have some ideas going around, mostly just a conglomeration of other designs we have seen. We have been having trouble finding a color scheme that we like too so we hope we can work together with you to develop a nice working theme.

So what’s so special about it?

I’m not too sure but I am almost certain that we are two of a few teens with a dream as big as this. What happened was that we were just two friends going through the tribulations of high school with just dreams and nothing special. We finally wanted to stand out and take action and that is where this blog comes from. Objective #1 was to get noticed in the “blogosphere” and we are well on our way and a new fresh design would be awesome as well.

So with that we hope this was a good sell Brian. Hope to get in contact with you soon.
