“So far in the Wordpress Tips series, we’ve talked about all the killer plugins you can add to your WordPress powered blog. But what about the actual appearance? You never get a second chance to make a first impression, so you need a clean, easy to read, and well organized theme for your blog. Today we’re going to concentrate on three column designs.

One thing to keep in mind when choosing a theme is Fixed Width vs. Variable Width. Fixed Width themes are just that: a fixed set of dimensions and will show up the same in all browsers. Variable Width themes change to the dimension of the display they are being seen on; while it looks good to fill the entire screen, make sure to check extreme display sizes to see if the theme “breaks” at certain sizes.”
