So I've made some change- albeit somewhat minor ones. Curious if anyone has advice for me? What do you think of the overall layout?
Thanks!

I like the clean look. I would set a fixed width so that it doesn't look like this screenshot from my PC. I would also use a photo gallery plugin to show the pix side by side and open in a modal window. NextGen Gallery works nice for that.

So I changed it to a fixed width- I didn't even know it was doing that. Thanks for letting me know- is it better on your screen now?
As for the next gen gallery plugin- are you referring to just the most recent post with pictures- or something else?
I had to go google 'modal window' (Yes, I'm that computer illiterate)- I think I will have to work on that later as it is bound to take me awhile. After I take my final exams.
Thanks for the help!

Looks good now. With regards to the pictures yes I was referring to the latest post. If you use a gallery plugin you could have several pictures showing like on the bottom of this page.

I keep trying other themes with other websites, but I always get frustrated and come back to Atahualpa ... I think they call that an "addiction" don't they?

I've started using Atahualpa since the beginning of the year. I switched from blogspot to wordpress and tried a lot of themes before settling on Atahualpa. I have so much fun tweaking it around and have learned a lot of things along the way.
I still make a few changes once in a while but for now I'm quite satisfied with how my site looks. The greatest theme!
Here's my site: http://verypurpleperson.com/

My site is not as purple as the name, it's my internet id actually.
I find purple a bit difficult colour to be incorporated into any design.
So your link gives me a lot of ideas. Thanks!

New to blogging as of September. Started with blogger until I found Atahualpa. Still learning but was amazed at how easy it was to create my site: www.economicnoise.com Any comments/suggestions appreciated.

Atahualpa is a perfect theme for our homeowners' association website. Have a look at it: turtleridgehoa.net.

The " AStickyPostOrderER" plugin may help you in sorting the posts the way you want.

i appreciate it!

nice site. i like the look. how did your get the dark bar to span the window across the top? i usually set a fixed width; is that the effect of using a % width?
