I have always had a love for web designing.  At first I used to make themes for WordPress now that I have moved to Blogspot I decided to make a Blogspot theme that I can customize as I like. In doing so I thought why not make a theme that everybody can customize, rather I decided to make a free version and write up my progress from start to end.



I did all that yesterday as I made CODAthemes.

You can follow up the progress from the last post that was written, or I am summarizin everything here for ease.

If you are not much of a reader you can simply download the final version and do as you like from here.

Step1. At first we made a dummy template, here.

Step2. We added a CSS for post images in our blog, here.

Step3. Applied a new font and set font size, here.

Step4. Added CSS for sidebar, here

Step5. Made the theme responsive, here.

Step6. Thumbnails summary in the home page was added, here.

Step7. Finalised the template with few changes, here.

Now this theme is complete in its own sense, but if you plan to sell a theme you need to do alot more than this. Go ahead and experiment with stuffs. You can add featured contents slider, custom sidebar and better footer and sell it on Themeforest.

When the reference is remove, object won't move therefore dropped. void Update(){ RaycastHit2D hit = Physics2D.Raycast(Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition), Vector2.zero); if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)){ if(hit.transform != null)             {                 if (hit.transform.CompareTag("PIECE"))                 {     ...
