So you have a blog and you write about your day to day struggles convincing your parents to pay your rent, your kitten ‘Mittens’ (he has the most adorable brown feet) and your outfit choices for the day. Good for you, but I might steer clear of reading what you have to say.

Here at 2oceansvibe we like to give you a bit of everything whilst keeping our layout simple, easy to navigate and user-friendly. Alas we had some help doing it, which is where we must give a shout out to the guys at Obox. Yeah, these local computer whizz-kids are responsible for all the 2oceansvibe websites and have created a new theme that has set plenty of tongues wagging.

The new theme is called ‘Layers’ and it operates on the WordPress platform. The best bit? Completely FREE, forever.

So why has it generated such a buzz? Well sometimes less is more, and the Layers theme has made it easy for us. By removing endless design options and features, Layers provides you with just enough choice to create a beautiful site while still maintaining the fundamentals of good design.

There are some handy preset layouts for the real beginner and a real focus on making mobile and tablet access a priority.

If you have always wanted to try your hand at putting together a website but have been scared off in the past now is the time to pounce. You can read all about Layers and their approach HERE. Once you have mastered the basics and want to take your site for a test drive you can do so HERE.

Should you want a generous dose of inspiration before you get stuck in check out some Layers demo sites HERE and get a sense of what is possible using the theme. Your own coffee empire, you say?

Now you really have no excuse not to get your hands dirty and build the website you have always wanted. Hey, if the girl who hand-feeds Mittens every day can do it so can you.
