Bearming bulletin no. 1

I released the updated Bearming theme for Bear on December 14, and a lot of things have happened since then. Here’s a small summary of what’s been going on behind the scenes.

The latest theme version, which was just released, is Bearming 3.3. The biggest change is that you now have several new “knobs” to easily personalize the theme to your liking. You can effortlessly change fonts, sizes, add borders, and much more.

Since the release, I’ve also added four new color palettes and 15 new add-ons, and fixed a lot of boring things in the background to make everything play nicely together and add less weight. If you’re curious, you can find all the updates in the changelog.

This is my current setup:

• Standard palette
• Heart upvote button
• Header with avatar
• Active link underline
• Leading line (my latest favorite)
• Bearming menu (for theme-related pages)
• Curve underline (on the home page and this post)

Apart from that, I’ve also played around with the look a bit, adding a header border and tweaking the spacing. I’ll probably keep tinkering, maybe add a footer border too. And yes, I’m fully aware I’m biased, but I really like these new possibilities.

I have a million more ideas for what I want to do, but just like you, I’m limited by this tiny little thing called time. 😊

Maybe you have ideas too? Please let me know. No promises I’ll add them, but I’m open to all suggestions.

Happy blogging, no matter what platform or theme you’re using.
