giving feedback on Spectrum
-
Thank you so much! How do you figure that out? I got different results from Firebug. I hate to keep bugging people with this every time I change themes.

In test preview for cyclewriteblog.wordpress.com (I currently use Misty Look) , I noticed that whenever there is a slideshow frame in a blog post, for the paragraph under the slide frame, the spaces between sentence lines are noticeably compressed. This looks likes a technical error.
I am intrigued that the caption titles under images are not easily differentiated by different font size or font type, the surrounding blog post text.

Firebug will only take you so far. You have to study the XHTML and how it and the CSS relate to one another, and in some cases what you end up using is not the specific selector firebug reports, but a parent selector.
The header logo text is logo h1, but it is also a link, so you have to use the link selector for logo h1, which is logo h1 a.
The tagline was a direct read off of firebug.
The main content is under #content, but there are several classes under that parent ID (.main-title, .post-meta, .entry). .entry is the body of the post.

Ok the pages are not working right on this theme I can not find the pages I put under a parent page. Tried it on each of my blog, and same problem the blog I want to use this on hit http://www.dearbornheights.wordpress.com If you look under commissions and boards on the header you will see the drop down for all of them. Same for the council members. The council members transfer over no problem, but the commissions and boards do not. Please help me.

@drheights48127 Did you create a Custom menu at some point? http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/
And by the way there is no www in wordpress.com blog addresses. :)

OK-I can confirm what @drheights48127 is saying.
Just created child pages to the 1 parent page on my test blog. There is no display of page hierarchy; Only the parent page shows up in the header. Apparently this is also the case on the spectrum test blog http://spectrumdemo.wordpress.com/level-1/
In order to display child pages in the navbar, one must create a Custom menu.
Feature or bug?

@texjoy777: Re your first post, to view the CSS of a theme you go to Appearance > Edit CSS and click “view original stylesheet”.

So feature or bug anyone know the answer I like the look of it, but can not use it the was it is. I wish someone would fix this please.
Thank You

Nice theme, installed it right away!
Question though: can I change the order of date to the European style? Instead of 10-18-10 I would like to read 18-10-10 for today. Anybody? :)

@michielvisser: Hi. More information about this issue here:

Thanks for all the reports and comments!
@drheights48127
That is the way Spectrum is supposed to work, only showing the top most parents when no custom menus are set. As justjennifer pointed out, you can get drop-downs to work if you use custom menus.@michielvisser and @airodyssey
You can now have a date of ‘d/m/Y’ if you set it so in your settings. -
I really love Spectrum, especially the header image. Unfortunately I’ve somehow lost the image so my site is looking rather plain.
see http://leadershipliteracies.wordpress.com/How do I fix this? I have css editing capabilities.

Fantastic theme, but I have some problems on particular pages. Why would some pages work and others not? This seems to be limited to IE, as Chrome displays the page just fine.

I changed background images and now my page loads slowly. Actually, the background image loads immediately, but the white main column background loads slowly. Is there a way to fix this?
