  I recently used the WordPress.com new SpringLoaded Theme, but due to its following 3 design (HTML/CSS) problems, I have changed this theme to another theme for my WordPress blog:

  1. The SpringLoaded Theme’s all right navigation bars or all widgets on the right side automatically float at the bottom of each Webpage when any reader looks at it, through the Microsoft Internet Explorer 8, while signed out of his/her WordPress blog:

  2. The HTML OL (numbered) lists do not working properly in the SpringLoaded Theme, because the dots and spaces at the end of almost each and every number disappear leaving no space between the numbers and the text in the OL lists.

  3. The very large red Date display on the left side of each Webpage and every post should be deleted/removed from the SpringLoaded Theme, because countless bloggers do not want to show/display the date of their posts or pages so prominently. If the date of any Webpage or published item is old and the old date displays like a very big red headline, then innumerable readers will not read the Webpage with an old date while thinking that the printed item is old or very old. Sometimes old is gold, but new is view.

  NOTE: All designers of WordPress themes or templates should allow all WordPress users to change the colors of their templates or themes, so that the WordPress bloggers can add or change almost any color of their choice in their WordPress blogs/websites.

  Hi,

  Thanks for getting in touch. Unfortunately, as SpringLoaded is a free theme and we do not make any profit on the back of it, we offer absolutely no support for it. It is also down to us what specification we build our themes to as we are a functioning business and have limited time to spend on non-profit projects.

  If you would like to make these changes yourself and contribute them back to the [WordPress] community, feel free to do so, but we will not be doing so unless someone wants to commission us to do this.

  Thanks!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
