Life Rocks! 2.0 Redesigned

Life Rocks! 2.0 has been redesigned. The theme I’m presently using is Cleaker 2.1 by Adam Walker Cleaveland. My readers had reported that my blog was taking too much time to load and I thought the best way to check this problem is to change the theme. Moreover I had messed up with the code of my previous theme. I was hunting for a three column theme with both the sidebars to the right and Cleaker 2.1 perfectly suited my requirement. This theme is simple and easy to customize (in fact I have increased the width of the actual theme) and I didn’t have to change much of the codes.

I also did a clean up of my blog and Sizlopedia’s tips on optimizing blog was really helpful. I used the plugin Clean Options, to clean up the database and also removed some categories which were not relevant or used.

Suggestions and feedback welcome!

    Awesome Nirmal, Job well done! You need to fix up the comments and I believe that print functionality you’ve added after the post creates duplicate content issue. Adding a nofollow to that link will help.
