  • When on mobile,
    • headlines do not break the line correctly (non-responsive)
    • There's no navigation in posts
    • no footer
    • overall looks cheap

Can members point out themes that they like here: https://hexo.io/themes/ ?
I'll start by saying that I like the following things about our current theme (geek):

  • mono space hacker font
  • the blue color scheme
  • the sdp flag
  • the simple navigation (but I think it should be displayed on every page)

About my own blog (also a hexo theme), I like:

  • it's responsive on mobile
  • it's "Writing" section on the front page makes more sense (it's not divided by years)

  • it has a footer with a sitemap and copyright notice
  • it's navigation remains on all pages
  • when on a post, a post specific navigation is displayed on desktop

I'd like to avoid the dist0rtion.com website to look exactly like my website. IMO we can use the cactus theme I'm using, but then we should modify it heavily to make a differentiation clear.

We could also build the geek theme towards the cactus theme...
After all, all themes are just JS, CSS, HTML...

I've looked through the hexo theme catalogue and so far I haven't found anything that I really liked for dist0rtion.com

What I'm looking for:

dist0rtion and some 3D or 2D effects (the Berlin Cryptoparties by bitnik are usually really cool: https://0b673cce.xyz/) https://twitter.com/bitnk

I like this idea. If we can combine it to have something accessible and understandable that would be nice. I don't want something totally weird and random. We've done some nice projects and I want people to be able to access them.

I love solar and smackdown from the previews

Solar is really similar to what we have now. I tried to find a preview of smackdown but I cannot find it, any preview?

To be honest I would even have a website with no style at all. Just enough CSS to resize images (something like img { max-width: 100% }) and few more things to make it browsable from the smartphone.

Try to remove the stylesheets from dist0rtion.com.

Less styles = less mental overhead = less decisions = let's focus on what's important.
