Changing Theme: StableStart-Black

Probably because my blog is a subdomain these issues never came up before.

Change the site.master page

1) Replace

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="~/themes/Thumper/images/theme_icon.ico" type="image/x-icon"/>

With 

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="images/theme_icon.ico"
type="image/x-icon"/>

after creating an images folder off the root and copying the theme_icon.ico there. But makes it not so generic.

2) Change

<span class="sitename"><a id="A1" href="~/"><%=BlogSettings.Instance.Name %></a></span>

to


<span class="sitename"><a id="A1" href="<%=VirtualPathUtility.ToAbsolute("~/")%>"><%=BlogSettings.Instance.Name
%>
</a></span>

 

3) In stablestart.css

margin : 55px
auto;

Becomes 

margin : 0
55px auto;

because we don't like to waste space at the top.
