Updated Scruffy BlogEngine.NET Theme

by jrummell 31. May 2010 14:47

There seems to be a lack of up to date themes in the BlogEngine.NET community lately. Initially, there were a ton of great themes available from very talented designers. But the themes haven’t kept up with new releases of the blog engine. I used a few themes here on older versions, but alas, it seems that all of the cool themes look bad in BlogEngine.NET 1.5+ so now I’m back to the Standard theme.

I’m a much better developer than designer, but I was able to update the Scruffy theme for version 1.6.1.0, which includes reCAPTCHA support. All that I had to do was replace CommentView.ascx and the comment related CSS in style.css with what’s in the Standard theme. I did this for my wife since she can’t blog without Scruffy. If I find the time, I may try updating a few more. I’m open to suggestions.

Hi John,

Thanks for the download. It's now my default theme. I have added the link to my BlogEngine theme post on my site so that others can find it too.

If you update any more themes let me know and I'll add them to my list.

Thanks again,
Rich

Maybe in time I will consider having this as my blogging platform. Even though lots of people saying this platform is hard to handle.
