LonelyTree is a theme inspired by the global warming conditions around the world and in part dedicated to the bush fires. I live in Australia and if you have read or heard of the destruction caused by the fire in Australia you will have probably know the impact it has had on various communities and Wildlife.
LonelyTree image
I originally designed the LonelyTree as a big image and realized it might look better maybe as a theme which could be shared by blogger to reflect the urgent attention need to save guard our precious future. The LonelyTree image is a compilation of many brushes which can be found on deviantart.com you can check them out at http://www.gauson.com/blog/2009/11/01/lonelytree-artwork/

Ah! Matoo has sent me a fix!!
Thanks Matoo you are a legend!
Thanks Gauson for the great theme!
geat themes … simple and clean wp themes
the download file has the fix for the header and few others
Thank you for the wonderful theme. I just downloaded it and it looks wonderful. However, I have a question, I’m running on WP2.8.1 and I cannot get rid of the “Tag Cloud” on the sidebar; it doesn’t show up as a widget on the sidebar, but it appears on the webpage. Do you know how I can fix this? Thank you so much again.
How do I go about removing the tag cloud? I tried commenting out
Tag Cloud
in the sidebar.php, but that didn’t work. I don’t think I have enough terms – my cloud is empty right now, so I’d rather take it out.
Remove the following code in the sidebar.php
<!-- tag cloud --><?php if (!is_single()) : ?>
<div id="tag_cloud" class="widget">
<h3>Tag Cloud</h3>
<?php wp_tag_cloud('smallest=8&largest=16'); ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
I just wanted to add one more thing, it would be nice if the theme would allow the user to customize the order of categories. I found a few plugins that would allow me to re-order the categories, but none of them worked on this theme. Thank you!
I will look into this feature and get back to you soon.
Update: Are you trying to sort it a-z or z-a or just randomly.
Hey!
Could you please make the style.css available for v1.5 please?
Or email me this?
Thanks!
emailed you the zip file Richie enjoy
I would like to use a custom logo. BUT – I don’t have access to saving files to /themes/lonelytree/images/ to save my logo.png there.
I’m wondering – is there a way to change the path in the header.php so that it’s looking someplace else for logo.png? Would I make this change in the style sheet as well? Any pointers would be appreciated.
Just find the following code in the header.php file
<a href="/"><img src="" title="" alt="" />and replace it with the code below and insert the location of the logo
<a href="/"><img src="http://www.yourimagelocation.com/logo.jpg" title="" alt="" />If you are still having problems with the code please do not hesitate to contact me.
Thank you for the reply, G!
I’m trying to sort my categories, not randomly, but in a certain order that would be customizable by me. Would that be possible?
Will look into customizing the categories a bit further.
Thank you! I was close, but not close enough.
Thank you Gauson! I actually prefer 1.5 for what I am doing!
Great theme and great support!!

I think this should be a simple problem, but I can’t seem to find the hex # code for the green font. I modified the theme for a little bit to fit my website’s needs, and I wanted to change the font color where it appears in green in your theme to blue. Please help me out with this! Thanks!
The color code for the green color: #006600
“The color code for the green color: #006600″
That’s what I figured and I was able to change those.. but I want to change the colors of the font, as in heading 1 2 3 etc, and for hyperlinks. Thanks!
Never mind my last comment. I wasn’t looking in the right place.
Is there a way to display comments under each post in archive without clicking on “Comments (#)”? I really need the comments to be displayed under posts inside the archive, and I’ve been googling, but can’t find the right answer. Please help! Thanks!
