<p>The <a href="http://www.evowpthemes.com/evo4/" target="_blank"><strong>Evo4 CMS WordPress Theme</strong></a> <br />
            by Ray Gulick</p>
</p></div>
<p>We stepped away from the HTML table based design we had here and remodeled the site this time using <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cascading_Style_Sheets" target="_blank"><strong>CSS</strong></a> to format the presentation and <a href="http://wordpress.org/" target="_blank"><strong>WordPress</strong></a> as a Content Management System (CMS). To do that we took the <a href="http://www.evowpthemes.com/evo4/" target="_blank"><strong>Evo4 CMS WordPress Theme</strong></a> developed by Ray Gulick of <a href="http://www.evowebdev.com/" target="_blank"><strong>Evolution Web Development</strong></a> as a development framework and modified the CSS to look like another Macintosh inspired WordPress theme we&#8217;ve used before called <a href="http://www.ndesign-studio.com/wp-themes/itheme" target="_blank"><strong>iTheme</strong></a> design by Nick La (our design for the <a href="http://www.howtodisposeof.com/" target="_blank"><strong>HowToDisposeOf.com</strong></a> website uses Nick La&#8217;s iTheme as a framework and we just we made changes there to the CSS too to get the right look for that site).</p>
<div class="imageRight">
<p><a href="http://www.ndesign-studio.com/wp-themes/itheme" target="_blank"><img src="/Media_360DifferenceBlog/iTheme_screenshot.png" width="241" height="180" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.ndesign-studio.com/wp-themes/itheme" target="_blank"><strong>iTheme</strong></a> design by Nick La </p>
</p></div>
<p>You can see from the screenshots on the right of the two designs that they have a very different look so when you see how the Evo4 theme can be CSS coded to look like iTheme you can begin to see the power and design flexibility that CSS gives to web designers. </p>
<p>Our choice of using WordPress as a  Content Management System also enabled us to use the <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-e-commerce/" target="_blank"><strong>WP e-Commerce</strong></a> plug-in from <a href="http://getshopped.org/" target="_blank"><strong>GetShopped.org</strong></a> to organize and run <a href="http://360difference.com/index.php/the-360-difference-store/"><strong>The 360 Difference Store</strong></a>. </p>
<p>As we continue to add software products this spring and post training videos and answer support questions in our FAQ we hope you&#8217;ll all tell us how this new web design looks and works for you. </p>
