Hello Tom,

thanks to you, then, for your detailed review notes. I have fixed (to my knowledge) all the issues identified and posted 0.9 of the theme for review (a minute ago). I did leave the code for the pages file as is, but added a check to the common code to not display date stamp for pages (as suggested in the Codex).

Additionally I have passed the theme XHTML and CSS through the W3C validator and cleaned it up so the only warnings/errors that remain are the -moz, -webkit shadow and border radius stuff. FYI, since my development blog is not visible outside, I used one of my external blogs (http://0sum.org/). Various other things have been fixed as well: esc_attr() for relevant PHP generated HTML attributes, IE specific CSS, use of register_sidebar_widget() was removed, a few hints for added for the collapsibility of sidebar widgets, meta tags were made single-line, capitalised stylesheet elements were made lowercase, the PHP errors/warnings noted in the Trac ticket were resolved, reference to ‘global $_POST’ was removed, an icon that was not GPL (from pixel-mixer, as you correctly noted) was replaced, 404 page title was set to standard title size.

I also made sure that the search widget works (please let me know if there is some use case that I am missing). I have not yet created a print style for this theme. That will be significant work, to be done right, and I will work on that shortly.

Regards,

>> Great feedback, Edward. I will work on fixing the validation etc. Regarding icons, those links were copied over from an older version and I have stripped most icons out of the theme. I will double check and update the links or replace the icons. The one place I disagree is regarding copying code from single.php. I would rather not have duplicated code.
