Update WordPress Theme (amazing grace)

My client would like to update the template for his WordPress blog to make some overall improvements to the color, spacing and layout of the page. The base theme is a revised version of amazing grace - attached as blog_original.png. The programmer will have the freedom to interpret certain visual elements (i.e. tab graphics, horizontal rule between posts, etc.) in whatever way they think looks best. The second attachment ([login to view URL]) was created by the client's daughter and is intended to represent a loose depiction of how he would generally like to improve it, although the final revisions do not need to be a re-creation of the mockup. It should serve to represent the general direction of layout improvements. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The most important revisions depicted in the mockup will be: * New title and tagline - "Karl Bayer's Disputing" * Tabs - Blog, About, Contact, Archives * General color scheme * Cleaner break between posts * Logo on the right side of the bridge image * Gradient depth on the sides of the header and left-hand sidebar * The left-hand sidebar should remain somewhat similar to the mockup ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The developer will need to make all revisions on a duplicated test blog so that the changes can be fully updated and tested before replacing the live version. A seven-day turnaround is requested if possible.
