We’ve been hard at work to bring you some new designs to use for your sites! Today we’re releasing “Flow” and “Carbon,” two new graphical templates that we’ve enjoyed creating.
“Flow” offers a smooth design with bold colors, and comes in two variants: “citrus” and “breeze.” The template offers an organic feel while still being sleek and modern.
“Carbon” comes in three variants, “warm,” “fresh” and “cool.” The main graphic in the template is a photo of translucent leaves. The leaves break out of their containing box and become slightly blurred at the parts that stick out. This template would be suited well to a house surrounded by nature.
Remember, you can always test out a new template by changing your site’s template. Your published site won’t be affected until you click “Publish.”

Hello and good Monday!
Were here at RDO have been very busy. First up is a re-design of our Pricing Page - it should now be perfectly clear exactly how much the different account types cost. The page can be found right over here. If you have any thoughts or suggestions about how to make that information even clearer, we’d love to hear them!
Oh, and you may have noticed that flipping through the different account types yields some fairly attractive scrolling action. If you’re going to be a long-time reader of this blog, then you’ll probably just have to get used to me saying the following: jQuery rocks my world! If you do any serious web development, you absolutely must give jQuery a shot.
Next I’d like to extend a big thank-you to Marcia Edwards! She was kind enough to meet with us on Friday morning and discuss marketing, strategy, and positioning. We will be making a large effort to reach a wider audience very soon - helping agents across the country sell homes faster.
Hey maybe our slogan should be “Real Design Online - saving the country’s economy one Property Site at a time!”

Wow, I didn’t realize working with Wordpress Themes would be so involved. I also could have probably chosen a less intense concept for my first run through this system. Ah well - I’ve never been one for learning things the easy way!
I don’t really know if I got all of the little quirks ironed out with this design… so leave a comment if you notice something is terribly, horribly broken!
Oh, and the coolest part of this theme I’ve made is the way it scrolls. So I’m just going to keep on typing until I fill up enough space to give most reasonable people a scrollbar. Then I suggest you scroll down.
Down, Down, Down.
This should be enough!
