New Colour Palettes

After creating Cherrypie and Vanilla palettes by extracting colours from 'dana' and 'light' themes, the time came to do the same for what used to be 'dark theme'. The new palette is called Chocorange.

Since this colour palette was extracted from 'dark theme' to create a new, 'simple' theme, it already works with it well. The main challenge was to integrate it with 'dana' theme. I also made sure that the palette is consistent in responsive design mode.

Creating this palette was exciting for me. Firstly I wanted to test how easy it will be to create a new palette based on the structure of the old ones. It was really simple and it works well.

Secondly, I wanted to create something vibrant, bright and very different in character to the previous palettes. By doing so I am hoping to highlight that BlockPress can be useful for any kind of website, from professional portfolio to a Halloween party.

It's very satisfying to know that two of the themes are now compatible with all of the colour palettes.

Bug Fixing

Responsive Design

As we progressed developing new palettes and themes, the responsive design broke somewhere along the way. I looked up my responsive design utopian blog to find the correct commits. It was a useful reference to have. The problem is now solved.

Spelling Error

Our goofy spelling mistake has now been corrected. Fortunately Atom allows you to find and replace words across whole project folder so it was a matter of few clicks.

Hi, @dana-varahi, the original can't be accessed via Utopian.io and this one can, so it's probably better to swap them around (otherwise we need to wait for someone to fix it).

Hi, @amosbastian. Thanks for letting me know! I swapped them like you suggested. :)
