Octoflat

I have created my first Octopress theme today called Octoflat. The theme is inspired by flat design. It uses Twitter Bootstrap and Designmodo's Flat UI. All the colors chosen are the colors listed on Flat-UI's demo page.

Installing the theme

As a submodule

cd your_octopress_dir
git submodule add https://github.com/alexgaribay/octoflat .themes/octoflat
rake install['octoflat']
rake generate

Grabbing the latest updates as a module

cd your_octopress_dir
git submodule update

As a clone

cd your_octopress_dir
git clone https://github.com/alexgaribay/octoflat .themes/octoflat
rake install['octoflat']
rake generate

Configuring Navigation##

Add a navigation section to your _config.yml. Doing this allows the navbar to highlight the active page. Use the following format:

navigation:
- text: Home
  url: /index.html

Adding New Pages

Create new pages by using the following command:

rake new_page['new_page_name.md']

Go back to update your _config.yml file:

navigation:
- text: Home
  url: /index.html
- text: New Page Title
  url: /new_page_name.html

Pull Requests Welcome

I need help making the theme more customizable to the end user. So any help in doing so would be greatly appreciated. Any suggestions are welcome as well!
