Using Blogzilla

• Activating the theme
• Title and tagline (leave tagline blank to remove it from the header)
• Adding/changing a custom header image
• Header image specs (size, transparency)
• Choosing a color scheme
• Showing/Hiding authors
• Filling out your author profile
• Adding/changing a navigation menu
• Sidebar widgets (leave the secondary sidebar blank to remove it)
• Making a child theme
• Localizing the theme (different from translating content... l10n at the theme level handles UI strings like comment form labels, "Posted by", etc)

• Universal social sharing
• Custom favicon?
