Sponsored themes. Well now…

I’ll try to keep this brief as I’m sure the debate is hitting overload for everyone. , and I have to say, I agree with him on most points. If you read one paragraph about sponsored themes, make it this one from Matt:
“Finally many of these themes try to legally disallow you from removing the […]

themes: itheme

If you managed to resist the iphone theme, but own a mac, then this may be for you. The right hand sidebar is user rearrangable. Fully widgetted, and drag and droppable for the reader, this should be an interesting theme to try out.

When you rearrange the sidebar it stays how you set it as […]

opinion : licensing and / or protecting your blog

A couple of things have happened over the past couple of days to make me think about the licensing of this site.
Firstly I’d like to thank Aaron and Scot for letting me know about this site, which is republishing everything posted here. Word for word. Using my work doesn’t bother me, I’m here to draw […]

plugins: wordpress productivity

I love the part in Mary Poppins where the father of the house is timing himself doing up the buttons on his waistcoat to see if top to bottom was quicker than bottom to top. I think it was Mary Poppins…

Themes: cleanly different Capri 1.0

This theme provides, in my opinion, a very strong base for successful modest customisation (or pimpin‘).

Some themes are just too distinct, and can be spotted a mile off, like Misty or Kubrik, even when they get a new colour scheme and header image. This theme would give a very different feel with such changes, and […]

Sometimes the sidebar will wrap below the main column, rather to the side, because […]

theme: fresco by milienzo.com

This theme works for me on a couple of levels. Firstly it’s a nicely flexible, colourful, uncluttered theme.

Secondly, I like the way the theme got released, from the designers blog:
I have had lots of positive feedback and one or two people have emailed me asking if they could use my WordPress theme.
The style and branding […]

theme: Sakura floral wordpress theme by area381

This theme reminds me of a duvet cover I once saw in John Lewis.

I can also see it being used for a guys personal blog. It’s kind of the equivalent of those stupid pink floral shirts we wear occassionally to prove that we’re comfortable with our feminine side (or is that just me?).
The developers […]
