  • Why we need standards support in HTML email

    Why we need standards support in HTML email. Well said. Count me in.

    Paypal updates branding, buttons.

  • Snitter

    Get Snitter. Use Twitter, but looking for a viable desktop app on the PC? Look no further than the Snitter AIR. Nicely done, Snook.

  • WP Theme: Gray Day

    WP Theme: Gray Day. Forgot to mention that Patrick, a friend and coworker, released his first WordPress theme – Gray Day – last week. I really love the use of cyan with the gray in this theme. It’s definitely worth checking out.

  • WordPress 2.3 Beta 2

    WordPress 2.3 Beta 2. According to the development team, a new beta will be released every Monday leading up to September 24th, when the final release of WordPress 2.3 will be made.

  • Effercio Blue

    Information on this theme can now be found on this dedicated page: Themes > Effercio. This post will no longer be updated.

    Well, the time is here. As promised yesterday, I’m releasing Effercio Blue into the wild. You can snag it here:

    A demo of the site can be found here.

    Obviously, I’m expecting there to be issues. If you happen to find any that make the theme unusable for you, please let me know.

    The theme includes:

    • Support for WordPress Tags (a new feature in WordPress 2.3)
    • Support for Dynamic Sidebar and Widgets
    • Custom Link and Archive Page Styles
    • Inline Asides*

    If you’re wondering what the rationale behind the name is… effercio is Latin for “stuff”, and that’s what my site’s all about… Anyway, I hope you enjoy the theme! Let me know what you think!

    Addendum

    • (10.05.07) – Added Effercio Blue to FreeWordpressThemes.com
    • (10.03.07) – Released 1.0.1. Fixed issue in header.php where Home link was not working properly.
    • (10.02.07) – Effercio Blue was featured on Weblog Tools Collection.
    • (09.05.07) – Inline Asides can be enabled by creating a category called ‘Asides’. The logic’s already in place on index.php to handle the special formatting for it. If you do add it, you’ll simply need to make one (OPTIONAL) modification to your sidebar.php file. (It hides Asides from the category list.) I use Asides to post links that I wouldn’t normally do a full post on.

      <?php wp_list_categories('title_li=&show_count=0&exclude=ASIDECATEGORYID'); ?>

    Enjoy!
