Themes: CLI = cool
Command Line Interfaces are just plain cool. GUIs are for wimps! This theme turns your blog into an old Commodore 64 running a CLI, user friendly it ain’t. If I need to explain why you’d want to use this, you don’t want to use this.
If you are thinking, ‘yeah thats sweet, but the C64 was [...]
plugins: MC Hammer Hello Dolly
Following my slightly pointless earlier post about modding Hello Dolly I’ve finally gotten around to completing the first of many (likely) mods.
Thats right, MC Hammer, U Can’t Touch This (lyrics from metrolyrics). Sometimes a guy just needs to be cheered up in a non obvious way.
I really want to see what everyone else has done [...]
speedlink: photoshop & technorati update
2 unrelated topics in this post - way to live life on the edge of the blogging rules huh!.
For budding theme designers new (or new-ish) to photoshop this lifehacker article has some interesting links. I just wasted an hour playing with plugins. I feel the urge to change my template and add some texture.

If you run one on your blog, built [...]

themes: girly, pink and pixelart
Pixelart is tough. Buy joyous when it works! Usually it looks like lego, or starwars. That, I think, is because guy nerds make most of it. This theme is all the better because it takes a totally girly approach. I mean seriously, ribbons?!?!
The usual downloads, previews, etc… are all here. Have a rummage around [...]
Wordpress guy is one month old
This blog has been up and running for one month now. The first post went live on 21st March 2007, following a couple of days of ‘Hello World’, technorati claim posts, and theme tinkering. I thought now would be a good time to thank everyone who has been so encouraging along the way, and [...]
