Wordpress.org releases 2.2.1 and im using an outdated version.. An upgrade is necessary but im too lazy!!! Arghhh.. maybe I should do some renovations coz this sidebar >>>> is getting cluttered and my categories listing sucks. So might as well give it another refreshing upgrade. At first I thought I might as well change the theme but after a lot of thinking, i might just need to change the header image or something. (since looking for a decent theme is a pain in the a$$) btw I found a nice theme here (the theme I would use if K2 broke with the new wordpress)
After the upgrade, as you guys might have guessed, K2 template broke. So this is my new look thanks to NDesign Studio. I changed the background to a batik pattern in conjunction with our 50th anniversary. Merdeka!! Beside some minor hiccups, the upgrade is smooth and quick. The color goes well with my favorite color (light blue) so i’m very satisfied with the color scheme. Improve some ads placement so it wont disturb you much. Next, I need to re implement some ajax and custom javascript from K2 to give back the web2.0 feel and add more local element to the design(i’m in love with batik). So while i’m on it, if you have any suggestions please leave a comment.

I’ve gotta stop upgrading and changing themes as frequent as this to avoid hysteria among my readers. Still, WordPress 2.3 is too hard to resist! >.< which also proves that I’m such a geek(correct me if I’m wrong). The best part about 2.3 is its tagging system. It will be a great function and will definitely break some themes and plugins. Thankfully WordPress 2.3 includes a sexy plugin update notifier to cover that up. How about themes guys?
The theme I’m using now is a my modified version Black Minimalism 2.0 by cinexl.net. The theme was originally built on K2 and optimized with Ultimate Tag Warrior plugin to deliver the tags. The best part is, it is Widget-Ready unlike any other version or variation of K2(K2 have their own widget-like function and i personally think its better that the Widget). Hacking the theme to work for WordPress 2.3 wasn’t that hard given their original support for tags. (more…)
Just feel like it. Plus some of my friends are using similar theme from my last one. This is a nice theme, customized to fill my Jeanophile. The damn header takes 3 hours from me alone. Hang on for more customization. Muahahha
