Working on a new site for work, will take reviews if you have them. This site is only running right now in FF or chrome, so don’t report IE errors, I know they are there.

As you can see I’m taking a pretty big departure from http://www.youraddressmagazine.com with this, and I’m moving from drupal to wordpress. While drupal is sort of nice, I found it to be too unfinished for anyone besides me to use. I tried to train a couple people on it and it just wasn’t working. Wordpress is simple, I can get a site up and running in ten minutes, have it skinned in a day and there is practically no training required. Unlike the other tips and techniques you have to teach to work drupal’s system I’m hoping to just drop people in and let them run with it. 

That was the original point of the site, to be updated by more than just me so maybe I can take webmaster out of my title after this . 

Known issues : - IE (stated above) - Navigation is terrible (the hierarchy makes no sense) - the calendar is broke

Thanks!

That theme I built for UT Austin just got rejected by the University Office of Trademark & LIcensing. Honestly, I think a big deal was just not understanding exactly what the software (Free, open source) or the purpose (being a fan) was. It isn’t intended to make money so I thought it had a chance of getting through. I was referenced to stardock.com (the makers of windows blinds) because apparently has a deal with them to make desktop themes. Not the same thing. A free tiny download on an open source browser as opposed to a packaged software requiring purchase and purchase of the additional theme.

Anyways, the theme was up to 700 total downloads and 400 daily users which is a ridiculous number for being in the sandbox at mozilla, the other sandbox items have like 10 , 15 total downloads.

So, before I bury it, does anyone know of any sort of fair-use something or other that allows for the recreation of the image if there is no profit from it? If not, then you will be able to find the theme on this site for the forseeable future but installation isn’t as easy so it will eventually die.

I think this is the final version of that poster I showed last week.

This poster I would guess is halfway done. It is using the same idea that I had for the wallpaper I posted last week, but then goes in a completely different direction. Really want some criticisms of this one, its a different realm of graphic design I haven’t touched before so I still haven’t decided exactly where it is headed.

The high res version is about 20×36 inches, so almost normal poster size. Below is a 3000px wide version.

I’m an idiot, and even though I have done it a thousand times I designed this at 3200×2400 instead of 3200 x 1200. So, you dual monitors out there are in trouble. The monster size below , along with a 1600. Maybe some day I will rework it into dual, for now, suck it up.

Welcome to the Theme center….

I discontinued the code-dreamer theme for now… just no time to work on it or improve and since it wasn’t stable enough to release I pulled it. The UT longhorns theme however, is at version 1.0 and can be run on FF 3. XP is the only tested platform but it is close to working on the others as well. Feel free to comment tand let me know what you think .

Thanks
