Farms 100 Big Ones Theme Pack
2008-05-07 21:01:00 Farms 100 Big Ones Theme Pack : Download this 100 WordPress themes zip file (17MB) and upload them to your blog to have 100 themes to play around with. Many of these themes are older but they are all widgetized, have a bunch of bug fixes, are internationalized, work on both WordPress and WordPress Mu and they have been time tested on Edublogs. I normally would not suggest that users download themes from sources other than the original theme authors’ site, but this is offered from a trusted source and the convenience of a single zip file added to the additional testing and bug fixing performed by Edublogs, is the icing on the cake.

Dark Themes are Back
2008-05-07 19:12:00 Copyright © 2008 Free WordPress Themes Blog. Visit the original article at http://www.freewordpressthemes.com/blog/b log-design/dark-themes-are-back/. We recently had a design overhaul for Study Driving, formerly a personal site of mine, which Splashpress Media acquired. As with a host of other blogs in the network, Study Driving was redesigned by my fellow contributor here, Ia Lucero. When we were conceptualizing the design, I was initially thinking of something with lots of red, to symbolize that speed look (usually attributed to driving). But I let Ia have a free hand at what she would do with the site. And so the result: something bold, but in a subdued kind of way. Presenting the new Study Driving: It’s bold because of the use of the stylized automobile on the header. And the use of the checkered pattern reminds one of either a checkered flag or carbon fibre–of course, both associated with motorsports. The site is subdued, meanwhile, because of the heavy use of m... More About: Dark , Back
To Cache or Not to Cache?
2008-05-07 16:02:00 If you’re running your blog from a hosted platform, such as wordpress.com, Typepad or Blogger, you probably don’t have to worry about database (and/or PHP) servers choking and bandwidth running out. For folks who run blogs on their own hosting accounts or servers, this is a possibility. Yet then again, for the average blogger bandwidth and server resources shouldn’t be an issue. Even the most inexpensive hosting account on most providers these days can give enough for most folks (some hosting providers I can point to are our very own Colorteck and one of our sponsors, Cirtex). This only becomes a big concern when you become really popular or when you get rare DIGG or Slashdot-effect traffic spikes. Or perhaps your server is a bit low on resources, and is serving up your site slowly. To address these, you can use caching plugins. We have been using several caching plugins on some of our bigger blogs like the Blog Herald and Forever Geek. Not only are traffic levels ... More About: Cache
Meet Your Commenters WordPress Plugin
2008-05-07 15:06:00 As bloggers we all love to get as many comments as we can. After all, having an active community of commenters gives us a sense of achievement. With the Meet Your Commenters Plugin you can now connect even more with the people who comment on your blog by showing you some “insider” information within your dashboard about them. The Plugin works with the help of the Google Social Graph API. When visitors leave a comment on your site they leave more info than you think and with the help of this Plugin you can connect through social networks where information is provided all through your dashboard. As you can see from the screen shot above, with each name are some links that lead to that persons social network profiles. This makes it incredible easy to connect with them as all you have to do is click on the link and follow or join their network. Just download the zip file by going to the developers page and follow the instructions outlined. Read it at the source ShareThis More About: Wordpress

A Unique Monotone
2008-05-06 23:56:00 While Matt Mullenweg attended the Web 2.0 Expo in San Francisco just a few weeks ago, he previewed a new theme which looks like might be the perfect WordPress theme for photographers called Monotone. Monotone was developed by Noel Jackson and is a very unique theme in that, the color scheme changes based on the photograph being displayed. Here are two screenshots showcasing the theme in action with two different photographs. Monotone takes the first image attached to a post and samples colors from it for use in the surrounding layout. Each post needs to contain one image, and optionally, any text you want. The theme does the rest, pulling colors out of and resizing the images for use in the design. You can use the visual or the HTML editor in wordpress to input your image and supporting text. One of the only problems I’ve seen with the Monotone theme is that, sometimes the link colors blend in with the background making them difficult to see. Other than that, some of the pho...

SEO For WordPress: Part 1
2008-05-06 22:59:00 By Sumesh from Blog Creativity, a blog about blogging tips, usability in design, SEO and WordPress (theme/plugin reviews, hacks and WordPress optimization). WordPress is often praised for its inherent SEO capabilities. The option to use post slugs, clean and valid xHTML (mostly) etc. are some of the reasons for the praise. However, anyone who inspects a WordPress theme closely will notice that there are several dozen weak points in WordPress themes (in the default theme, freely available themes and even paid themes). Some of these are caused by WordPress core functions (which were developed 5 years ago, since when SEO has evolved), while others are due to designers not willing to brave the choppy waters of SEO experimentation. Modifying the core functions require extensive hacking (which can be done with proper tutorials), but the changes will be erased during WordPress upgrades. So, the subject of this post shall be mostly about those mistakes caused by faulty theme coding. In this... More About: Wordpress , Part
WordPress Talk - May 6, 2008

5 Questions For A Theme Make-Over Magic
2008-05-06 12:36:00 Do you ever feel like you need a make-over design on your blog? You know, the whole deal with all the trimmings? I do right now and spent hours in the past month to find the perfect theme to do it. I had a clear vision of what I wanted and while I saw several themes that offered parts of that whole picture, it was never exactly what I wanted. Until… I found it. Finally. Task accomplished. Next. Well, not really, the fun has only just started A theme make over takes a lot of planning and ideas for it to come out in a satisfactory manner in the end. Admittedly we can just slap on a free theme and leave it at that. While that works for many, it never has for me. I do like the idea of free, but I also understand that by running a business, we have to spend money on branding and other business expenses. Having the right blog theme for our business is part of the branding process and one that should never be underestimated. And while I was happy with my theme in the past, I no longe...

Blogging For Creativity Purposes
2008-05-01 12:43:00 This post was written by Monika Mundell When we talk about blogging in the circles we step, this often involves a blog that has been created to make money for the blogger itself. Since this is way easier said than done, many bloggers get discouraged by the whole process and stop altogether. What a pity, since these bloggers could get so much more out of their blogging by using a blog as a creative tool. Since when has blogging become a drag? Seriously, I see it more often than not that bloggers lack inspiration because of the social pressures we put onto ourselves. We stress about traffic, page rank, content, ads and god knows what else, instead of using a natural approach and just go with the flow. I am convinced that if we let our blog evolve naturally, it will become a much bigger force in the future. Plus we still have fun blogging. Putting pressure onto us is never going to cut it for the long term. So how do you blog creatively? How about blogging about your journey in life? Y... More About: Blogging , Creativity

Take Crontrol Of WordPress
2008-05-01 10:57:00 Not too long ago, a new plugin was released called WP-Crontrol. WP-Crontrol allows you to take control over what is happening in the WP-Cron system. WP-Cron is a tangle of black magic that allows a plugin developer or a user to schedule commands to be executed. WP-Crontrol is a plugin that lets a blog owner see through that magic and figure out what’s actually going on If you want a detailed introduction to this plugin as well as an explanation as to how to use this plugin in conjunction with WP Database Backup to create backups when you want them, be sure to check out this article: Add a new WordPress backup schedule with WP-Crontrol Also on the radar today is a quick fix for the WordPress 2.5.x image uploader. Awsom.org is reporting that there is a no-flash plugin that is available which returns the previous image upload function from earlier versions of WordPress.
