Floral day, the scrapbook theme

After Entrecard theme, SimplyWP came out with a totally different theme which called Floral Day (I’m not good in naming), a scrapbook theme. It’s a free wordpress theme anyway.

It was my first attempt to design a theme with scrapbook material. Much thanks to Shabby Princess for the materials. I like handmade stuff very much and start to have interest in scrapbook not long ago.

The ‘poem’ man (the boyfriend) said,”Why do you like to do weird theme that is not easy to code?” That’s the problem when you know how to design but have no idea about coding, which in the end will make the coding man wants to bang his head to the Macbook. But, he managed to code it and the theme works well in IE7, Firefox 3 and Safari.

Few days ago when I was chatting with the boyfriend, suddenly he said that he wanted to create an entrecard theme for wordpress. Oh well, we’ve seen wordpress admin theme, facebook theme, digg theme, so why not entrecard?

And, here it is, Entrecard theme from SimplyWP. It is tested on IE7, Firefox 3, and Safari.

Early morning on the weekend

Last night when my mum read the newspaper, she saw the black out announcement from PLN. It was said that the black out will start today from 8am to 4pm and our housing area was in the list too. So, learning from the quote - prepare umbrella before raining, I quickly finish my work last night, woke up early since I couldn’t sleep also, checked my email early morning, turned off my computer after that and watched morning news on TV.

Wait and wait. It was 8.05am and nothing happened. Still waiting. 8.30am, nothing happened also. Bah. Don’t care, let’s just turn on the computer and continue doing my work. I’m ready to click CTRL + S every single seconds in case the black out happens anytime.

Anyway, there is a more exciting weekend news. SimplyWP has launched its first free wordpress theme - Starlite Diva! Head off to SimplyWP for the theme’s demo and download. More wp themes will come later.

Upgrade to Wordpress 2.6

Gee.. I wonder why they gotta come out with the upgrade so often. Alright, I know, for the security, for a better performance and yada yada yada. I haven’t even had the time to upgrade my Wordpress to 2.5 and voila, there is 2.6 already. -__-”

Thanks to my webmaster (the boyfriend) that helped me to manually upgraded it. Yes, mine is so unlucky that it needed a manual upgrade. But, it’s over now. I’m happily changing to wordpress 2.6. I am missing 2.3 interface though. With 2.5 on my other blog, I always click on the ’save’ while what I want is actually the ‘publish’ button.

Duh.. the 4 hours black out has ruined my mood for Monday. But wait, I see the word count function under save and publish button. There goes the day of using add on to count words from Firefox or paste the words into Ms.Word. This made up my day~!

Got the wordpress theme

I just received the wp premium theme - Elegants Blubs from Blog Perfume 2 hours ago. I have 120 hours to download the theme before it expired. Without waiting no more, I downloaded the wordpress theme as soon as I read the email.

The boyfriend asked me of why I joined the contest, while we can design and code it ourselves. Oh well, what I want is the excitement of winning something. It is a premium theme that cost money to buy after all and I got it for free. How not to be exciting? Big thanks to Chiq from wpthemedesigner.com who run this premium wordpress theme contest and all of the kind-heart sponsors.

I am thinking of using it for my other blog - Medan Daily or for another new blog that is more girlie and soft. Hm.. The whole theme could suit for a Mom consulting blog too. Maybe I can ask my Mom to start blogging too.
