If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Out friends from PremiumNewsTheme.com have rebranded themselves and relaunched today as WooThemes! The site and service that they have put together, a wordpress theme club, is an absolutely outstanding idea and I encourage you to check it out.

A collaborative effort by Adii, Magnus Jepson, Mark Forrester and Elliot Jay Stocks, I can only imagine what kind of success WooThemes is going to be. With some already great looking themes designed and out there, it is hard to think that they will be able to out do themselves and create something even better.

The concept of WooThemes is great also - you sign up and pay for three or six months membership and get access to any and all themes that are already available and then any that launch during your time as a member. Sounds good doesn’t it? The only better part is the reasonable price! A single user subscription will get you access to over 10 themes right away and more on the way, for only $150.00! Each theme was previously selling at $50+, so this is a great deal for you.

I sent a twitter out to @adii to find out what the hardest part of setting up and launching WooThemes was an his simple reply was “woothemes = blood, sweat, and tears” If you are looking for an indepth follow up on the process of launching WooThemes, keep an eye out on Adii’s site.

Congrats goes out to the guys for a successful launch today!

Finally upgraded to Wordpress 2.5!

Written by Chris on April 24, 2008 – 12:06 am -

Just a quick note for right now. After hearing so many other bloggers talk about upgrading to Wordpress 2.5 and what a wonderful change it was, I thought it was about time to do so for my sites too. So, over the last couple days I have slowly been uploading version 2.5 to my different sites and getting used to the new layout of the Admin area. And all I can say is that its….GREAT!

Compared to the previous versions, this is a HUGE step in the direction of simplicity, ease of use, and attractiveness.

If you have not upgraded to Wordpress 2.5, then I strongly suggest that you get on it. Not only will it make you feel better and possibly make you more productive, but it will save you from any security problems that were showing up in the previous versions.
