Release of Dinah

Another thing that happened on Wednesday was the release of a new WordPress update, this time it had a name, Dinah. WordPress 4.1 came with the theme Twentyfifteen, which you can now spot on this site. Pretty smooth isn’t it? Not that different from my last one, but the sidebar switched sides.

Also I’m going to try to add featured images to some of the posts, and clean up some of the old plugins I’ve had from the beginning. Such as the NextGen Gallery, it’s probably good, but it’s outdated on my blog and the old images and galleries are not working :\

Edit: Feature image has now been edited. NextGen Gallery has to wait till tomorrow or some other day. I’ve also added the title above the feature image, if it’s there. Pretty pleased with what I’ve managed. It’s a long time since I’ve worked with themes in WordPress.

See the preview page of my theme after the jump.

One day with new phone

I’ve been using my new phone for about 24 hours now. Guess I can say something about it. As a phone it works okey, it ruined my contact list, so need to fix that. Sadly I can’t connect it to my computer, probably because I’m running Windows 7 64-bit. That sucks. I have also downloaded some program to it. Two TD (tower defense) games, always fun. A new program for sms handling, my brother says it’s much better then the original one. Guess I just have to trust him. Of course I downloaded Opera, as that is the only browser out there. I also needed a twitter client and a tool for taking notes. For now I’m pretty pleased with what I have, hopefully I’ll get better at writing with the touchscreen, just need some more practice. I also downloaded a WordPress tool for bloging, going to try that one out later this week!

In other news about my life, I got two cool toys from a friend as a late Christmas present. Will fit nicely with my other toys. They are even in the same family as Name!

Guess that all for tonight. I’m pretty sure I thought about something more to blog about before I start writing this post, but maybe not. Good night! Blog you all tomorrow.

We play endlessly

Got my latest addition to my Sigur Rós collection today. The “We play endlessly” album, which is a collection given away free with the “The Independent”. The nine songs are picked from three different album, “Takk”, “Heima” and “með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust”. Listening to it now, and it’s a good collection. The funny thing is that I bought this CD, and on the back side it says “NOT FOR SALE”. We’ll, guess I did something illegal there. Three times I did, because I got this from ebay, and I had four different bids on four different actuion. And I won three of them. So still waiting for the two others. Hopefully coming this week. I’m also waiting on the latest album from Imogen Heap! Please come tomorrow!

On another occasion. I’ve been reading my brothers “Computer Arts” magazine, and I found a very easy “copy & paste” tutorial about how to make your own WordPress theme from a static HTML & CSS site! How cool isn’t that? So now I’m beginning to think about making a new theme. Making a new theme for my blog, is something I’ve been talking about very often. So don’t hold your breath, don’t even bet about me getting a theme done in the next month. But maybe if we’re lucky I’ll make a new Christmas theme. Can’t use this green one when the snow starts to fall!
