Everything updated. Again.

Theme updates for WordPress 2.5. Before 2.5 is released. New features include support for get_avatar() and the new options menu design scheme. More importantly, the updated themes now utilize wp_nonce_field() for the highest level of security.

Quiet before the storm

A very quick update with information on release candidates of all my themes, except the Sandbox, structured in bullet points and mostly comprising hyperlinks.

New versions all around

New project homes on Google Code for my themes (including Sandbox) means Subversion access for everyone concerned. Also, expect better Microformats support (i.e., hAtom and hCard) in the upcoming updates to my themes (yes, including Sandbox).

Theme competition

Another WordPress theme competition is announced. The last two flopped for various reasons. Running a theme competition is tough, but after what Thomas pulled off with the theme viewer, I think he’s up for it.

Throwing down the dev gauntlet

A challenge issued to WordPress theme developers: create an original “innovative and interesting” theme. David at Blogging Pro says he’s tired of old themes being rehashed and is ready for something new. And I wonder if that has something to do with the broadening of the WordPress community.
