Decided to spend some time on this blog and made a few changes I’ve been wanting to. I was browsing for another theme but at the end, I still like this one (Color Paper) best, despite some of the issues that ticked me off occasionally.
I addressed some of them today and it’s much more to my satisfaction now. Though it seems I may want to style the Search box as well.

Knowing logically that websites can be infected with virus and reading a blog engine developer’s lengthy advice to upgrade the blog engine you are using to prevent getting infected with a worm is quite different. Nowadays malware are everywhere. 
Good thing is my blog and webbies are up to date. If you or somebody you know is using a WordPress version that has not patched the security vulnerability, heed Matt’s advice.
I used the Silk WordPress admin menu icon set with Tangofy plugin because I didn’t like the monochromatic icons, but I didn’t particularly like the whole of that or any of the other sets. So yesterday when I was playing with the custom taxonomy thing for Drache’s test site, I got side-tracked and modified the admin icons into a set that I like. This is the result, Rainbox Mix.
Source : WordPress 2.7, named Coltrane is officially released.
I’ve upgraded up to this version a few days ago and so far things have been smooth. In fact so smooth that I’m considering making and modifying some plugins and themes. That is, before I clear the list of things I want done to my current setup.
Woot! WordPress 2.7 Release Candidate 1 is up! I’ve been trying out the nightly builds and watched as things changed and very happy with how things are now, especially the icons and how the quick management of post and page will show on mouse-over now instead of all the time previously.
Can’t wait for the official version to be out. It’ll be great, I know it. 
Apathetic Moon officially goes live and replaces Silent Ice Moon v.2 as my blog! ^^ It’s going to be a lot more lighthearted since I am locking up all the old old posts in which I angst and emo in. There are still a few things missing and a lot I want to add, but I’ll get to adding them when Wordpress 2.7 comes. And setting up multi-blog for my sites. That is, if it doesn’t get me to spend less time on NaNoWriMo. ;_;
Slated to be released on 10th November 2008, this is the must-upgrade version for me, since this one is going to have left-hand navigation, personalize-able admin pages, sticky posts and new options for the plugin feature. It’s basically going to be THE WordPress I’m looking forward to.
How I know? From this review.
I’m actually contemplating combining Apathetic Moon and LunaDream (and if possible, Drache too) so that they run from one single WordPress installation and be able to customize them individually. In short, what some calls ‘multiblog’. But to do it by WordPress MU sounds like using Thor’s hammer for a tiny nail, and possibility quite restrictive, so I’m checking out some of the hacks/plugins for this.
Nerdaphernalia and WP-Hive are looking pretty good right now.
If I’m going to do this, then I’ll probably have to do it by the end of October, way before 2.7 is out, because NaNoWriMo will have started by then and I want to devote my attention to writing that instead of worrying about this.
