Well i have just been testing out the new k2 wordpress theme framework nightly release, and the recent changes that have been made to the framework are really nice, this can be seen over at my test are and demo area at demo.8bitdesign.co.uk.
The new nightly release add new columns and new widget placement for the theme which i really like, this allows new themes much more flexibility. I will wait until this is released before i stop updating any of my current themes.
Its looking very good, hopefully this will be in the next release.

The wordpress theme k2, which i use to power this blog and all of my websites has just been updated to 1.0. I have just installed the upgrade on this blog and i am impressed with all the fixed bugs and all of the enhanced features, check out the release over at the k2 website.
Also its worth a note since wordpress is also now up to 2.9 release, the new feature of post thumbnails is very interesting, this article is worth a read.
Well ive changed the style and theme of my blog, i thought a change was better. And this theme brings together my blog and lifestream in a much better way. Before i use to run a lifestream using sweetcron, but although it was nice to track all of my internet activities, it didnt really do anything functional. As i doubt anyone cared that it was there, so with this new theme i can combine my blog and lifestream.
Also i have chosen to simplfy my blog, as im finding less time to create new themes, and do other creating. Im too busy with working, playing sports or chilling out, website building or other creating is firmly on a back burner, well until my dissertation is out of the way.
I have just finished building my Aunt and Uncle a website for their apartment in the lake district, which they are renting out when they arent using it. The website i have built is very simple and is built using wordpress and the theme framework of k2, which i still strongly support even though development has pretty much stopped for the framework now which is a shame as it was reveloutionary when it was first released, it still is now to all extent.
The website i have enjoyed making and constructing although simple, it does look very good in my opnion and functions very well, the k2 feature of allowing to choose what is seen on each page is a very handy function as it allows for dynamic and changing image sidebars which are nice. Overall i like the design of the website as it does the job and nothing more, it doesnt need to be anymore fancy.

I have just finished my new wordpress theme called “Jackson” in honour of the great Micheal Jackson the legendary singer who passed away recently. The wordpress theme is quite simply, it is based on the stable framework called K2 which powers this blog. It has a simple header with a menu blended into the background and a simple colour scheme to match, simplistic is the key.
To install make sure that you are running the wordpress framework k2, and simply drop the folder jackson into you k2 styles folder within your wordpress theme directory. Active from the k2 options menu, and you new theme will be ready to go.
