Supermini showcase

A few months ago I re-released Supermini, a simple Wordpress theme. After some time I started running across the first sites actually using it and, like every other theme, Supermini was personalized by everyone who used it. However since Supermini is such a simple and basic theme, minor changes make a big difference. I found that a lot of these changes looked great. Here are some of them.

SuperMini wordpress theme update

I just uploaded an updated version of the SuperMini Wordpress theme. If you encounter any bugs, feel free to tell me

You can check it out at ikDicht.

Oh and while I’m at it: Removing the footer links to Patrick and me is totally uncool… Because some people still do that in 2009.

“World in Motion” Theme

First off: Wow, it has been really quiet up here during the past weeks…
School kept me pretty busy in the last couple of weeks. Tonight is actually the first night in weeks that I’ve spent working only on personal projects.

If you’re reading this, then you have undoubtedly noticed some changes on my blog (to all my fellow RSS readers: feel free to check out the site. It’s worth it ). I created this theme myself, and to be honest: it’s my first real attempt at a Wordpress theme. I had to build a blog design for a school assignment, so I figured: “What the hell, let’s just create something cool!” and this is what I came up with.

I’ve tested it on the following browsers, and fixed most bugs and differences.

• IE6 (Win XP)
• IE7 (Win XP)
• IE8 (Windows Seven beta)
• Firefox 3 (OSX & Win XP)
• Safari 3 (OSX)

If I overlooked something anyway, feel free to tell me so.
And please: do tell me what you think of the theme. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this!

Wordpress Theme SuperMini reloaded

A long time ago Smashing Magazine listed 100 of the best Wordpress themes. That list totally kicked ass to be honest. At one point I decided to restyle my poetry site. I took a look at their list and when I found the SuperMini theme, my choice was immediately made.

After I downloaded the theme I realized a lot of features were missing: No searchbox, no searchresults page, no archives, no global archives, no blogroll support, no pages support, no 404 pages and a few design flaws…

I actually went on, and built those things myself. Later on I wanted to contact the orginal author (Patrick Behrend) of the theme to send him my updates but by the time I got to send my mail, his site was down and he completely dissappeared from the web. I never received an aswer regarding the theme updates I sent him.

By now the original download isn’t even online anymore, and Smashing Magazine disabled the link to the SuperMini theme (as it is a 404). So I recently decided to finish the theme, and translate it back to English and re-publish it. I thought the initial theme was awesome, and I figured it would be cool if other people would be able to actually use the completed theme. Read the rest of this entry »

Blog updated

Ik ben zonet klaar met mijn blog te updaten. Alvast voor even, er zijn nog ditjes en datjes die niet helemaal in orde zijn.

Vanaf nu draait deze blog ook weer op de nieuwste versie van Wordpress (2.5.1) (Voor hoeveel wedden we dat er binnen de eerste 2 weken een nieuwe Wordpress update is?). Ik had problemen om mijn vorige thema volledig werkend hier te krijgen, dus ik moest afstappen van dat thema. Het leek me een goed idee om dan eens na te denken over iets volwassener. Ik besloot om een erg clean, en simpel thema te kiezen. Ik heb dus gekozen voor K2, waar ik heel wat minieme details in de CSS heb aangepast.

De header is niet zelf ontworpen, maar geplukt van Interfacelift.com. Daar zal ik later wel eens verandering in brengen.

Ik heb ondertussen ook eens mijn categorieën opgeruimd en de tags ingevuld.
Wordpress 2.5 bevalt me wel, net zoals het huidige thema. Ik hoop dat jullie het ook ook wat leuk vinden zoals het nu is. Laat vooral weten wat jij ervan vindt
