First of all, I’d like to thank everyone reading this blog for a successful first week.  We’ll be posting more promo codes on Twitter and Facebook, and we can’t wait to see our affiliate badges start popping up around the ‘Net.  Keep an eye out in those places and maybe bookmark #MuseumThemes to keep up-to-date… (read more)

Seek and ye shall find… I’ve been interested in attending a WordCamp for a long time.  More so after I saw Matt’s keynote at WordCamp SF.  I’ve been casually looking for a Salt Lake City or Utah WordCamp ever since I stumbled upon the whole WordCamp concept and found that there was one coming up […]

So now that Museum Themes is up, WordPress 3.0 is out, and web fonts have made huge strides in browser-integration, I’m thinking about redesigning jazzsequence.com.  Again. Okay, yes, I am fully frakking aware that I redesign my site more frequently than a hooker gets checked for STDs, and even the Browncoat theme lasted longer than the current […]

this little functions.php hack makes me all giddy… use this to rebrand your WordPress back-end with your own logo: //hook the administrative header output add_action(‘admin_head’, ‘my_custom_logo’); function my_custom_logo() { echo ‘ <style type=”text/css”> #header-logo { background-image: url(‘.get_bloginfo(‘template_directory’).’/images/custom-logo.gif) !important; } </style> ‘; } and here’s what it would look like in action: by default, the WP […]

Recently, there was a malicious attack on GoDaddy-hosted sites. It’s tough to track down the exact date of the original attack — I was first able to find a mention of it on Slashdot from 4/26, and I found a topic in the WordPress support forums that supported that approximate time. However, I also found […]

This is a story about a site redesign.  The site was for the mother of a client we’ve worked with on other projects.  It was a kind of site we don’t normally do, but we took the gig because it was a referral and someone we know and like working with.  The original site was […]

If you haven’t upgraded your WordPress blog to 2.9 (actually 2.9.1 as of the time of this writing), you should.  With the 2.9 update, the people at WP have implemented a feature that I’ve been pining for for some time.  The only problem is it’s not where you’d think it might be. If you do […]

every week i look at the analytics for google traffic to arcanepalette.com and every week it’s clear there’s a market that i need to work on that i’m failing to meet: steampunk blog design. there isn’t much out there, and what i personally have found sucks, and because we have this, which has a couple […]

this theme is one that i ran on a fake news site that was part of a RPG erin and i were running over the summer based on a novel we were/are working on.  the name of the news site was The Harbinger and it specialized in reporting news relevant to the vampire/werewolf underworld.  the […]

this one will make the internet marketing peeps smile… let’s say you have some kind of text or phrase that you use a lot.  it could be anything, but let’s — for the sake of argument, and for showing the full power of this code — assume that the text or phrase includes a link. […]
