There’s a plethora of great wordpress plugins online. It you have a few extra hours, you can search through the thousands, read their review, try them out and see if it will work for your wordpress blog.

Or, you can take a look at some of the useful reviews and tutorials my friend Lynette shares on her TechBasedMarketing.com/blog. She shares informative reviews, time saving computer tips and really helpful video tutorials.

Now, I’m a big fan of the WordPress platform and use it on several of my sites (including this one) and I appreciate useful, quality plugins – like the one Lynette explains in this tutorial below. It’s the Grab & Save plugin and I think you’ll agree that it really helps to expedite the whole blogging with photos process.

Have fun blogging!

WordPress Custom Theme Design

WordPress Custom Theme Design

[SinglePic not found] I’ve started designing my own custom themes for WordPress. Though I know HTML like the back of my hand, it’s only recently I’ve been feeling more comfortable with CSS, which is the design structure of WordPress. So creating these themes is new (for me!), fun and I plan to continue doing it, so I thought I’d make a formal post about it.

I like that I can control so many design elements through CSS and then include my own graphic design choices in the background and header, as in the example above which I created for my FromKarlyn.com website. It’s about time really. I’ve been using WordPress software for most of my sites for years now. I have enjoyed using many wonderful themes offered by other talented designers and always thought: “Someday…” Well someday is now, and over the last few weeks, I jumped in and started creating.

I plan to overhaul the look of all my own domains over time, but for now, I have most of them converted to some of my first custom designs. I created a Themes page so that I would have a designated area for sharing new theme designs and then, after a while.. offer them to others for use on their own websites and blogs.

That’s the plan anyway. If you have a chance, let me know what you think. Thanks!

Wonderful WordPress Update

Posted by on Dec 23, 2009 in Wordpress | 2 comments

I was just viewing Matt’s video about the latest (greatest) WordPress 2.9 upgrades. It’s wonderful! Well, yes, Matt’s video is very nice, but it’s the newest WordPress upgrade that really takes the cake. I had to share it with you, because, if you’re like me, you want to keep your software and it’s plugins updated. I do this diligently, but I don’t always know what it is I’m getting with the upgrades.. I figure there’s some typical bug fixes and small improvements with each new version. However, with 2.9 comes an impressive ensemble including mass plugin updating, restore features, basic image editing and more. You can see the full page of improvements here.
Just take a look!
