Whoa! I didn’t know wordpress got updated until I read your blog. Goodness. It may take me ages to install the update manns. Haha. Sure it would be great if I can ask you when I problems in future.

Awww, new layout! You do plan ahead, very ahead, don’t you? March 2006!

The butterfly looks good, it has a slightly different colour scheme than the rest, which makes it stand out more, I think. Haha, the custom-font titles look good, too. I’ve always wanted to use that plugin, but I need to wait for a new layout to sprout first.

I don’t particularly feel like messing with wordpress files right now, particularly if it’s not a solid release. ^^; It sounds good, though, the 2.0 version.

Ah, I just came across a spell checker plugin hours ago. (I don’t have any need for it though, since I have Dreamweaver to check for me.) I think it’s from the maker of the Image Headlines plugin, too. Lemme see… http://www.coldforged.org/plugins/ Yeah, down the page a little bit.

And I used PHPExec at first too, but it had some odd line and paragraph breaks near HTML comments, so I switched to RunPHP. Very nice.

Lovely work on the layout, again!

Thanks Aneesah. So far, there hasn’t been any problems on mine yet, thankfully. I’ve used that spell plugin before but it didn’t work on version 1.5.x and 2.0. Ya, I’ve the same problem with PHPEXEC too. RUNPHP don’t work in version 2.0 though, only EXECPHP works.

WordPress 2.0 is out already? That’s fast. But I doubt I will upgrade yet until I receive some positive feedback about the new version. Got to ‘test the waters first’. Heh.

And I noticed the butterflies on the left bar. They look lovely.

Hmm my dashboard loads quite quickly for me. Maybe try refreshing it a few times and see how it goes? As for wp-grins, try the fix from here: http://comox.textdrive.com/pipermail/wp-testers/2005-November/000555.html. Worked for me.

Did that, but it’s still very slow. Currently it take about 240 seconds to load which is a few minutes. Thanks for the link Valerie, it’s working great now, got the smilies back in the admin panel.

Wow thanks for the comment that means a lot from such a great webdesigner as you! I really love your creativty with your site and the layout is just gorgeous! I really like the new butterfly its very very cute! But is WP 2.0 worth upgrading to Im kinda scared to because I just figured out how to work this one?

I’m waiting for a beta release before upgrading to WP 2. so how do you find it? does smart archives work in WP 2?

Reply to Nadine:

It’s pretty good, I think it’s much better than the previous version just that the dashboard thing is bugging me. Yes, smart archives work in WordPress 2.0 too, I’m using that now as I find it better than my previous one. you may want to check out the plugin compatibility list in the Codex
