Upgrade; new pics

Well, the going to bed at 6:30 business didn’t work out quite as well as I wanted. I woke up at around 12:15, took more meds and tried to get back to sleep. No luck. I got up at 12:30.

It’s now 6:35 AM and almost time to get ready for work. I did take a 2 hour nap between 3 and 5-ish. I am not fully rested, but am way ahead of where I was yesterday.

I just finished upgrading the blog to WordPress 2.5. I also removed the rest of the default Cutline images and added several more of my own. I now have 18 header images, all of which were taken by me. I have a lot more images prepped but need to figure out how I’ll attribute them as they are by others.

I really like the Cutline theme and Chris Pearson is most generous with his time and dispenses lots of helpful guidance in a gracious manner. If you use WordPress and want to use a theme and make changes to it, but are worried your php/CSS/XHTML/… skills may not be up to it, any theme by Chris Pearson is a good one. Cutline has its own blog where those of us using it get to interact with the designer. Not only does he add posts about things one can do with the theme, take a look at the comments to see how much interaction goes on between the designer and users.

Chris Pearson is near the top of my list of what I’m thankful for this year! While a blog theme may be a small thing in the cosmos, his involvement with us users in not. Thank you, Chris!
