A big thank you to Penny and all the folks over at WP-Premiums.

All Shiny And New

We are proud to introduce the brand, spankin’ new Float:Right Media. Our old design was looking quite worn, dated and tired and we wanted a much cleaner interface and a better way of showcasing our work. So after about 10 mockups, 100 crazy ideas that never made it past the scratch pad, 15 color schemes that were too bold, too plain or just too wrong, we finally settled on what you now see…a crisp, clean, nicely colored and sharp all new Float:Right Media using Brian Gardner’s Revolution Pro Media Theme.

Much like the auto mechanic, who’s car is the last to get fixed or the painter, whose house needs painting, the web designer’s website is always the last to receive the attention it needs. But we finally just parked it in front of our glorious LCD monitor and chugged through and are proud to present the final product (save for a few tweaks here and there).

And oh yeah….built on Wordpress, of course.

Revolution Theme: Real Estate

My favorite Wordpress theme developer, Brian Gardner has just released his latest premium theme in his Revolution Theme series, this one called, Real Estate. As the name implies, in its off-the-shelf form, this theme is quite tailored to suit real estate agents and brokers, however, we see this offering as a terrific platform for any business site. Contact us today for your custom Wordpress theme.

Wordpress 2.5: The Verdict

The milestone Wordpress 2.5 has been released for nearly two weeks now and the final verdict seems to be rather positive. The loudest cheers seem to be regarding the revamped admin interface, designed by the folks at happycog, which is a much needed improvement.

While I’ll agree that the interface is stellar, I think the team at Wordpress could have done a better job of preparing the community for the loss of features (namely the category ID’s), and the invalid XHTML generated by the new “gallery” feature.

I’m quite certain these “bugs” will shake out in release 2.5.1, it’s clear that the major release that 2.5 is, it is just a hair shy of prime time.
