Is The WordPress.com Theme Marketplace On It’s Way?

Now that the WordPress themes viewer has been revamped, become the WordPress Theme Directory, and is pleasantly subverting things in the background of your upload, is The WordPress.com Theme Marketplace far behind? I’ve always thought the two would go hand in hand.

The ThemeShaper Forums

ThemeShaper now has forums. Powered by bbPress, of course. If you have any questions or concerns about any of the ThemeShaper themes, please post them there. That way we can all learn from, well, um, my mistakes. I guess. Gee. Why did I start forums again?

ThemeShaper Forums.

I Love Lucida

I love Lucida. It’s simply one of the nicest fonts around. Unfortunately, it’s hard to get it to look right across operating systems running default fonts—unless! Unless you use the Lucida Hybrid: The “Grande” Alternative. Now go make something nice.

Remove the WordPress Generator

Don’t want the world to know what version of WordPress you’re running? You’ve got three options. The first two require you to edit functions.php and let you hide the generator completely or empty the version number. Alternately, you can just use the plugin.

Bask in the safety of WordPress anonymity.
