I decided to use Wordpress as the platform for the new version of my site because in my opinion, it is the best (free!) blogging software available at the moment. I have done several installations and customizations of Wordpress in the past few months and have had a chance to integrated many plugins into themes I custom designed.
If you have some CSS, php and web-design skill, you can turn Wordpress into more than just a blogging software: it can be made into a content management system, integrated with your forum and gallery.
I will be posting about my experiences with Wordpress once in a while, including tips on how to customize it, my list of must-have plug-ins, my 2 cents on themes.. and maybe even the theme for this website if I get enough requests for it (hint.. hint).
So, check back often!

I probably won’t be doing an art blog (I’ve discouraged myself enough already), but I love this layout. Since all I really know how to do is change colors around, and that’s all I’d really WANT to do with this layout, definitely make it a theme! It rocks.

Eric: Thanks for your comment
Yes.. I will release this theme shortly. I just have to make 100% XHTML compliant first and fix a small alignment issue. Thanks again

Is it Facebook-compatible?
