After what seemed like weeks of searching, I have finally found a new theme for the blog, and so far it looks like it loads a lot quicker too. That was the main reason for changing, the old one seemed to take ages to load on certain pages. so here it is, the new look.
I shall also be switching to the new Wordpress 2.7 soon enough. I have already loaded it on the testblog and while it does take a bit of getting used to, it is a grower. Its just a matter of finding out where everything is in the new vertical admin section, and then remembering where you put it next time you need it.
The latest version for Wordpres, version 2.6.1 is now available to download from here. Also the full list of changes can be gotten from here. The main benefits will be for admin users in Hebrew or Farsi as 2.6.1 offers several improvements for international users. Styling of the admin for right-to-left languages is much improved thanks to the efforts of the Farsi and Hebrew translation teams, and a mysterious gettext bug caused by certain PHP configurations is now fixed. For IIS users, 2.6.1 fixes several permalink problems. Image insertion problems in the Press This feature experienced by IE users are also fixed. Of note to everyone is a fix for a performance bug in the admin where those with a lot of plugins would experience slowness on some pages.

I have a question for all you Wordpress Gurus out there:
When you add a page to your blog, a link is placed up top in the header. I want to add links there to pages that were not added by the wordpress blog.
For example I want to place a link in the header to point to the Write Post page. I also want to add a link to pages I create myself, for example testpage.php etc.
How do I do this? Can I do this?
I have a plugin I use for the Submit link at present, but I would prefer to link to the actual write post page, so that authors must login/be registered
bloggarriv has upgraded to 2.5
i’ll keep you posted any any findings/improvements etc
What I want to know is what happened to 2.4?
