Loser-X

I've been putting this long overdue update off due to some ridiculous workloads and just plain laziness (which would explain the lack of posts too). But yes, That Stupid Club is now running on Community Server 2007 , only with the same stupid theme...

The Community Server website has a new look, in anticipation of the imminent CS2007 release I suppose. Much more polished, though somehow less distinctive. Probably due to the colour scheme. In any case, am improvement.

I decided to hand optimise the default CSS that came with the CS 2.1 package, both for the mental exercise as well as to derive a less verbose set for me to customise any future CS projects from. The totaled file size is reduced from 179 KB to 140 KB...

Originally a design by sofaspud , adapted for Wordpress by Sadish which was used as the basis for the CS 2.1 adaptation. Get it .

I was fooling around with the first beta of Community Server 2007, and swiped ideas from a few websites which shall remain unnamed ("I'm a code monkey, not a designer!" is my excuse). I guess I like the new design enough to make the effort to back port...

Kubrick is, of course, the default theme of Wordpress. I have been working on it on and off, and I figure I should release it before the imminent release of the first beta of CS3. Included is a variant ChinaRed. Get it .

Yet another adaptation of a minimalist Wordpress theme, "White as Milk" by Azeem Azeez . I did the variant with the dark background by request. Not quite happy with it, but I think its usable. Get it . Please comment if you are planning to use it, together...

I was planning to go on a major skinning exercise for That Stupid Club, but seeing this , and actually reading about it, I am salivating at The Power that will be available. Eagerly waiting for the first beta... Update: link to Ben Tiedt's series of posts...

After working on it on and off for a while it is finally (I think) ready for release. There probably will be issues as its only been tested on my own blog. The CSS definitely has some extraneous stuff which I will be working to be rid of for the next...

The Telligent crew back ported the Blog File Drop feature slated for CS 3.0 into 2.1. What it means is that I can upload more than one picture per post via the MetaWeblogAPI. This is fantastic news. It simply means I no longer have to futz around with...

I have only just realised that I have been mentioned twice in the Community Server Daily News. (I'm duckie) This site runs on Community Server by the way, and I highly recommend it. Version 3 (due Q1 2007) will be even better.
