A few days ago, David Airey’s Creative Design blog passed the 1,000 comments mark. A small yet impressive milestone for a relatively young blog. (I was the 1,000th commenter - I’ll claim that free pint one day, David)
David’s achievement, along with Scot Smith of Meridiancrest’s success at smashing his own goals he set for March, [...]

Since redesigning miLienzo.com, I have had lots of positive feedback and one or two people have emailed me asking if they could use my WordPress theme.
The style and branding of this site is unique and that is important to me. However, it struck me that I could tweak the overall feel of the theme simply [...]

After the shock and horror of discovering my site didn’t work with Internet Explorer, a weekend of furious coding later, miLienzo.com has a new look and feel to it.

After my discovery that miLienzo.com doesn’t actually work in Internet Explorer (schoolboy error!), I’ve been beavering away with a new WordPress template.

I don’t claim to be an expert with search engine optimisation (SEO). I’m very interested in the design and aesthetics of the Web and new media, but not really very interested in the fiddly geeky works of SEO. So it is with complete ignorance on my part that miLienzo.com has been blacklisted by Google.
In actual [...]

Question: What is the difference between this blog posting, and my Top 10 plugins for a WordPress newbie post?
Answer: The first post is owned by a thieving scumbag splogger.
A ’splog’, as defined by whatis.com, is “a fake blog created solely to promote affiliated Web sites, with the intent of skewing search results and artificially boosting [...]

I am officially a WordPress ‘noob’. My site has been live for eight whole days and I’ve a staggering two previous posts under my belt. “Steady on there,” I hear you say. Well that’s not the half of it - I’ve already got 10 plugins installed. And activated!
The WordPress Plugin Database can be a daunting [...]

Only a couple of days ago I was commenting on how amazing WordPress is (and it really is), but alas I have discovered a serious shortcoming in the way it handles images.
All WordPress users will be familiar with the clunky upload tool, which does exactly what it says on the tin - it uploads stuff. [...]
