Download Disable WordPress Widgets plugin.

I’ll have new releases within the next two weeks, but for now either hold of on upgrading or live without my themes. Sorry about the trouble.

Features should be the same as Crown of Daisies 2. (See my post about that release for more info.)
If you had trouble with the old zip archive of Crown of Daisies, try downloading it again.

Expect something interesting sometime in the future, since the college admissions process is all but over.

You can grab it from here if you like what you see in front of you. I also updated Kyoto Sunset to use Internet Explorer’s alpha filter for transparency in the header.

I’ve also been working on a new frontpage for Uni. You can check it out here. Inspired by Brown University’s website, it uses some of Yahoo’s nice UI libraries for fancy sliding efects. It’s also where I picked up the IE transparency trick.

I’ll probably put up some updates to my design site over the next week, seeing as I have spring break in Maryland and not a whole lot else to do.

Well, it’s up for download now under a Creative Commons license. Requires WordPress 2 or greater with pretty much any version of K2 that supports WP2.
I might release some more themes and add some more technical info.

It’s pretty difficult to take a good shot on a Japanese highway – there are fences everywhere.
It seems that I make new themes about as often as I post here nowadays… Maybe I should make a directory for my K2 styles.

School has been going well. I wrote some automation for Uni’s alumni reunions gallery: a PHP template for generating gallery pages, and an Automator script to create thumbnails. This should mean that I’ll be done with the project pretty quickly, and maybe I can get on to some more interesting stuff. :P
