    Backstory For the last month I have read about JavaScript ( ECMAScript ) and how it works. To say the least I am one step closer to not being as bald as I thought I would be. JavaScript is a great language to learn and has so much potential behind it and for it. What…

    What? Comments. That is the topic. As some may know I’m in the middle of creating a WordPress theme to submit to the repository. I want this theme to not only pass but to pass with flying colors. I followed about as close to how the default themes are but have also integrated some from…

    Today I put the finishing touches to my customized archives widget. While I am tempted to submit it to the WordPress plugin repository I will hold off for a little bit.

    The most recent version of WordPress got delayed but I feel it is for the good. The reason this time is because the features are not quite the way the community would like. There are some minor issues but will be fixed within the time span. The reason I’m pretty pumped about this next major…
