While We are Waiting For the Monotone Theme

Edit:
Now 20 hours later the Monotone is up on WP.com and I am learning how to deal with it. Yay!

The other day Matt announced the coming of a new Automattic Noel Jackson photoblog theme. It’s named Monotone, and to tell the truth; it looks great. I really hope they are going to make it available at wordpress.com, or else I might get slightly disappointed. Speaking in mild terms.

Anyway, I’ve changes the look of this place (again), and I am almost satisfied. At least to that degree that I feel I can fix things myself. - Of course, nothing is better than a perfect, handcrafted, delicious template. But when you are just a poor student, who can not afford anyone else to do the work, nor is a brilliant coder (at all…), you sort of end up with middle way solutions. Not that there’s not a lot of great-looking templates out there for free, made my some awesome people. But in the end of the day, I want to make/do some of it myself.
Therefore I do love the people behind Tarski, K2 etc, who makes my life a lot simpler. And seriously, I’ve learned a lot by playing around with these themes. Adding styles and creating headers nearly every week for the past six months. Thank you guys!

Looking at this last gain of mine it does not seem like I’ve learned anything at all, does it?
- again I am trying something new, and again I might not succeed. But, thank you very much Justin Wong, for creating this theme, and license it under GPL, so I can mess aound with it. I’ve already added gravatar support to the theme, as well as some other stuff:D

Back to Wordpress.com.
Since I am such a control-freak, you might wonder why I am still blogging there. Here are some related posts:

I think I am done with off-topic posting for a while. So this is the last blogy update for a while, I hope.
