Custom WordPress Themes

November 8th, 2011


Not only does WordPress allow one to create blogs, but the themes included under its canopy are just amazing. The admin dashboard is the place to work on the themes and give your blog it’s own unique twist.

One can even customize a web page according to one’s whims and fancies, and create a new look everyday. Obviously this is just a suggestion to experiment though constancy is recommended to make people relate to you or your company through your blog.

WordPress sets the basic guidelines as to how to create a blog or other web content, and one can utilize this feature to create superb web designs that will make people want to visit your blog again and again.

WordPress is nothing but an empty playground without the myriad of themes it has on offer. Themes that are custom-made can be used to create one’s very own personalized designs for blogs and other web content. With custom WordPress themes now available, one does not have to stick to the boring standard blog look and can opt for an individual style.

So is getting a custom WordPress theme really necessary?

Yes, so that your blog doesn’t look the same as everyone else and your creation makes a statement which sets you apart from the rest. The custom WordPress theme chosen should complement your content and reflect your own writing style, the emotion or tone of your content, and your personality.

Traffic and visitors are easily drawn to a website that is unique and interesting. Custom WordPress themes carry the shade of every color of the palette, and the striking design of each custom theme displays style and class.

Shouldn’t the Internet Should Be Viewed on a Large Screen?

November 1st, 2011

Well, I’ll ask you again – shouldn’t the Internet be viewed on a large screen?

I mean, I love my widescreen monitor and I love seeing things online at a high res of 1680×1050 and I just don’t get mobile users who watch videos on their tiny screens.

I confess – I know there’s a huge market for mobile marketing, and in my case I could easily create mobile-friendly designs for any client. It’s actually easy to create a main site that will be viewable in mobile by using flexible design strategies that are accomplished using CSS.

But my point is this: sure Smart phones are great for a lot of people, but for the artist in me, I have to say, I prefer the larger canvas. It’s just a matter of taste.

Actually, I don’t own a Smart phone. I have a standard flip-phone that just does the job: texts to my family and friends, and the odd call. It’s mostly for emergencies.

The trend I see lately is scary. You invite friends over. These friends have Smart phones. The whole time they are at your place “partying”, their nose is on their phone. Say what? You came over why?

I guess it’s just another trend, a trend I fear won’t go away anytime soon. But I don’t have to be a part of any trend, I think, so I just do my thing and don’t apologize for it. It’s just who I am and my opinion – nothing more.

I do invite all comments for or against. I say the Internet should be viewed on a large screen. What say you?

Make the Most of Your Time

October 28th, 2011

I believe time is a precious thing. We only have so much time on this planet to achieve what we were destined to do, and so many of us waste that precious time by worrying about things we shouldn’t worry about, by doing things that we shouldn’t be doing, by trying to do things that other people expect us to do, and by not being true to ourselves. We are constantly fed negativity from the media, from other people’s struggles that we hear about everywhere we go, and so we waste time taking it all in, when we should be spending our time loving ourselves enough to do those things that bring us closer to our own divine purpose on earth.

We are taught at a young age that we shouldn’t be selfish, that we should think of others before ourselves. But that is so wrong. We cannot truly love another human being unless we love ourselves enough to nurture and care for ourselves. It is not selfish at all to love oneself. The more you take care of yourself the more you have to give to others. So taking care of yourselves is a great use of your time.

This weekend make it a point to do something special for yourself. You deserve it. And I bet you time will stand still while you are pampering yourself. Spend your precious time on positive things, things that will make you and those you love, happy.

Here’s a beautiful video with awesome high res graphics and Enya’s beautiful song “Only Time”. Enjoy your precious time.
