When browsing through my e-mail correspondence I received some good news. One Rainbow Feather user sat down and fixed the theme for Internet Explorer 6 and lower users. He also came up with a nice design modification.
In other great news, I will be releasing at least two more high-quality themes this month. I am currently working on a design for a trance radio, which will be stylish, functional and futuristic. Stay locked.
Read MoreI prefer Firefox to the Internet Explorer for several reasons which I will not be listing here today.
This post is merely a quick information to all my visitors to compare what they are missing when not using Firefox.
I had to create a whole new template and stylesheets for my Internet Explorer audience, because the one working for Firefox was causing troubles -layout wise- for IE.
The main difference is actually merely the menu. On Firefox it renders on the top and looks cool, while Internet Explorer users will have it on the left hand-side. Still cool, but not as fancy and smooth (I find).
Click either the Firefox logo or the Internet Explorer logo to see a screenshot of the h4x3d.com mainsite in the browser.
Enjoy.
One cool thing, is that Linux browsers seem to like my layout. Nothing breaks so far. If you have trouble with the layout, please leave a comment.

My 30 WordPress themes challenge continues, check-out my last week’s released themes below.
A Click on the image takes you to the individual theme page with download links!
There are plenty of more themes to be released in this month,
check the below image for an overview:
Rainbow feather is done, check it out! – I need a break :)
Read MoreUPDATE below (click this to go there now)
I challenge myself to come up with the below stated themes in the next 30 days.
I started gathering ideas around May, when I released thumbnail images of the objects I wanted the themes to be based on. Then I got busy with exams (100-page business plan to be written) and later on tied to my bed due to a flu.
I hope the folks over at weblogtoolscollection.com
will be able to pick them up one by one.
All themes are free of charge, contain NO SPONSOR LINKS and are designed with love.
I put plenty of free UNPAID time in creating those themes. I hope that even though they have “new” rules at themes.wordpress.net their omnipresent moderator (who is he anyway?) will not delete them straight away. The idea with those upcoming themes is to create themes based on objects and their corresponding color, not to come up with 30 unique layouts. Milo, one of the designers that I really respect, comes up with plenty of cool new ideas, but half of her themes are “unfinished” business in my eyes. Stuff like that does not get deleted, does it?
Thanks to goldcaster for his continuous interest in the progress.
Also thanks to Garry Conn for his comments some time ago. It really helped sorting my brain out. I hope that I might get coverage of my goal to design 30 themes this month by Lorelle. If Small Potato was able to do it (his themes were okay and clean, but not outstanding in terms of creativity and detail love!), then I can do it, too. One of my idol designers is Bartelme, just to be said. His themes are full of design love! Again, the idea is not to come up with different layouts, but to use one master layout and modify it every day and add little details to it presenting the featured object in the center of the page. All text will wrap around it. Even lists! Let’s see what the final product (or last theme) on July 31st will look like.
Head over to my portfolio and checkout my past work.
Subpages:
13:50 cet Finished listing ideas with preview images (see list above). Seems like I missed one idea… but I will come up with another one. I plan to release either icey or dragee at 16:00 cet.
16:20 cet Dragee released.
17:25 cet (June 2nd) Second theme released – Glass a blue-ish theme. Changes to theme released on day #1
15:35 cet (June 3rd) Third theme released – Mandarin an orange theme. I put a crazy amount of detail love in this. I hope anyone will find it handy. Please see the mandarin theme page for details and changes. There are plenty.
18:55 cet (June 4th) – Fourth theme released – Fresh Apple
I have not yet run out of ideas, wheh, so my challenge continues…
It is a three-column theme that is based on another object (as my challenge states, I want to design themes based on objects).
The object used is a green fresh apple that has earplugs “put on”.
Kind of “Apple music”… I guess.
Special features this time:
two adsense units placed and adapted – they are almost hidden on the page.
the base layout is based on the “3 column holy grail-css”. I adapted it in order to fit my needs.
not to forget the rounded corner nesting fun :)
18:35 cet (June 5th) – Fifth theme released – Moon
Moon is a (more or less semi fluid) three-column dark (as in black) and cold (as in blue) theme. It is designed around the moon, has two sidebars and features mootools. Click the “top” link in order to scroll up and you will see what moo is doing for you.
Same idea applies to the last three posts that are shown below the blogname.
My website keeps on going up and down, if anyone can recommend a dedicated hosting capable of serving 10,000 to 15,000 uniques a day, please drop me a line. – I think I will be going for zone.net – Does anyone know them?
17:35 cet (June 6th) – Sixth theme released – Cityscape / Sign A modern, urban-style two-column fluid theme. See the linked page above for details and screenshots.
I need to pause the challenge for the weekend as I got urgent client work to be done. I should be back on Monday! In the meantime check-out this week’s released themes (listed above)!
The designing continues
16:15 cet (June 9th) – Seventh theme released – bomb Not sure how to describe this, but it is a mainly white and blank theme with a smoking bomb. Actually two bombs, but hey… See the linked page above for details and screenshots.
08:15 cet (June 11th) – Eighth theme released -
Feather
Rainbow Feather is a fluid one-column wordpress theme. As the name suggests the colours in this theme are rainbow-ish. From Blue, baby blue, to yellow, orange, white, blue gradient and pink, barbie pink to evil pink. Cool features include: Fancy web2.0 like headings (wet graphics), custom badges “read on” and “continue reading”, matching color scheme/palette, Login area that shows logged in users (well it shows you and gives you options). This is only visible though if you have new user registration on. Also, a cool RSS-Feed graphic.
The following post gives a short overview about the events from late May 2007 till now. It includes detailed to-do list for June 2007 and gives some personal insights of what has happened to me in the past month.
As I wrote in my last asides entry I have been busy with exams for the past three weeks: I had to revise for economics, law, stochastics, statistics, market research, financial accounting and marketing. Furthermore I had to deliver a 30-page business plan (that turned out to be 113 pages), a 20-page paper, deliver a presentation about Philips in Dutch, write endless reflections and do many time management tests. All in all a busy semester – at the end. I have not been at Dutch classes for weeks and still scored a 8/10 with help of Marijn and Snuk (who works as a cop nowadays in Amsterdam’s red light district…). What I wanted to say is that this Dutch study-module at Fontys Hogeschool Economié is total crap and exploitable. Not as if anyone cared.. Anyhow, semester is over, I am about to receive my intermediate exam(ination), which is sometimes also called intermediate degree after one year already. Times keeps on slipping..
Best part about the semester being over is that I have holidays now, yay! I have purchased some items on the internet to keep me busy, but I have also come up with a long to-do list of tasks and assignments that need to be done in the upcoming weeks to keep all my visitors happy (the is the part where you could drop me a mail…)
In chronological order, or at least in order of importance:
See… loads to do.

I am currently working on some 30+ themes, here are just little screenshots of the key element of the individual themes. Every theme will be colored by an individual color scheme matching the object shown. I should be ready before my exams at university start in June.
Feel free to subscribe to my RSS-Feed, or to visit this place every week or so. Thanks, jez
First of all a big sorry for the delay, after all I am ‘student’ first and then everything else needs time, too: in no particular order: girlfriend, music (remember I dj), sports, cooking, design, the internet and friends.
I got my exams coming up at June 7th, 11th and 12nd. I will be pretty much dedicating myself to design work then to get those beauties done! Thanks to goldcaster and milo for their comments!
But here to give you a quick preview of what I have done so far, some screenshots:
