Decisions and Optimizations

Phew! An update after a Long Time. Lots to say, but hmm.. where to begin.

Finally Started to actually work on ExperTrio after a Long Break. For the time being, Preshit had managed to put up a highly modified free template. (Well, as he says, I ‘escaped’ for sometime leaving the work half done)

Had tried to design a custom one nearly 2 months back, But unfortunately, The only part I could save was the Stylesheet and the Index, lost the graphics after my Hard-Drive got a little um, Bad. (Thanks to Ubuntu :-/, Luckily PSPad automatically creates backups of the files, So managed to recover those)

Started to work on it again a few weeks ago, The Template is coming out very well! We both are working on it in our free time, Since we both have exams this week and the next, the template can only be completed and put up by September.

Hopefully, I’ll let you know when its actually online. (In the meanwhile, small screenshots, the orange one was how it meant to be looking before the unfortunate incident, The blue one is the current)

ExperTrio Design’s ‘Alpha’ ExperTrio New Design

Other than that, Nothing much to say. I’ve been optimizing my weblog’s template again, Reduced the size by another 14KiB (G-Zip Compressed Stylesheet) and added some Search Engine Optimizations.

And before I forget, The latest Harry Potter is great! Its much unlike the previous ones (exception to The Goblet of Fire) , I’d suggest reading it if you already haven’t.

I’ll keep you updated about ET, So until next time :)

P.S: I _know_ that the title sucks. But oh well, I’m not that creative when it comes to writing

Designing, Personal and Reading

    The first one eh? Well, as I mentioned, It was looking way too much orange, so changed the colour scheme to Black, Gray, Blue. (the 2nd One). Oh Well, The blue one will look good _after_ we actually finish it and put it online :)

    Here is a partial demo of the new theme (modified phpBB3 ProSilver template)
