I just wanted to let you know I’ve made progress preparing the theme for release, and it seems it could be ready sooner than I expected.
I’ve had to make several changes to its functionality because the version I had running on my blog was heavily customized, and I need to make sure it can run on any WordPress install. I have to say though, by doing this cleanup and standardization I have simplified many things that were bugging me before and I’m really liking what I’m seeing! After I’m done with it I might have to switch back to that theme ;)
Anyway, I’ll keep you posted.
I’m proud to announce I’ve formally started working on preparing the original minusfive WordPress theme for mass release. The theme was inspired by my first visit to MoMA, a place I dreamed of visiting ever since I found my passion for modern design.
There are many things to work out in order to make the theme flexible enough so it can work seamlessly in any WordPress install. I hope to be posting soon about the actual release.
Danny Blackman makes your eyes smoothly fly over samples of his amazing graphical artwork. He makes excellent use of standard XHTML and CSS, coupled with the slick transition effects of the mootools JavaScript library to deliver what I think is one of the best single-page portfolio websites I’ve seen; a great example of simplicity used to achieve an incredibly smooth and beautiful user experience.
So after a long time of silence, minusfive is coming back with a new design and more content. Enjoy.
