Four dot Zero

Welcome to jsleeper.org 4.0. Here’s a little history of the various major revisions:

1.0 - September 2004.
Installed Wordpress version 1.2. Theme design helped by Britt Odom (with my favorite color orange).

2.0 - ~ March 2005
Wordpress 1.5 came out, with better management for themes. Updated the theme with same coloring. Added cool stuff like subscribing to comments, subscribing to site.

3.0 - August 2005.
Decided I wanted a different look and I wanted a front page that wasn’t the blog, with some more info. Created an entire theme from scratch, with all design work done by me (not the best looking site, but not the worst).

4.0 - Today
I was tired of the look and I was tired of the front page. It’s no longer relevant to me. I found a cool theme (which credits are at bottom) and modified it to fit my liking.

I still have some things to do, like match up the gallery to the look of this site, and write an updated ‘about me’ page. I like the two-column sidebar, I’ll also be adding some more links to the blogroll, mostly with cool CF sites and blogs that I’ve found over the past few months.

Comments on the new look are welcome!

    I really like this look… it’s a minimalist clean look. Good job!

    well it was a good job picking the theme, not creating it. I had to find something i liked since i don’t have time to build one these days.

    ’subscribe to comments’ wasn’t working - it’s fixed now. it was probably broken before but i didn’t test everything when doing a wordpress upgrade.

    I think it looks good. I think often of changing out site. I don’t have time and I definitely don’t have time to even blog much anymore so…..

    But this is about you. Good job, bro! Keep it up. You make me want to change things.
