Modified Foliage for download! Monday, December 17, 2007 | 34

The Modified Foliage Theme, currently running on this blog, is now available for download! You may download the theme from the source repository at Google Code.. The current version is a development release and hence there might be a few issues with the theme. One known issue with the theme is the absence of popup-widget feature. The IE6 flicker problem has now been rectified.

You may read more at the theme's home page.

Thanks a lot Rudi, for reminding me to upload the theme. Please feel free to contact me for any issues that you face. I would request you to log the issue at Google Code.

You can download the ZIP archive from here.

Foliage (in XML) Preview Wednesday, October 03, 2007 | 0

Welcome! You are currently browsing the final preview of the Foliage theme, converted to the XML format.

I am done with the original conversion of the foliage theme completely to XML. There are slight differences, due to blogger changing its API in version 2.

Please let me know your feedback and comments. I am also working on a modified version on the theme, with lots more options like a place for widgets, more bookmark options, calendar based navigation and lots more AJAX. So keep pouring in your thoughts.

Template - TODOs Wednesday, September 26, 2007 | 0

A few suggestions have dropped in, some of which I would be incorporating in the template, sooner or later ;)

• Calendar based in-theme navigation.
• Self-comments distinguishing.
• Tag Clouds instead of labels.

Keep pouring in your suggestions. Thanks to all!
