Gravatar Plugin support
Giving new identity to your blog readers. It's a cool stuff to have. Enhance your reader to give their feedback as well. Hope you like it. You have to download Gravatar Plugin to enable this feature.

Yup, finally, it's separated. It even support the famous Paged Comments, of course, with a little hacked. Please download the plugin from MangoOrange instead. I have sent my modification and hopefully the author will include it in the future version. Till then, you have to use the hacked version. No worries, the changes are minimal.

WordPress 2.5 CSS Element support
The newly added CSS elements alignright and alignleft has been used to usually float images left and right of the post. Many having issue of no padding causing the image to stick closely with the text. No worries. It's all fixed now.

i3Theme Classic

Since every new colour i3Theme has a sexy name, I decided to call the original i3Theme, Classic. Sounds like the iPod Classic example.

As Christmas coming, it would be a great gift to present to all the i3Theme fans and here it is: the i3Theme 1.5. Nothing major has changed except that I have fixed quite a few bugs and guess what? It's now compatible with version before WordPress 2.3. I hope this is a great feature for the non-english WordPress as I believe they are a little behind the english version.

Not only that, I have finally fixed the major problem in IE6 where widgets or images that larger than the sidebar width will pushes the rest of the boxes or main content down. Hope everyone will have little problems with this new release.

Below's a list of changes made:

• SEO-friendly header title
• Enable hierarchical structure for category's sidebar (for Widgets, use the 'Categories' widget)
• Bug Fixed: (Only in IE6) Information overflow in the sidebar destroy the layout
• Bug Fixed: Next/Previous link display the same [special thanks to Jamie]
• Bug Fixed: Category icons missing when using Widgets' categories
• Bug Fixed: Unable to work in WordPress 2.2 or lower [special thanks to mat]

Lastly, I would like to announce that i3Theme has 19,648 downloads since the first release of i3Theme. I hope by Christmas, it will hit the 20,000 mark.

Till then, Merry Christmas to everyone!

Here it is, the next release of the i3Theme, version 1.4. I'm sorry that it took quite a while for me to come out with this release as I was busy finishing up my project assignments as well as preparing for my upcoming final exam.

So, you might be asking, what's new and what's fix...

1. Availability of author credential of each post
   Now you will be able to see whose the author of the post. Thanks to Ken's request and donation.
2. Improved blog header title with better navigation information
3. Able to handle multiple rows of the sub-navigation page (click below to enlarge)
   
4. Able to handle 2 times (over 2000px in height) the current maximum number of items in the box

I hope you guys like it and continue to give me the support by downloading the latest i3Theme. More things coming up in December 2007. Keep a look out.

Lastly, kudos to i3Theme users.

Today, I'm very happy to announce that i3Theme has gathered over 9,500 downloads ever since it's first release on 5th May 2007. I have received many reviews and feedbacks about the theme and I'm glad that it has made quite an impact in the blogging arena. Some of them even expressed that because of i3Theme, they are motivated to do more work!

It's been a difficult time for me, juggling my new business, Exoro, studies as well as giving support for the i3Theme. I'm very thankful for those who have been patient with my slow replies and would like to apologize to those who had urgent requests but I couldn't attend to them. Nonetheless, it's all of you who have made i3Theme a great success.

I personally would like to thank the i3Theme donators: staticbrain, The Wood Whisperer and Qikflo. Their contributions have motivated me to continue to provide my best possible support for i3Theme. In addition, I would like to acknowledge Web Hosting Geeks, for its strong support for the i3Theme as well as the upcoming release. I hope all the i3Theme fans out there can benefit from the great reviews they have for web hostings when you are searching for one to host your wordpress with i3Theme

Besides all the thanking, I would also like to announce the release of the latest i3Theme v1.3. It has been fully tested with the major four browsers as well as the latest wordpress 2.3. It even supports tagging, the latest feature in WordPress 2.3. So go ahead and upgrade your blog to the latest i3Theme with no worries. Feel free to see the changes at the changelog.
