It is done. The PRO version of the Daily News Theme has been published and the regular version has undergone another update.

You can now choose to either display posts of a selected category or to choose three pages by ID to be displayed in the featured section.

The PRO version makes designing blogs easier than ever before. You can set colors, background images, fonts, paddings, margins, and more without touching a line of code.

Customizing a theme using RichWP Options is much easier than messing around with hooks like in other theme frameworks. This concept also makes your theme update-proof since all settings are stored away from the actual theme files. RichWP WordPress themes are made quickly. Get your customized site up and running as fast as possible.

Both the regular and the PRO version use of the new WordPress 2.9+ thumbnail functionality. You don’t have to create a custom field with an image URL anymore. Linking a thumbnail to a post has never been easier.

Check out the comparison table of the different DailyNews versions to get an overview of the themes ability.

The RichBlog WordPress theme is out. I have been thinking for quite a while about releasing a classic blog theme. If you look at the top 100 blogs of the world, you come to realize that a classic blog theme is the design approach which is being used the most.

As with all other RichWP themes, you can completely customize your blog via the theme options page. Change the colors and background, add icons to link to your favourite social media sites, build a secondary navigation in the footer, add statistic tracking and much more.

If you want even more flexibility, buy the PRO version. The PRO version of the RichBlog theme takes design customization to a whole new level by letting you customize margins and paddings and even make [...]

I have just released the RichWP Affiliate Theme. The Affiliate Theme has been designed for affiliates as well as real estate brokers. List your real estate or affiliate offers in 3 different ways (grid view, half page list, normal post list) to maximize attention in your market.

We have currently installed the RichWP Affiliate Theme on fighterxfashion.com. This site uses the normal post list and is a very good example of how it can cover a fast-paced and busy market. The design of the site was built using the design options of the PRO Theme System. No additional CSS coding was required.

If you want to blog about gadgets, fashion accessories or within any market, do it like the pros. It is not easy to cover a whole industry but the RichWP Affiliate theme makes your life much easier [...]

In almost every market, so called early birds or market mavens will read your product information, write in with pre-purchase questions, and are willing to try out your products.

Do you want to strike it rich on the Internet? Are you listening to Internet marketers trying to sell their internet marketing products?

They tell you to go for the niches. If this is such a sound strategy, why aren’t they implementing this strategy themselves? Why are they selling “internet marketing” and “get rich quick” products in a highly competitive market instead of developing niches like they advise [...]

This is not an update of my famous Photo Theme, this is a complete rebuild. I have created the NEW Photo Theme from the ground up. Now it is slim, comes with new functions and the new options page fulfills all your blogging and photo gallery needs.

Did you know that the architecture of my Photo Gallery Theme has a big advantage over most gallery plugins? If you build your gallery with my theme, you build it page by page, one image per page. That gives you the optimum search engine exposure you want to have.

Besides that, the gallery function of my WordPress Photo Theme is compatible with the gallery function of all my other second generation themes (regular v1.2 and PRO). This means that you can easily switch the look of your site without the needing to rebuild the gallery again. Your gallery today can be a blog tomorrow or even a full-blown magazine next week.

Since my advertising banners became outdated I have outsourced the creation of a new banner set to two graphic designers here in Montreal. The results are as good as I expected. Please replace the old banners for the new ones if you are running them on your site.

Besides that, I have enabled direct product hoplinks within e-junkie. You are now able to target your campaign and affiliate efforts way more efficiently. Every hoplink sets the e-junkie cookie and regardless of what link you referred the customer to my site, all sales will be tracked and commissioned.

If you are not an affiliate yet, think about making some extra money with my affiliate program. Have a look around.

The Superblogger theme has been updated with the latest version of the theme options page. I have also made some small changes.  For example, the big article box on top can now be exchanged for a “Featured Content Gallery” slideshow. The small article box on the bottom right now shows posted thumbnails instead of the excerpts, and another widgetized sidebar has been added right under it.

I have also released the long-awaited PRO version of the Superblogger theme. Now you will be able to build the exact site you want without spending ridiculous amounts of money on programmers, web-designers or internet agencies. If you fall under one of these categories, consider using the PRO theme to get your work done faster; you will be able to offer more competitive prices than anybody else.

The PRO themes are complete theme design systems, based on the layout and functionality of the particular theme. As soon as I have an idea for a new design and have the background graphics done, I usually get the design set up in about 10-15min.

A couple videos showing the design process and the speed of implementation are in the works right now. Stay tuned!

My new designer came up with a nice background illustration to bring you and your site’s visitors into the mood of the holidays. To get you and your site’s visitors into the holiday spirit, download and use this background on your site. I use it with the Grey Matter (standard) color scheme and have it set up to be fixed, aligned top-right with no-repeat and a #FFFFFF background color.
