Blog theme update

“Hey Serge, what happened to that blog design contest winner? When is that theme going up?”. Aaah yes… I got that question a couple of times in the last few weeks. Sadly Marten (the winner) mailed me with the message that he would not be able to finish the actual WordPress theme… Since that was a part of the contest, I could not just ask someone else to transform the PSD in to an actual theme. I couldn’t really cut the prize in half and so I decided to keep it for a future contest.

Around the same time, I came across Canvas by WooThemes and decided to build something on top of this framework theme. February has been really busy so I didn’t get around to building it yet. But… Tonight I noticed that someone/something inserted a link to a malware site (If you’re on Windows, please double check if the malware link didn’t install anything on your machine. I apologize if it did.). From the first investigation, I noticed some weirdness going on in the theme files and thus decided to expedite the theme switch. It’s now using a default Canvas theme but hopefully the code injecting security hole is now gone.

If you still see something weird, it would be greatly appreciated if you could let me know. Thanks!

    I like this theme, its clean and basic. Dont think you should switch to some other fancy theme. “Simple is best” :)

    Not going to switch to some fancy theme. Just going to tweak this one a little bit ;-)
