The next theme to get its 1.6 update is Realize. I’ve gotten more emails and PMs than I can count, and I promise its coming within the next 48 hours. Thanks for waiting everyone! Here are some screenshots, enjoy.

Macally MSUITPAD
I bought an iPad a couple weeks ago, does that mean I’m horrible person? Anyways! I wanted to be able to share my new toy with people that might not, uhh, value its scatch-and-scuff-free good looks as much as me. So I set off to find a case. Let me tell you something about iPad cases in BC: there’s almost no selection. Your best bet isn’t at Apple, its actually London Drugs. I visited several stores and they had the widest selection.
Unfortunately I don’t like any of the cases I’ve seen so far (I want the Incase Grip Protective Cover), so I decided to pick up a cheap alternative until I can get down to the US. I settled on Macally Silicone Protective Case for iPad (msuitpad). Here’s what you need to know..
I’m still working on the MyBB themes, but I wanted to take a moment show you some of what’s coming. The first 1.6 theme I finished was for a client site (HOMEundone Interiors). It features cleaner CSS / HTML, more AJAX, better buttons, a more streamlined appearance and solid computability across all major browsers. I’m going to apply these and a few other elements as I refresh the 1.4 themesover this week.
One area I’m focusing on is the header section. I tried to innovate with my latest themes (Realize and Aardvark), and my goal now is to make them even better looking and more functional. The header is obviously unique to each theme, but here’s what put together for my client’s site.
Something that’s always bugged me about forum software are smiles on the post editor. They take up a huge amount of space and usually cheese-up the page considerably. So I put them in a cupboard! (easily opened and closed with a click)
