Upgraded and Redesigned

Yep, I upgraded to WordPress 2.3 and started using a new theme "BlueScent".

I had waited so long for WordPress 2.3 to come and planned to change the permalink structure to better use the native tagging support. But I got stuck at the second thing. Neither of the two reputed redirection plugins worked properly. At last I had to manually add redirection rules to .htaccess. So I really need to remind you: NEVER change your permalink structure, unless it is really necessary and you fully understand how to do it. Or this risky task will definitely piss you off!

Theme was entirely rewritten last night, codes are now tidy, and satisfying. The design is not completely new, I had been using a similar one for a week or so around January this year. But I never had time to finalize it. It was formerly with bubbles in the post entries section, which made me want to vomit after using it for a short while. So no bubbles now. The bottom area has gone because I don't know what to fill it with. Also I plucked away menu tabs, simply because I'm seeing them too often. So no tabs, just a common list of pages at the right top corner. You may say the calendar-look date mark is what you've been seeing too often. I won't fight it but just let me try that at least once.

Any thought on this theme? Please drop a line.

    @Remex: 红叉是因为你在用IE吧。论坛上有我的email,你是管理团队能看得到。
