    Icon11 Cheers from Boston, Massachusetts

    My name is Omi, but my username is fine too. I used to use Wordpress 2.6 *tumbleweed blows by* and decided to install a blog again; soon after realizing much has changed. I learn pretty fast. So I am creating a child theme for my blog based on TwentyTen, and also a similar version for Thematic afterward (hopefully) and other frameworks (too see what I like better - but will release them too just for the heck of it). My blog is a 'for musician'-about music blog/site/cms... #yawn.

    Everytime I googled help on things I kept getting threads here. After bookmarking dozens, I figured I'd sign up. I notice a couple people from other sites I've dialoged on as well (but will unlikely remember me).

    Some stats:

    • I'm a female
    • Really REALLY bad coffee addict
    • <3's Music, movies, glowey stuff, zombies and long walks in circles

    So I hope to be able to search the forums, figure things out and make a few friends.

    Welcome to the Tavern!

    Pour yourself a drink - just don't be surprised to see that tumbleweed roll by these parts during the weekend. We should return to our normally rowdy selves once the week kicks off.

    Do I call you Chip?

    Thanks for the welcome. That's pretty much what I figured.

    Welcome welcome. That avatar of yours is even older than WP 2.6 =). "No, I'm Korben Dallas"

    Indeed, a truly great, underrated movie!

    And yes, everyone calls me Chip (well, among other things; but this is a family joint).

    True! I thought the plot and story are amazing. I don't think it gets as much respect because it's sort of PG-13 style and uses dry humor, similar to a movie like Total Recall (which I also loved). If 5th element was done like The Matrix, I think with a little more side story it could have been a Star Wars.

    Heh, I guess that means the SEO plugin installed on the forum is doing the trick. Welcome to the forums. Looks like you've jump in head first recently.
