Windows Hacks: Improve The Context Menu, Part 4 Technorati Favorite’s Train

Welcome To The New Samanathon.com!

As you can see, we are using a new theme here. We’re running the iTheme by Nick La and I’m loving it!! It’s way cleaner then the last theme we had: I had packed so much stuff in to sidebars that it looked way too cluttered. This theme is nice and streamlined - plus, it allows you to be in control of the layout: You can collapse the sidebar content and click-and-drag items around!

Don’t like and item? Collapse it and move it all the way to the bottom! As long as you have cookies enabled, your settings will be remembered no matter what page you view! You can close the browser and the settings will be remembered! Also, I have disabled many of the 41 plugins I had so the site should load much faster for you all!

What do you guys think?

    Clean and clear…

    C-O-O-L to the eyes! :cool:

    I was like… Ey… what happened here?

    I did some clearing up in my blog also, but it’s the same template as before. :razz:

    Oh thank goodness, Frog Mario hopped over to this one too! I was afraid the new theme would scare him away.

    Nice Job Saman - much cleaner looking!

    Wow…Saman brings the hotness!

    It’s a nice clean theme that certainly does seem less cluttered and if you get tired of blogging you could always setup and Apple Store on the same site. :lol: Good Job.

    Love the new look! Definitely much cleaner, very slick and professional.

    Glad to see it was just a redesign though … for a minute there I thought I was on the wrong site :P

    Joining the redesign bandwagon I see. I spotted this theme a few days ago and had a look at it, but it didn’t offer what I was looking for, and wouldn’t suit my blog at all. However, it looks nice here. You’re learning what I am learning Saman, often less is more and design does matter.

    Just to let you know too, it is considerably faster than before.

    However, I find something quite ironic about this…you’re an XP hacker with XP tips and tricks, but not with a mac design!!

    :lol: Yeah, I noticed the irony of the Mac/Windows thing too! Oh well, as long as it looks simple, clean and loads quickly - that’s all that matters!

    100x better, I love it! And yes, first thing I noticed besides the new look is that it loads much faster. It used to take a LONG time to load for me, even on broadband :)

    Looks good. I was not a fan of the old three column but this one looks pretty nice.

    :shock: This is a two-column theme!

    Nice sense of irony right?

    What can I say, nothing says “clean” like Apple!

    The theme is really cool, but your previous theme was also Good. BTW you sidebar has grown pretty long

    Comment by Saman Sadeghi 2007-04-16 10:44:37

    The last theme was a three column theme, so I had two sidebars. I had to combine them for this two column theme - but I actually removed a lot of stuff from the sidebars!! This one is nice because you (the viewer) can collapse and move items around!

    wow!! I like it!! I need to revamp my site…I’m not a huge fan of it right now, and its running really slow right now as well. But, I’m in the middle of exams, and I’m trying not to let my blogging take my time away from studying, hence the lack of activity on my site recently. :cry:
