Let’s say you have the picture of a flame and you want to change the background. In order to do that you first must make the background transparent. But how can you do that? You can do it by hand using a brush but it’s not quite the effect I was looking for. So I [...]
WordPress 2.8 în limba română
Traducerea versiunii 2.8 este cam 50% bazată pe traducerea versiunii 2.7 realizată de Catholica NETwork. În plus am mai adus următoarele modificări faţă de versiunea celor de la Catholica NETwork:
Cuvintele theme, template şi style nu mai sunt toate traduse prin şablon, ci theme este acum temă, template a rămas şablon, iar style este stil.

New Plugin: Talky WordPress
We have a new plugin, one that makes WordPress talk! It adds talky sound events for publishing and deleting posts or pages, plugin activation and deactivation and theme activation.

312211
