Yes it's October 31st, and it's surprisingly bright and sunny in England, but of course cold! As you can see James' Blog has got into the Halloween scene with a special Halloween theme for the blog.

New post thumbnails

James' Blog is now using lovely post thumbnails on it's articles. It's something that I've been wanting to add into the blog for quite some time but with failed attempts of getting a simple enough system, well thanks to my friend Fire G, he sent me the script thats he's using on his own blog over at Fire Studios Although there are WordPress plugins that handle post thumbnails, most seem to be feature happy and kind of distract you from the raw functions you need
