It's too shocking and "in your face" - it may be called "Almost Spring", but there's nothing suave about it :P Aye - I don’t think I’ll be using Fantastico for the next upgrade ;)

It's a very non-techy theme -- good on its own merits -- but just a bit odd for J_K9 @ Linux. Hope you can recreate that Tux theme you were designing. Yeah, somehow this blog is just not “you” now.

I've changed theme, in the meantime. I actually like this one quite a lot :) I may change the colours to grey, though - but it is quite nice.

If so I'm sure it's easy to delete folders without a problem. You can even use Konqueror as a simple FTP browser. Haven’t you got FTP access, J_K9?

I guess I've learnt the hard way :P Hari - Nope. Well, I do, but it's using their Java FTP client, which is a bit odd... I'll try deleting it from there though, for what it's worth. :) And what do you think of this theme? If I changed the colours, I don't think it'd look too bad.

I quite liked the old look and the look of the testblog looks pretty cool. Better get it fixed before school starts :) I quite like the new theme - you still need to personalise it though.

It shouldn't take me long to customise this, though - but I'll only do that if I can't get K2 working. Handy - Thanks for the links. I'll update it (manually, heh) right away :) Alison - Yes, I'm afraid I will... I liked the old theme too, but changes are good, and I'd had that one for quite a few months. Actually, the real reason I've changed theme is because the Wordpress update broke the old one (and I decided to go for a different design when I discovered that) :P Hehe. Ray - Aye!

Oh, the trick with your "next time" plan is remember you have those URI values pointing at /linux in your admin Options -> General page.... your approach will work up until you want to run the upgrade.php script. Then it goes all pear-shaped. :-\ Grats on the upgrade!

But to minimise it. And was I meant to run that script (upgrade.php)? I did everything manually, as the wiki describes.. So, if I upgraded the linux2/ one manually, then deleted linux/ and renamed linux2/ linux/, it should work just fine :) I don't think I'm going to be able to get K2 working, so I'm sticking with this theme. I'll customise it tomorrow! Thanks, Handy ;)

I'm amused at the various computers/browsers we've used during this exchange. Is that a plugin that adds 'em to the comments? I gotta get me some of that.

Check it out here: <a href="http://priyadi.net/archives/2005/03/29/wordpress-browser-detection-plugin/" rel="nofollow">click</a> It works just fine on Wordpress 2.0.x, by the way ;) Hehe :)
