			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I keep visiting all these cool websites, each with useful techniques or tips and tricks or even just a cool design, and I bookmark them, but I never visit them again. I then look in my bookmarks to look for something specific and find I have a gabillion bookmarks that make no sense to me because they&#8217;re all just website names. I remember why I bookmarked the sites when I bookmarked them, but months and sometimes years later, I can&#8217;t recall for the life of me why I bookmarked that site.<span id="more-1961"></span></p>
<p>What works for me is a list with the reason why I bookmarked something, I guess something kinda like what <a href="http://delicious.com">Delicious</a> offers, but I think it&#8217;s more useful for me on my own site because I can do more than just add snippets of text. So starting today, I created a new category, Useful Things as a place to stick all the stuff such as links or pics of things I might need later.</p>
<h3>3nhanced.com &#8211; Photoshop, CSS, JavaScript tips and tricks</h3>
<p>A cool website by Jonathan Snook that has a lot of cool tips and tricks for Adobe Photoshop. I originally came here looking for WordPress badges for my website, and found Jonathan&#8217;s post on <a href="http://3nhanced.com/photoshop/how-to-make-a-badass-wordpress-logo/">How To Make A Badass WordPress Logo</a>. I was also further enticed by his cool WordPress theme and was specifically drawn in on how he did post thumbnails. It doesn&#8217;t look like it&#8217;s been updated recently and there isn&#8217;t many posts, but it&#8217;s still worth bookmarking.</p>

<h3>Prelovac.com &#8211; WordPress Plugin: Snazzy Archives</h3>
<p>Vladimir Prelovac has been on a roll with writing great WordPress plugins, but the one plugin that really caught my eye is his cool fancy <a href="http://www.prelovac.com/vladimir/wordpress-plugins/snazzy-archives">Snazzy Archives</a>. It&#8217;s one of the few plugins that I can confidently say I would pay for. The concept is wonderful and it is visually stunning. Here&#8217;s a <a href="http://www.prelovac.com/vladimir/archive-spec">live demo</a>. It also have various configurations that you can use.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://bui4ever.com/files/2008/09/snazzy-screenshot-1.png"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1964" src="http://bui4ever.com/files/2008/09/snazzy-screenshot-1.png" alt="" width="364" height="239" /></a></p>
<p>For those that are interested, Vladimir is also responsible for the <a href="http://www.prelovac.com/vladimir/wordpress-plugins/live-blogroll">Live Blogroll</a>, <a href="http://www.prelovac.com/vladimir/wordpress-plugins/wp-wall">WP Wall</a>, and <a href="http://www.prelovac.com/vladimir/wordpress-plugins/theme-test-drive">Theme Test Drive</a>. He&#8217;s also the creator of the Amazing Grace WordPress theme that <a href="http://ocaoimh.ie/">Donncha</a> is currently using on his site.</p>
<h3>Blogohblog.com &#8211; 10 WordPress Hacks to Make Your Life Easy</h3>
<p>I originally stumbled upon <a href="http://www.blogohblog.com/10-wordpress-hacks-to-make-your-life-easy/">this link</a> from <a href="http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2008/08/28/wordpress-hacks-21-tips-to-make-you-smile/">WeblogToolsCollection.com</a> and found it to be a great post. <a href="http://www.blogohblog.com/about/">Jai Nischal Verma</a> lists 10 very useful code hacks for WordPress theme developers. The topics covered are:</p>
<ol>
<li>Displaying Gravatars in comments &#8211; specifically the code and CSS necessary to have Gravatars appear in the comments section of your theme</li>
<li>Image Gallery in WordPress &#8211; the lines of code with the CSS so that you can take advantage of WordPress 2.5&#8242;s new built-in Gallery</li>
<li>Adding a &#8220;Subscribe to feed&#8221; message after every post &#8211; a simple way to remind readers to subscribe to your RSS feed</li>
<li>Displaying Twitter messages on your blog</li>
<li>Displaying Authors&#8217; Bio</li>
<li>Categories drop down</li>
<li>Archives drop down</li>
<li>Adding 125&#215;125 Ads to your sidebar</li>
<li>Displaying most commented (popular) posts &#8211; this is a way to display the most commented posts without a plugin, but rather the code is directly integrated into the theme</li>
<li>Adding a Print Button to your posts &#8211; people sometimes forget to do this for their themes. Make it easy for people to print out the useful information on your website! Don&#8217;t forget to style for print also.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Noupe.com &#8211; Most Desired WordPress Hacks: 11 Common Requests and Fixes</h3>
<p>This was the <a href="http://www.noupe.com/wordpress/most-desired-wordpress-hacks-11-common-requests-and-fixes.html">first link</a> in the same WeblogToolsCollection.com article above that is also incredible useful for WordPress theme developers. It&#8217;s already got 100 Diggs and 90 comments, so it&#8217;s a worthwhile bookmark. The eleven topics covered are:</p>
<ol>
<li>Using Custom Fields to Display Post Thumbnails</li>
<li>Avoiding Duplicate Content &#8211; This is important, not only for SEO, but because there are times you need to run two loops such as the case with Featured posts.</li>
<li>Login Box in your sidebar</li>
<li>Creating a menu Showing Certain Categories</li>
<li>Display Categories in a Dropdown box</li>
<li>Most Wanted Posts and Categories hacks</li>
<li>Post Author Related Solutions</li>
</ol>
<p>I also like Noupe&#8217;s WordPress theme also. It&#8217;s nicely designed with nice colors.</p>
