Is there a reason this information wasn’t announced? Kind of a fluke I saw it here (ambulance chaser that I am, I’m drawn to “Hacked” topics).

In reply to: Mac Safari Working SomtimesYou should also speak with your hosting service. Using Opera (which opens your page) to run your site through the w3.org Validator I get this message:
Sorry! This document can not be checked.
I got the following unexpected response when trying to retrieve <http://www.helpmalawichildren.com/wordpress/>:

If you made recent changes to your domain name (DNS) configuration, you may also want to check that your domain records are correct, or ask your hosting company to do so.

In reply to: Mac Safari Working SomtimesJust so you know, that page doesn’t open for me (using Mac OS X 10.4.9) in Safari, Firefox, Camino or OmniWeb browsers.
It does open in Opera 9.21 for Mac OS X.

In reply to: Be harsh; I like it roughThe grey background on the posts in this forum is #EEEEEE. It works well with black text. A similar light grey might be #F1F1F1.
Scroll down this page for some other grey scale shades:

In reply to: Be harsh; I like it roughI think #707070 is too dark for the text background. It gives me a headache trying to read. Why don’t you pick up a lighter grey tone from one of the faces in the header?

In reply to: How can you add a login.php template?I’m using James’ plugin (v1.1) on three WordPress 2.2 installations which have completely different themes with no issue. Maybe something else is causing your problem

In reply to: Designer using WP as portfolio, what do you think?The thumbnails on your main page are not good. They’re badly cropped. For example, the one on the bottom cuts off the model’s face below his top lip. It’s not well-considered, IMHO. The one on top cuts off the text where the entirety of the words should show, and the Domino’s example cuts off the pizza where it would be better to have the entire pie showing.
I think it would be better to either show a full screenshot of the sites you’ve designed on the front page of your blog or show no screenshot at all.
Also, your theme’s design looms over your work in a way that stresses your theme’s design over and above the work you’re trying to feature. I think that’s a mistake. The theme should take a background to your portfolio and not the other way around.
Good luck!

In reply to: New theme and blog….suggestions?“I’ve tried to keep it anonymous on purpose. I’m not a huge fan of “branding” really.
as far as plugins go . . . anything . . . that really enhance[s] the look, feel and appeal of the site.”
So, you’re looking to enhance the appearance and the appeal of anonymity?
