Based on the Thematic framework and WordPress, the new theme uses child theme functionality that’s built in to WordPress. It’s still Thematic, just a heavily modified version. Casual site visitors may not be interested in the details of what is incorporated in the new theme, but we should at least mention that the entire site was built on a Linux workstation using all open source software. With Ubuntu Linux as the operating system, we used jEdit and Geany (both great programmer’s editors) for the necessary coding chores. All graphics editing and creation were handled by GIMP, an open source Photo$hop equivalent. If you are interested in details beyond what we’ve mentioned here, drop us a line, we’d be happy to share. There might be a few little things to tidy up here and there, but for all intents and purposes we’re done redesigning the site. Now we can return to adding new content on a regular basis.

Have a look around, hope you enjoy what you see! – The Two Hearts

Lately, our time has been spent building and keeping other web sites updated, for both paying and pro bono customers and friends. We have updated the site software to the latest WordPress version, and the theme is none other than Tarski, an elegant and flexibly coded work.

We’ll get back to publishing stuff for ourselves just as soon as we get to the point where everyone else is happy. Meanwhile, have a look around – there might be some stuff in the archives you might have missed, and we have embedded a selection of music in our Music page you can listen to – some good stuff there!
