Thought 4 The Day: the american
There is one more theme that should be considered for the competition, however it isn’t listed here with the others. Denis Somar created “Taft” and submitted it on time to the proper address, etc. However - the initial submission was huge (1.7MB) so I asked him to see if he could bring it down in size. He’s cut it down to just over 500KB, but that is still a bit big. My concern is that if I included it with the others in the Shadow Divers, someone on a dialup connection would get a pretty nasty surprise as they are clicking through the themes.
The solution we came up with is to keep Taft hosted on Denis’s server, and I’d link to it from here. He has set up a test blog so you can check it out - it’s great work.
Without further ado, I present OpenWeb's Excellent.
