For those of you who have visited my blog before, you may notice that my blog is rocking a new theme. Yes, after over 4 years I’m finally ditching my very hacked up version of the “Neat!” theme for something a bit more modern. It’s called Mystique and it was made by digitalnature.
I’m still making minor tweaks to the theme, so bear with me while I make the transition and feel free to report any issues in the comments for this post.

Wow, that’s.. a fantastic theme. I’m tempted to use it myself! (After much hacking/configuration, of course.)

How did you get the “My Latest Tweets” to show a small picture instead of the stupidly huge one? Or… is it a twitter.com based script?

Your websnapr thingy is throwing up limit exceeded errors. I don’t know if there’s a way to just not show it when it errors, but that would look more professional.

Clegko: I’m using whatever Twitter widget came with the theme.
PacketCollision: Yeah, I’m in the process of killing it.

Found a feature bug! When on the home page, and you hover over one of the page icon things, the dropdown is obscured by the (frankly awesome) Ken Block video.

Yeah, I know. It’s a Flash issue. It’s on my todo list.

I noticed that as well. It’s my Local Time plugin.

WordPress has the local time built in now. I’m guessing you figured that out though.

Yeah. In Options>General. For Timezone I have it set to Chicago for example. It automatically changes for Daylight savings time as well. This has been around since 2.7 I believe.

Ah, yes, that localizes the times on your blog to you, the blog owner, but what about your readers? I was referring to this plugin that uses Javascript to display all date/times in the reader’s timezone.

The only place I know where you can get the theme is Automattic’s SVN repository:
http://svn.automattic.com/wpcom-themes/neat/
If you have no idea how to use SVN, I can make a ZIP for you.

I just set up my first blog and I was fortunate to find this theme. It is awesome. I found your site while trying to find out how to add a breadcrumb to the theme.
I see you have managed to get some of the other apps I need to get running on my blog.
Way to go!
PS – This theme, Mystique, can be downloaded at http://digitalnature.ro/projects/mystique/

Hi, I also use the theme Mystique, but in home page, for the post shows only one category… in your post I see all categories. How can I do to get the same result?
Thanks in advance and compliments for ur blog, it’s very useful!
