Love my new Theme
I really didn’t like my last Wordpress theme. Was amazingly functional, but was NOT interesting at all.
Most blog themes, are fixed width which I think is about the dumbest thing in the entire world. In the day and age where PCs and Macs come standard with resolutions in excess of 1280×1024 not being able to take advantage of the entire screen is just plain wacko. Especially for my blogs. I write blogs that have some pretty involved screen shots that if you try and place into a “fixed width” template you have like 300 pixels “width” for a screen shot. Super lame.
Anyhow, attribution has been top of mind lately. It IS important to attribute creative works and I believe people should give credit where credit is due, not necessarily be FORCED to credit: that’s why it’s called “giving credit.”
Thanks “Tiga” and “Ozh” for a great template. I’m thrilled. Thank you for your contribution and your work is appreciated here!
What do you think? Anyone care to say whether they like this theme? Dislike it?
Hi Nic,
Your new theme is better than the old one. Talking about Pentaho, I like to know from you, how can we impove the Mondrian user interface. It´s supossed to be Jpivot (any other front end tools?). For instance, how can we save OLAP analysis and stored it in a personal folder. I´ve seen, we can do this in Openi.
Congratulations for your blog,
Zan
The new theme looks great on my Palm in Blazer. It might have more impact if the 2 columns were switched so that the main content showed first on a small screen. When I get a chance I’ll look at it through other platforms.
Ah, looking at your blog using Firefox2 on MacOSX, I see that it’s actually three columns. Viewing source I see the main divs: header, left-sidebar, right-sidebar, center- including the posts, and footer. Ah, and looking at the dependencies in the CSS, I see that, like our own three column design for the TeleInterActive Press powered by b2evolution [a cousin of Wordpress, in that both forked from b2/cafélog], you can’t get around having the left-sidebar followed by the right-sidebar followed by the center-STUFF as the dependencies demand that left pushes right pushes center. Your design does not use any percentage dependencies though, but has a fairly innovative use of left and right margins with a minimum width so that the center-coumn doesn’t collapse.
It renders well in Firefox 1.5 on SLED10, and IE6 on WindowsXPsp2. A good looking design.
Hi Nic,
Your new theme is cool and gr8. I love to read your blog on pentaho.
Also, I have a question about analysis in pentaho. I have RC3 build. I am able to create analysis views using mysql or access dbs but when I try to click show source data then it gives me sql error. Is that a bug or problem with mysql/access. I was using just a simple table with two columns company and timespent and cube is displaying companies with sumoftimespent.
Well I got the solution and cause. With cube designer, it appends tablename.column name as level name. Now when driildown query is build, it makes sql like select “TABLE”.”COLUMN” as “TABLE”.”COLUMN”, …. from “TABLE” as “TABLE” WHERE …
Now here, in alias “.” is not allowed i.e it cannot be “TABLE”.”COLUMN” in alias. So SQL error is being generated. It happends in MySQL, Access and MSSql dbs. I think cube desinger or drilldown query component ( i.e show source data query builder) needs to take care of this while creating query.
Nicholas,
Your new theme is very nice, especially the colors that you have chosen.

Pretty interesting, way better than half of the worthless content on the web these days.
