Just a quick-post to introduce the Invalidfile.Press theme! It is based on Portfolio Press, a dark and minimalist WordPress theme I found linked via Smashing Magazine’s list of 100 Amazing Free WordPress Themes for 2009. It’s an old but great list whether you’re looking for design inspiration and/or wanting to download some themes to try out.

The original design has been tweaked a bit – sprinkled with some CSS3 goodies (border-radius! box-shadow!), a more prominent search box, menus, tag-line rotation and so on..

The Frustrated Computer Guy logo is inspired by the stick figures of xkcd. He was drawn in Inkscape, and touched-up with the GIMP. Hopefully, his presence will help counter-balance all those straight lines

Note: The new theme is not compatible with Internet Explorer 6. The website content is readable but the logos look absolutely dreadful. You have been warned!

ADDENDUM: Visitors using Internet Explorer 6 will now be served with the cutdown edition of Invalidfile.Press – basically the same theme without the nifty logos. And just to rub it in, it will also insult the user’s discerning taste in browsers Apologies to all you corporate users who are forced to use IE6
