After overwhelming feedback by The Times community, v1.3 is the most exciting yet! With a major overhaul of the Header, Tabbed Module, and Options Panel I’ve added 11 new features all while streamlining the code to make The Times load faster.

If you haven’t done so, be sure to upgrade to Wordpress 2.9 to take advantage of the Logo Upload/Edit feature now standard in The Times.

Greg Rickaby dESIGN is proud to present:
