The theme is “Bigage,” based on Derek Punsalan’s “Foliage” theme. The last theme was also one of his. I hadn’t intended to use another Derek Punsalan theme, but hey… the guy knows what he’s doin’. #

The picture of the hatching elephant is by Oliver Häberlin. #

I borrowed the archive page template from the great K2 theme. #

I develop with CSSEdit2, TextMate, Photoshop, etc. #
