Finally, the 5$ themes club is up and running! Please have a look at the original announcement made on the WPdesigner blog for the full story, but just to get you interested enough I’ll tell you what this club is about: it’s a paid membership community where for just 5$ a year you’re guaranteed to have access to at least 12 unique WordPress themes. Sounds like a sweet deal!

Here are the highlights of the 5$ Themes Club:

  • 5$ a year is all it takes to become a full member
  • No copyrights in the footer (you’re not supposed to claim the authorship of any theme though)
  • You can use any theme on an unlimited number of domains
  • Great preview page listing all the best features (here’s a teaser: the Gossip theme)
  • Free technical support (ticker system or forum)

Update the copyright year in footer sections of your blogs!

January 3, 2008 by 2 Comments

Now that we’re all in the new year of 2008, it is the perfect time for you to update the copyright year in footers of your blogs. This is something I used to neglect, but like any blogger, the more you write and the more you spend time maintaining and updating your posts, the better it is to have copyright years updated early into the new year.

I still remember the times when it took me almost half a year to notice that some of my blogs were still claiming the copyright period on them to cover everything up to the previous year, sometimes even the year before, but if you’re serious about protecting your intellectual property, better get into the habit of updating these copyright years early.
