Steal From the Best
Filed under: Asides | September 19th, 2004
When Blogger ditched the banner ads for that small tasteful bar at the top that was both attractive and functional, I loved it. Now I’m going down my blogroll and I noticed Hanni has created a version of the blogger nav bar for WordPress. It’s got the WP logo, a search box, a Press It link, et cetera. I haven’t even looked at how she’s doing it yet, but very cool! (7)

let me know how you do it, and if I can do it also

It’s simply just a <div> placed at the top of the page body and styled with CSS - isn’t that what most sites do these days?
What I like is the next blog. I’m thinking this might be a good use for the
get_links()WP tag. You could use it like this:get_links(1, '', '', '', TRUE, 'rand', FALSE, FALSE, 1, TRUE), and it would display one random link from your link category 1 . You could just change the first parameter to whatever your bloglist or random link category is.Carthik | September 19th, 2004 @ 6:45 pm
I sent her The List. Hope she has fun with it

Hey! That could be a useful thing to add to the default template of WPMU!

I’ve created an 80×24 logo for this using the “official” Dante font.
Feel free to download it at blog.nuclearmoose.com/wp-content/images/wordpress-80×24.gif.

Craig: You’re a lifesaver! I couldn’t find anyone with the dante font so had to make a clumsy logo myself using Georgia!

Great work, Hanni!
