We all like to watch cartoon at home when we were a child. The cartoon characters were the heroes in my mind at that time. They are impressed upon my memory for a long time though I’m grow up. I like the funny Mickey Mouse and Donald duck, and the brave Spider Man, Iron Man and some other heroes. Sometime I have dreamed to be one of them.

But have you ever think about the the Mickey Mouse can be a great hero, such as to be the spider mouse. There are some funny photos to show the strange mix of Disney and Marvel cartoon characters.

The folding bike become more and more popular in the city, because they are small and can be folded down easily.

All the folding bike designers want to develop a bike which the simplest, the fast to fold and the smallest possible package. And now the Eco // 07 bike designed by Victor Aleman come up to show it’s the best folding bike.

As we know the main structure of the folding bike can be folded down when we want to take it to the outside. The Eco // 07 bike no only have the structure fold system, but also have wheel fold system, you can fold down along its wheel. So it become more smaller then other bike.

The Wheel is composed of six modules, each one has a double pivot in the joints, this allows the wheel to fold and become smaller, the spokes are contained in the inner structure of the wheel, when you unfold the system, the spokes rotate to the center of the mechanism where it attaches to the center of the wheel.

The archives page can show how many articles you have been write, and when you wrote this articles. There are many wordpress plugin that can build your wordpress archives page, such as Clean Archives Reloaded, WP-EasyArchives and so on.

If you do not like to use so much wordpress plugin, you can build the archives page yourself. Do some copy-edit to your page.php file, you can have your own archives page.

1. Copy you page.php file of your wordpress theme and rename it as archives.php. Add this code to the header of the file before <?php get_header(); ?>.

<?php
/*
Template Name: Archives
*/
?>

2. Add this code below the function <?php the_content(); ?>, or replace the function as you like.

<?php
// echo archives start
$lastpost = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT ID FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_date <'" . current_time('mysql') . "' AND post_status='publish' AND post_type='post' AND post_password='' ORDER BY post_date DESC LIMIT 1");
$output = get_option('hfy_archives_'.$lastpost);
 
if(empty($output)){
 $output = '';
 $wpdb->query("DELETE FROM $wpdb->options WHERE option_name LIKE 'hfy_archives_%'");
 // Get all of the months that have posts
 $monthquery = "SELECT DISTINCT YEAR(post_date) AS year, MONTH(post_date) AS month, count(ID) as posts FROM " . $wpdb->posts . " WHERE post_date <'" . current_time('mysql') . "' AND post_status='publish' AND post_type='post' AND post_password='' GROUP BY YEAR(post_date), MONTH(post_date) ORDER BY post_date DESC";
 $monthresults = $wpdb->get_results($monthquery);
 
 if ($monthresults) {
 // Loop through each month
 foreach ($monthresults as $monthresult) {
 $thismonth    = zeroise($monthresult->month, 2);
 $thisyear    = $monthresult->year;
 
 // Get all of the posts for the current month
 $postquery = "SELECT ID, post_date, post_title, comment_count FROM " . $wpdb->posts . " WHERE post_date LIKE '$thisyear-$thismonth-%' AND post_date AND post_status='publish' AND post_type='post' AND post_password='' ORDER BY post_date DESC";
 $postresults = $wpdb->get_results($postquery);
 
 if ($postresults) {
 // The month year title things
 $text = sprintf('%s %d', $month[zeroise($monthresult->month,2)], $monthresult->year);
 $postcount = count($postresults);
 $output .= '<p>' . $text . '&nbsp;(&nbsp;<span>' . count($postresults) . '</span>&nbsp;posts&nbsp;)</p>';
 $output .= "<ul class='archiveslist'>\n";
 
 foreach ($postresults as $postresult) {
 if ($postresult->post_date != '0000-00-00 00:00:00') {
 $url = get_permalink($postresult->ID);
 $arc_title    = $postresult->post_title;
 if ($arc_title)
 $text = wptexturize(strip_tags($arc_title));
 else
 $text = $postresult->ID;
 $title_text = 'read more &quot;' . wp_specialchars($text, 1) . '&quot;';
 $output .= '    <li>' . mysql2date('m-d', $postresult->post_date) . ':&nbsp;' . "<a href='$url' title='$title_text'>$text</a>";
 $output .= '&nbsp;(' . $postresult->comment_count . ')';
 $output .= "</li>\n";
 }
 }
 $output .= "</ul>\n\n";
 }
 }
 update_option('hfy_archives_'.$lastpost,$output);
 }
 else{
 $output = '<strong>'. __('ERROR:') .'</strong> '. __('No items were found to be displayed.') .'';
 }
}
 echo $output;
//echo archives end
?>

When you finish this coding, upload the archives.php file to your wordpress theme directory. At this point the archives functions have been created, and you can use it to show your archives posts.

Archives Template

Go to the dashboard, create a new page name as Archives and select the Archives as the page template. Click to see your new page after you publish it. You can see the archives page show all your wrote post by post.

The archives page can list the articles monthly and show the comment number at the end of each post. The list will update when you post a new articles, so don’t be confused when the list show the wrong comment number.

The tags cloud page can show the most discussed topics to your readers.Using the wp_tag_cloud function can add the tag cloud in your wordpress page. You can learn more about wp_tag_cloud function from wordpress codex. But the default tag cloud in wordpress show in single color, it’s blankness and hard to read. So if you make the tag cloud show up colorful, the readers can easily get your main topics and know what are you talking about in your blog.

Colorful Tag Cloud

If you have installed the simple tags wordpress plugin, you can use the function <?php st_tag_cloud(); ?> to add the colorful tag cloud. But if you didn’t, we can tell you an easily way to add the colorful tag cloud without any plugin in wordpress. You can see the demo from my colorful tag cloud page.

Firstly, open the functions.php file in your theme directory, copy the subjacent code and paste it in your functions.php file.

//Start of colorful tag cloud
function colorCloud($text) {
 $text = preg_replace_callback('|<a (.+?)>|i', 'colorCloudCallback', $text);
 return $text;
}
function colorCloudCallback($matches) {
 $text = $matches[1];
 $color = dechex(rand(0,16777215));
 $pattern = '/style=(\'|\")(.*)(\'|\")/i';
 $text = preg_replace($pattern, "style=\"color:#{$color};$2;\"", $text);
 return "<a $text>";
}
add_filter('wp_tag_cloud', 'colorCloud', 1);
//End of colorful tag cloud

Add the subjacent code to where you want the tag cloud show. And it’s done, you can see the colorful tag cloud in your wordpress blog now.

After you finish the wordpress theme design in Photoshop or firework, you should start your theme coding. Using the wordpress theme framework can save your coding time from the design. Theme framework is the powerful tool for the designers and developers. You just pat attention to make your theme looks awesome in Photoshop or firework, and don’t worry about the coding of your theme.

You will find that it’s not a hard thing to design the wordpress theme after using the theme framework. I still remember I finish my first theme in two days base on the framework. Although, it isn’t an awesome theme, but I still love it very much. There’re some free framework I like, they’re prefect and easy to be used, and they are free for all.

Sandbox [view]

This is the first theme framework I used. Sandbox has the prefect coding, full widgets compatibility and valid XHTML 1.0

Hybird [view]

I had been introduce Hybird before, it an awesome free wordpress theme, you can get more information from here. Follow this guide you will know how to build your child theme from Hybird.

Thematic [view]

Thematic is a clear and powerful theme. It’s perfect to be used as a clear theme or a blank theme for development, fully search engine optimized, and ready for the popular wordpress plugins.

WP Framework [view]

A blank WordPress Theme Framework that’s everything you need, and nothing you don’t.

Basis Theme [view]

Basis comes with a pre-defined set of templates. The otherwise empty style sheet provides a list of IDs und class-names which have already been used in the templates. The theme is widget-ready and introduces a number of custom functions in functions.php.
