You're more likely to get a response to a specific theme related question in this way.</p> <p>Thanks & enjoy your stay, from the moderation team. </p></div> </div> </li> <li id="post-1611149" class="postitem "> <div class="threadauthor col-3"> <p><img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647im_/http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/0994d5e2e158a24ba8017c2525d78263?s=48&d=monsterid&r=g" class="photo avatar avatar-48" style="height:48px; width:48px;"/><strong><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647/http://profiles.wordpress.org/users/Otto42/">Otto</a></strong><br/> <small><span class="authortitle"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647/http://wordpress.org/support/profile/otto42">Tech Ninja</a></span><br/> Posted 1 year ago <a href="#post-1611149">#</a> </small> </p> </div> <div class="threadpost col-7"> <div class="post"><p>聽 </p></div> </div> </li> </ol> <div id="topic-paging" class="col-3"> <p id="pages"></p> </div> <h2 class="post-form">Topic Closed</h2> <p>This topic has been closed to new replies.</p> </div> <div class="col-2 topicmeta"> <h4>About this Topic</h4> <ul> <li><a class="rsslink" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647/http://wordpress.org/support/rss/topic/welcome-to-the-themes-and-templates-forum">RSS feed for this topic</a></li> <li>Started 1 year ago by mrmist</li> <li><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647/http://wordpress.org/support/topic/welcome-to-the-themes-and-templates-forum#post-1611149">Latest reply</a> from Otto</li> <li id="resolution-flipper">This topic is not a support question</li> </ul> <div class="tags"> <h4>Tags</h4> <ul id="yourtaglist" class="tags-list list:tag"> <li id="tag-116380_211474"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647/http://wordpress.org/tags/how-to-use-these-forums" rel="tag">how to use these forums</a> </li> <li id="tag-9687_211474" class="alt"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647/http://wordpress.org/tags/themes" rel="tag">Themes</a> </li> <li id="tag-1352_211474"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647/http://wordpress.org/tags/welcome" rel="tag">welcome</a> </li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> </div> <br class="clear"/> <script type="text/javascript"> //<![CDATA[ document.write('<scr'+'ipt src="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647/http://crazyegg.com/pages/scripts/23144.js?'+(new Date()).getTime()+'" type="text/javascript"></'+'script>'); //]]> </script> <div id="footer"> <div class="wrapper"> <p> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647/http://wordpress.org/about/privacy/">Privacy</a> | <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647/http://wordpress.org/about/license/">License / GPLv2</a>     See also: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647/http://wordpress.com/?ref=wporg-footer" title="Hassle-free WP hosting">WordPress.com</a> | <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647/http://wordpress.tv/" title="Videos, tutorials, WordCamps">WordPress.TV</a> | <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647/http://central.wordcamp.org/" title="Find a WordPress event near your home">WordCamp</a> | <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647/http://jobs.wordpress.net/" title="Find or post WordPress jobs">WP Jobs</a> | <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647/http://ma.tt/" title="Co-founder of WordPress, an example of what WordPress can do">Matt</a> | <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647/http://wordpress.org/news/feed/" class="rsslink">Blog RSS</a> </p> <iframe src="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647if_/http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FWordPress&layout=standard&show_faces=true&width=450&action=like&font=lucida+grande&colorscheme=light&height=80" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px; height:80px;"></iframe> <h6>Code is Poetry</h6> </div> </div> <script type="text/javascript">_qoptions={qacct:"p-18-mFEk4J448M"};</script> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647js_/http://edge.quantserve.com/quant.js"></script> <noscript><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647im_/http://pixel.quantserve.com/pixel/p-18-mFEk4J448M.gif" style="display: none;" border="0" height="1" width="1" alt=""/></noscript>  <script type="text/javascript" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20110812134647js_/http://s.gravatar.com/js/gprofiles.js"></script> </body> </html>
