Site News

I've been thinking of having a Rhoek.com newsletter for a while now (a way for me to keep you informed of developments in the site and new skin releases), and anyone who's visited the site recently may have seen the register button I added a couple of weeks ago, some of which have signed up. So thanks to everyone who has registering with the site, and today I sent out the first monthly rhoek.com newsletter.

For those who haven't signed up I'm going to be including a link to the HTML version after each issue, links for these will appear in the blog and on a new "newsletter" page which I'll add shortly.

So here it is - the first rhoek.com newsletter.

If you're interested in signing up for the newsletter you can register with rhoek.com here.

I've added my first listing to the official dotnetnuke source for skins, containers, modules and all add-ons DNN related. The dotnetnuke marketplace

I think it's good that the dotnetnuke corporation are offering the same services as snowcovered does, with regards to it being another outlet for designers of skins and modules, it will be interesting to see what the differences between them are in terms of product listings and sales.

Register with rhoek.com to be added to the mailing list for new skin releases and site news.

This will be a monthly e-letter listing any new template dontnetnuke skins and containers, as well as developments in the site and a list of the most recent blog entries.

The first email will go out on the 1st of December.

I'm not a very technical designer when it comes to dotnetnuke, focusing more of my attention on skins, graphics and flash. However I decided today to make an attempt at upgrading the core framework for the site from version 04.05 to 04.07.

It's done, and seemed to go successfully. Below are a couple of links to blog posts highlighting how the upgrade process should be done.

As a web designer I have a set of websites which I visit on a regular basis, for information, inspiration, imagery, and tools. The new resources section of rhoek.com is going to contain links to these sites and web spaces. It's currently only containing 4 links, but this will be updated regularly and I will post entries in my blog whenever this happens.
