Welcome to my new website!

Welcome to eBrice.com V2.0 beta. This will be Amanda & Brice’s new home site for news, info, photos, and other miscellaneous stuff. I built this site using free blog/weblog software called WordPress. WordPress is a state-of-the-art semantic personal publishing platform with a focus on aesthetics, web standards, and usability.

I stumble across the software while trying to find free guestbook PHP script for my wedding website. I thought, cool, a blog interface for ebrice.com. Within five minutes I had it up and running on my website the day before Christmas. Let the fun begin! Then I started to play with different themes and plug-ins for WordPress. I started with coolblue theme for awhile and then switch to copyblogger theme.

I was going to leave it alone and make my own theme. That was…until I found mimbo e-magazine theme. That is what I had vision my site to look like and what you are currently viewing. Over the weekend I started to customize mimbo theme to my liking.
