So we all know what a geek I am when it comes to anything visual- graphics, icons, fonts, you name it. I found this little gem on one of my FAVORITE plugin resources- CodeCanyon.net. If you haven’t taken a look at CodeCanyon, you really need to (it’s truly a treasure! It’s created by the Envato team who are also responsible for all the plus sites as well as the rest of the Marketplace sites for awesome Web stuff- graphics, audio, templates, video, you name it!).
Anywho….
I have a tendency to cruise over to CodeCanyon every few days to see what’s new for WordPress and noticed this little thumbnail right away, so of course clicked on it to see what it was all about. This is a GREAT way to add a fresh look to your widgets- or call attention to something! I LOVE IT! Oh… and I have to mention too that initially when I installed it I received an error msg (note to everyone- unzip it first, then upload the zip file within the download zip file. What can I say- sometimes the obvious just isn’t!). I just used an FTP client and uploaded it! But before I did that I emailed the plugin creator and got a response back in less than a day. Great support Gordon- thanks!
Here’s a little video where you can see the plugin in action! If you think you want to give it a go- they do offer a free demo download, so you can of course test it and see if this is something you want to invest in (btw- this is a whopping $6! How FAB is that?).
Make sure to check out the rest of WebFactory’s WordPress plugins on CodeCanyon too!
