New Template Available! More Updates Coming Very Soon!

The very aptly named template, Minimalist is now ready for use. As you might expect, simplicity is at it's core and it sports a very uncluttered look, great for people who want to highlight their writing more than anything else. Here's a preview, just give the pic a click:

Aside forn this new template, we have another one in the works called Dfire and that will be available quite soon as well. Also, please do watch out for some new features that will be implemented in the next few days. Most exciting perhaps and certainly one of the most requested of these that will be online soon is the ability to drag and drop the sidebar elements so you can arrange them any which way you might like. Also, the sidebar will soon be open to external widgets. You can expect to see that up very very soon. We will also be allowing you folks to enable or disable the Google ads that appear in your sidebar. 

We are constantly developing and polishing I.PH to make your blogging experience all the better. Your feedback is very important to us. If you haven't yet, please do sign up for the I.PH forums. Not only can you discuss I.PH and it's features there, you can also join a community of bloggers that is growing steadily in strength everyday. Also, it's actually quite fun and you find new blogs to read and new readers to read your blogs. Cool eh? Hope to see you there! Good day folks. Blog on!

Here’s the Cherry on Top!

Candies and treats and now a cherry to top things off! Wordpress compatible templates, Dipdolt and Contaminated, are now available for your i.ph blogs! And we're looking to add some more in the near future. Here's a sneak peek:

Do you have any Wordpress templates you want to use for your i.ph blog? Then join the i.ph forums to submit your favorite.

Who wants Candy?!

I know I do! This Candy isn't made of sugar, but I'm telling you, it sure is SWEET! It's the newest i.ph template, and it's avalable right now. Here's a taste test:

Yet Another Brand New Template!

Yup. Because we love you guys so much we're giving you another brand spanking new template. Folks, allow me to present to you, Transparency:

The cool thing about this template that some regions are actually well…transparent, allowing more of the back ground image to be visible. I particularly like removing the header image  and just leave the title for a very clean look.  We know that with the coming new year a lot of you are considering a site re design. So check out Transparency. And do watch out for even more templates very soon! 

Video Posting Now Possible! New Template Also Available!

As promised, you can now easily post a video in your article. It supports youtube, google video and metacafe. It's easy too. All you have to do is copy the URL of the video you want to include in your article. Click on "Insert Video" on the upper right hand corner of your post editor and paste the URL in the field provided. Choose the alignment and click on "Insert". It's that simple. And it looks a little something like this:

We look forward to seeing your videos!

And we have more good news. A new template is now available. It's called  Empyrean and it looks like this:

What sets Empyrean apart is that it allows you to customize 3header images. We will have even more templates available for you early in January so do look out for that.

We also made a couple of changes designed to make your blogging experience more enjoyable. For instance, now you can login to your i.ph account using your google  account details. That's one less set of login details to remember. Also, your new albums will now show up to 40 thumbnails as opposed to the original 8, giving you and your readers a better preview of the album contents. We've made tweaks for the post editor to load faster, addressed some of the bugs and enchanced the backend processing as well as the user interface. Like we keep mentioning, we are committed to constantly developing i.ph to make your blogging experience much much better. 

Fresh New Features!!!

It's still a good 19 days before Christmas and although I haven't even started with my own Christmas shopping yet, we here at i.ph are happy to give you an early Christmas present. By next week, you will now be able to insert videos into your post. Check it out:

We've been getting a lot of requests for this feature and now it's almost here. Cool eh?

But we're not done with the gift giving yet. We are also releasing 4 new templates very early in January. But who knows, if you kiddies have been specially good this year, then Santa may just throw them in before the year ends. Here's a sneak peek:

Rest assured that we will continue churning out even more features to further enrich your blogging experience. We still have a lot of exciting things that are currently under development. Of course we are working hard on these things for you guys. We'd really love to hear what else you would like to have on your i.ph blog. Please feel free to join in our i.ph forum where you'll get to talk with me and our chief developers. This is all for now.  We hope you all are enjoying the Christmas season. Happy holidays!!!
