For those who do not know about CouponPress Please Refer to my Older Post:

How to Make a Coupon Website With CouponPress

Also a few days back, I bought the whole Package, yes the PremiumPress All In One theme Package and I have actually fallen in Love with these themes. I am cooking some sites with these exclusive recipes which I will be serving in a few days time.  I really like the quality of these themes (All of them Couponpress, DirectoryPress, ShopperPress) and the fact that you can easily customize it. And even if you get an error while customizing or if you are not able to understand how some things work, you can just leave a support ticket in the support section of the website and the ticket is responded in less than 4 hours (everytime!). I really am impressed with the PremiumPress theme support.

All in all PremiumPress theme’s (specially CouponPress) is a huge money earning opportunity for you. Well Most of the people would say there is no easy way out in Affiliate Marketing but well I would say that it is false, because there are easy ways out. The most easiest way being creating a Coupon Site and Maintaining It.

So if some of you are having a double mind in buying this awesome theme than I would suggest you not to because this will be one of those 59$ you spend that you won’t regret.

Ok! I quit Blabbering now and just present to you the July Coupon Code for PremiumPress (Works on all theme of PremiumPress i.e. Couponpress, Shopperpress, Classifieds Theme, RealtorPress)

Are you sick of it? Well I am. So recently I came across a solution to minimize this buzzing sound of Vuvuzela if you are watching the World Cup live on your PC.

The solution is a small free program from Stardock called the Devuvuzelator. This program will help you to filter your live World Cup broadcast in real-time (ESPN3, BBC, etc), choosing which level of de-vuvuzela’ing filtering you find most suitable.

Even though there are other filters and softwares too to reduce the Vuvuzela’s noise but all those require and installation. This one does not. Just download and run it.

The program applies a simple filter to the annoying sound of the Vuvuzels played during the match broadcast in your system. The filter is adjustable in strength, and you can enable or disable it with the tick of a checkbox.

The only bad thing about this program is that it only works with Windows.

You can download the program here:

Devuvuzelator [Stardock]

I hope this program will help you have a better World Cup experience. Wakka Wakka.

But just Yesterday I found out that a new theme framework called Chameleon has been released by PliablePress (A new theme Development company).

PliablePress is a new wordpress development company that launched just yesterday. Along with its own launch, it also launched the Chameleon WordPress Theme Framework and an array of cool themes based on Chameleon.

PliablePress

This Chameleon Framework shows a lot of promises and can very soon in the future give a very lethal competition to Thesis.

The whole point of Chameleon is to let you control your site, easily. You can customize dozens of things in it, without ever looking near a single piece of code. Everything is done through a simple-to-use control panel. You just click a button and you’re done!

Let’s take some examples of what all you can do, without ever leaving the admin panel!

• Enter all of your social media addresses. Every theme will then add them to your site for you.
• Choose where to put your navbar, and what pages you want on it.
• Add an expanded footer, where you can set all of the content by just dragging on widgets.
• Enable or disable trackbacks (And either way, we’ve separated them from your regular comments for you)
• Control every piece of text on the site (All of your form labels, comment area messages etc. can be set in here!)
• Enable/Disable a featured post slider, and tell it where to get the posts from.
• Use drag and drop to add elements to your postmeta areas (e.g. Want to list the number of comments and the date a post was written, but not show the tags? That’s easy!)
• Add in after-post content, like social sharing options (Digg, Twitter etc.), or even an author bio!
• Control your <title> tags sitewide, so they always show search engines exactly what you want them to show.

As I said earlier, along with Chameleon, PliablePress also released a set of great themes based on the Chameleon Framework. If you are too lazy to customize Chameleon Framework according to your needs than you could use any of the following themes which are already customized for you in many ways.

Creative Soul

This is the theme for creative and adventurous people with a little flair in their personality. I can guarantee your friends don’t have a theme like this. It’s bright, lovely to look at and you won’t forget it in a hurry. It comes in 3 color choices, but it’s hard to do any of them justice in the small preview here, sorry!

Creative Soul

Oracle

This magazine/newspaper style theme gives your site an air of authority and an extremely professional look. We’ve put a lot of time into the finer details of making this theme stunning. It’s crisp, clear and we think you’re going to love it!

Oracle

Backdrop

Backdrop is a magazine style site with a very modern design, it’s perfect for sites with a lot of imagery (And even more perfect if you’d like your content well organized and color-coded for simple navigation!). In particular, gadget, movie and other review sites, you’ll want to take a look!

Backdrop

Chameleon

You’ve heard plenty about how much Chameleon can do by now, but did you know that it’s also a great looking theme on its own? Chameleon is ultra-clean, with beautiful typography and enough design style and subtle touches to make it stand out from the rest.

Chameleon

Creative Soul Minimal

When we made Creative Soul, we knew the swirls and heavy design style would only appeal to certain people. That was a shame though, because Creative Soul has a huge number of fine details that you don’t want to miss out on.

So we created Creative Soul Minimal! It’s for those who want all the charm and elegance of Creative Soul, but a little less full on.
