Valentine's Day is one of those times of year that seem to pull at the hearts of romantics everywhere. It is a time where you can show your love to that special someone in your life. It also signifies a time of change as the long winter begins to dissipate replaced by the thoughts of spring and change. As I started looking around for graphics for Valentine's Day I was quickly overwhelmed to the point that instead of creating a Valentine's-based theme I ended up creating four separate ones. This is the fourth theme, the first was Valentine's Day Theme 1, the second was Valentine's Day Theme 2, and the third was Valentine's Day Theme 3.

One of the most influential products to come out has been the Apple iPod. It has revolutionized the way people listen to music. The iPod has taken many shapes and sizes. One of the most popular has been the Nano which uses flash memory storage and is razor thin. Looking at my daughter's iPod Nano I thought it would make a great subject for a Plurk theme.

While I was searching for a suitable background for my New Years Eve theme I came across another background image that really signified the holiday. I've therefore created a second New Years theme with this background as well. This version features a pair of champagne glasses in a toast with the words Happy New Year at the top of the timeline. Where the first theme is leading up to the clock striking midnight this one captures that magical moment just after the new year arrives.

New Years is an interesting holiday. It comes almost immediately after Christmas so you barely have time to catch your breath before shifting from one celebration to the next. The other thing that is really weird is that we actually commemorate the end of one calendar and the beginning of another. I guess it could be worse, we could celebrate running out of toilet paper.

One of the best contemporary Christmas movies has to be A Christmas Story. There's just something about following poor Ralphie as he tries to convince his parents, teacher, and Santa Claus that a Red Ryder air rifle would be the perfect gift. When this movie makes it's annual appearance on television it signifies the beginning of the Christmas season.

The holiday season kicks off in full gear with Thanksgiving. There is just something special about getting together with family and friends and reflecting on those things in your life that you are most grateful for. At I stopped to think about this I began to count all the blessings I have been given such as a healthy family, wonderful friends, and of course cascading style sheets.

While I was searching for a suitable background for my Veteran's Day theme I came across another background image that really touched me. I've therefore created a second Veteran's Day theme with this background as well. This version features members of the Green Berets as they salute their fellow soldiers and their flag. This simple action should be a reminder to all of us how indebted we are to those who served their country.

As I was thinking about all of the freedoms we enjoy I began to think that perhaps it might be appropriate to create a theme for Veteran's Day to pay tribute to those who have defended our liberties. From the comments that I have received I decided this theme would be a great candidate to share with others so that they too can show how important Veterans have been to our way of life.

As I work through the CSS code for Plurk I sometimes begin to question how things work and whether I can modify them for my own warped use. Since I try not to introduce this madness onto the unsuspecting masses I usually end up updating my own personal profile theme. Sometimes I'll have people ask if I would please share the code so that they too can us it. I'm always more than happy to provide whatever help I can so every so often I'll include a post where I will give you the code from my profile page that you are free to use.

Welcome to Plurk Skins where I'll attempt to teach your Plurk Creature new tricks.  I've set up this site to begin documenting the various aspects of the "Insanely Great" social media service Plurk.  For those of you unaware of this incredible site; it is a micro-blogging service that provides conversational threads for communicating with your friends.  I happened across this site in June and immediately became hooked.  I've met some incredible people and learned a tremendous amount.  The service is available world-wide and gives you an opportunity to meet people with similar interests as yours.  I've become great friends with people from Austria. Australia, Great Britain, Canada, and many other areas of the world.  The system is run by a great set of developers who are meaningfully connected to the community.  As such they are constantly coming out with new features to make the user experience even better.
